"genuinity" poems
on a night where we're not quite in our right minds we say all sorts of different things, and who knows how much of it either of us really means? but regardless of genuinity, we said what we wanted to and in the end, it was for the benefit of who? then when it came to me, you didn't even say you had to go. you were up & done; ~freshly satisfied and ghosting like a pro

one last acronym for you
People judge you for who you are. They always have something to say Even if, they don't know the real story. They'll talk about you silently from behind. You can't blame them. They don't have something to do. It's always their way to **** the time As if doing it will always be fine. Perhaps, there are emotions involved, Emotions that stirred them to act that way, Emotions that they can't handle And they just talk 'bout you to displace it away. People will always bring you down Because they see you'll always have the crown Symbolizing genuinity and royalty. Causing you to be the talk of the town.

lost in a strange world only sense we can find Is in peering through the keyholes Of locked doors we bang our fists and spread the spark hoping its sent down wind setting smoke to the answers within were drawnto the fire like moths to a flame Unwilling to be tamed by the safety belt of the world smoke seeps from the lock and we inhale deep ravenous for the taste of something real the burn we feel goes undetected among the drowning men In this shallow pool Of lukewarm genuinity and over-chlorinated sincerity but we breath the fumes in with a whole new strength we break down the door unleash the deamons begging for more than this unless we become one With the fears, we become none so we rise with the deamons and we rise up above the conscience dont give a **** because we never could fit Within the boundaries Of a newborn dying man these unatainable boundaries never could never will never can

Let the children's laughter, resound in my memory. Soften my heart, remind me of it's genuinity. Whenever patience leaves me.

The Red Button
two lost souls seep through like melding poetry their bodies leak and conform to genuinity svelte as the words and actions they speak beauty steadily unfolds within their skin signifying the imperfections of perfect harmony (n.j.)

the perfect company
I liquidate my words with love As I drink and dine with you To poison you with my perfect drug The only stable cure for a world of webs While you may be caught in mine I'm no spider but a simple butterfly Meant to drink the nectar bleeding from your genuinity

Arachnophobia
How is it even possible For someone to be Remotely as great As you are To me How is it even possible To have all of that Talent Looks Genuinity Protectiveness Love Humour Care Wisdom Warmth Touch All in one person How do you do it How is it even possible For you to be all that In one person From the beaming white smile To the comforting hugs And comforting touch of the knee To the way you move to music From the words of wisdom To the quick wit From the protective caring type To the joking around laughing type How is it possible For all of that To be in one package To be mine I really don't know

Let me love you
I used to believe I knew how to love. I understood romance, and the beauty and genuinity of affection. I was wrong. I was wrong; wrong in my understanding of love. Wrong for believing, impractically, in the idealisation of a romantic love. It has become apparent to me - that love, in meaning, and understanding, is about what you can do for another. It is not affection, affirmation; support, acceptance, romance; but, that love is conditional - until your being can no longer do for someone. For being so wrong, wrong in my perception of love - it has left a bitter-tasting question: do I know love, and how to give a love, that only has meaning - and value - only when you have tangible gain? What is left of our human emotion, of the value of abstract feeling, of a smile, of the journey of knowing, learning, admiring; a person. and being hopelessly overt in passion, interest, intrigue and attraction; the genuinity of being wholeheartedly, fanatically, in love with a person. If the meaning of love is only valued by what a person can do for you; do I really want to give a love of that insignificance?

An ode to love.
You say that fate is the reason why we met, why we fell for each other, why we love. I believe the separation was more fateful than anything. I could never say that I never desired to be with you, see my future with you. But as the lies increased, the meaning of the bond decreased. You wanted me to be taken by you, always and forever, but what we had was more so a game of play pretend. Every time I decided to create the distance and seek something better, that was when you made the existence of us suddenly appear. The longer I stayed, the more your empty promises and make believe stories seemed to become a routine and lacked genuinity. The good you swore you did was foreign and unknown. I had enough of the emotional roller coaster I chose to stay on. The idea of my heart breaking is simply tiring. So instead of beating around the bush, I had to let you know that I had to do what was best for me. You began searching for ways to get me back when you realized that I was gone for good and doing better without you. Trying to give my leaving your own meaning is still your way of coping. The separation was fate. I can't tell you if it's temporary or permanent. For now, distance is necessary. 1614

An Open Letter
at first glance she does not seem to have a care it might be the way she flips her hair but look a little deeper, pick her apart and suddenly she has a heart behind glass eyes and tough skin the apathy runs thin through her blood that rushes through her veins like me and you but she’s different a little indifferent broken bones and a broken home worked together to create a blissful hurt creature full of pain but mostly love hidden above the ideas that vulnerability makes you weak and weakness does not build strength rather it’s a slap on the cheek so you turn the other cheek and build another wall to hide from it all because no one really cares or maybe it’s just the way they’ve been flipping their hair I don’t know but what I do know is that she cares and she is there for me whenever i’m down she wipes away my frown at second glance i see the way she cares genuinity, something i have only found in the most broken of people washed up on the ground trying to fix those around them because they don’t dare see what is coming from within

All she does is talk Do you see the practice in her mock genuinity 'Cause I can Maybe she put you in a trance with her plagiarised poetry and false inflections When I was standing there, my arms crossed, my mouth agape with eternal o's resounding from it -cj

she shrugged and replied: "I don't know."
New..sance New since My heart truly feels like a nuisance to my soul... It beats but in harmony with my soul..? I question I question my genuinity... My life, my purpose..like one if I'm wasting... ...it's like how does one remain calm How can one be themselves without thinking about it ...I crave the day where I am free from this zombie apocalypse A day where I can wake up and breathe... Smell flowers not weeds Wake up positive and bright Salivating the moment in its glory... But fantasy I tell you this day that I wait for Is false... It's not a lie but it's a dream... I know dreams come true but...when it comes to your heart... That my friend is real and you come to know that fantasies are not welcome there...

As flowers begin to spring...
the seven things i cannot share   the seven things i cannot share: 1. anxiety (a storm that never ends, the rain slashing my cheeks when it used to softly brush the hair from my eyes) 2. fear (constant; the breath that i pull from my lungs or the thoughts that run rampant in my mind) i. of things i cannot see (of uncertainty; of the mystics beneath the waves that can grab my ankles and pull me beneath) ii. of the darkness (the only thing that makes me blind; the only thing that takes away the power that i am afraid of, yet have learned to depend on, like my feet upon clotted soil) iii. of silence (the thing that dampens the cacophonous torrent to leave a blank slate, begging to be filled with words i am unable to say) iv. of emotion (the thing that rules in a diamond-encrusted throne in my mind; the thing that has given and taken ten times more away; the thing that has ruined more than built) 3. quiet (the few words on the slate that accompany my chalk-caked, raw fingers; the few words i was able to share under cover of anonymity) 4. truth (the harsh mistress that holds me by a chain and muzzles my philosophies to speak only the sentences required, the syllables necessary) 5. memory (a liquid picture of the grand and the traitorous that falls through my fingers like oil) 6. pain (the intensity that demands to be soft; the thing that i can relate to the most and suffer from in its similarity) 7. happiness (the genuinity that can be used as a weapon, sharpened steel and a weighted hilt; the thing that can build skyscrapers and grasp the clouds to also start wars) and what i wish i could: myself (every ounce of stardust, of sea foam, and of burning light)     i. hope (the unerring sense of optimism: that this star won’t explode, but glow brightly with the power of a thousand suns)     ii. dreams (the seemingly impossible and “just within reach”, the moon at the height of day)     iii. loves (the strength with which one can be weak; the strings and cans through which i can share the things i never thought i could, ears and mouths pressed to rough edges with the intent of nothing more than to be there)

The Seven Things I Could Never Share

i can't feel anything anymore. everything just seems numb, dull. what am i living for? why was i born? i feel like a ship's hull; drowned. i cant lull myself to sleep anymore. it seems like the thoughts have their own sound. then, when i laughed, the genuinity of the joy felt nice, it made my cheeks feel warm, now, it just feels like ice. now, it hurts to laugh. i feel monotonous, like a droid. im wheezing away, trying to stay happy, but now, all i feel is a void.
