lashing out
you'll burn anyone in your fire
without realizing sometimes
people are just trying
to love you, to help you
determined to keep
them out,
you don't realize
maybe you should keep them in
a heart wasn't made to be lonely.
Once secretly entwined
To my surprise
Our Lips now blacken with ink
To scatter away in the desert dust
The blood petals of our friendship.
I let it draw the shape of an "A"
May our black books - like rocks - immortalize our memory.
You stayed in the dark, waiting for a light so bright to blind you.
But since your stay you forgot what light is.
Not knowing you forgot, you smile.. and you go on just fine.
Here is comfortable.
Here is known.
Here
is
home.

Speculation, Darling
You never loved me
Did you darling?
I'm just a body to use
When you get bored
You told me you loved me
You told me I was special to you
Do you know, darling?
If someone gets told something enough
They'll start to believe it
I believed I was loved by you
I believed I was special to you
That's embarrassing, isn't it darling?
And now I'm here
Unloved
Ordinary
Is this how you wanted me to feel?
Is it, darling?
I guess I'll never know
For I no longer ask you anything
Because of the fear that you'll say
You love me
And I'll fall back into your trap
Of specialty and love
You said I'll be right back,
So I waited.
Those seconds dragged on and I couldn't take it,
the more I was alone,
the more I missed you.
Those 3 minutes felt like an infinity,
I think I'm addicted and I haven't had enough yet.
I know what drowning feels like
That heavy feeling in your lungs
The urge to give up and embrace,
That permanent inky black
To breathe in at last
Just for the hope of relief
Even at the price of silence
Giving up would be easy now
To let go of all that pain
It would be worth it
Just for a moment of calm
Instead hope shreds me apart
And I struggle against it all
More painful, more pointless
Letting go is too simple
I didn't want you
and you didn't want me
but life had other plans
I decided it was wrong
even as it felt so right
I didn't want this
yet here I am
wishing it was where you were
I can't stop thinking of the
smell of your skin
And I hate myself for giving in
a perfect imperfection
that sucks me in , again and again
and there's nothing I can do.
frack my bones
inject my marrow with chemical-laced H2O
rupture my joints
infect my blood stream with methane
lace my veins with concrete and steel
just so you can steal my stomach lining
crack open my skull
just so you can steal all of my racing thoughts
drip acid down my spinal chord
and maybe spinal tap your way into my pelvic bone
close your fist around my lungs
and maybe steal my last breaths from my open mouth
unravel my dna
to make a ladder of your own
uncoil my intestines
to spread them out to measure
zap my nerve endings
just to see me twitch
rub down my bare body in alcohol
just to watch my skin sizzle
ruin everything good and
