and the only time i can cooperate the only time i will give it up is if you hurt me. torture me. put nails through my spine. watch the blood leave nothing but words behind. silent keeper of the quiet riot. you believe in your moment. and the only time i give upContinue reading “worried and wondering”

thursday in june
such a glutton for punishment. it will never grow tiresome, this struggle to make you love me. after many afternoons pass me under my closed eyes, i can feel the tiny knots in my stomach growing stronger.. and i find my rest is necessary. some sort of service to myself and everyone else. a ceremonyContinue reading “thursday in june”
333.3
33. 33.33..33. stems. they bring nothing good anymore. pulls. on. the . neck. 33. 33.33.33. brims. lusty love. worn out love… .. i’m stretched… if i had knees.. . i would crawl.. with only parts of me. some day. one day.
quiet
in your movements, i steal quiet moments alone with you. you don’t see them, you rarely notice. but i like to hide weak in your strength when i can. because sometimes i feel. sometimes i hide soft for you to discover. because sometimes my skin tightens for you to notice. lips wet, eyes glisten. musclesContinue reading “quiet”
caught
i caught that. found your hard side, slipped through my cracks like water, it did. and you meant none of it, i know. but i caught it. it slid down my chest, right into my belly. easy with the balloons that were already there. caused breathlessness. my likeness. and i can’t tell you. paranoia. learnedContinue reading “caught”

summer breathes..
goodbye love memories scream soft against this void dreamless into frantic summer after you smear the past girl shot trust whines but the moons stars sun purr like music for her the sound sweet silent listen she became that rock over moments since.
a post is a post
fibers stretch to reach each other.. colors blend with one another.. masks slip to show the feeling.. we choose to breathe on our own. the sun shines to keep what’s living.. and night falls to free the eager love reminds what falls beneath constantly hiding behind our eyes. so how do we end up whereContinue reading “a post is a post”
movements
i bloom in the texture of you. make room for the moments to breathe in your light and hide softly in its warmth. hungry fingertips take all that you allow me to feel. and i hide. frozen eyes bleed for your nourishment and you fall softly into my presence. keeping me cool and calming theContinue reading “movements”
