Bitter Beer
I used to utter your name delicately
like it was poetry.
Just as how perfume lingers on a person,
The sweet smell of cherry blossoms
accompanied your name
whenever it walked out my mouth.
But now all it leaves,
Is a taste so foul.
Your love was like alcohol to me,
It left me feeling euphoric at first,
But after the effect had worn out,
All I was left with w...

A delicate touch on my skin.
How long has it been
since someone softly caressed me?

for as long as you’ve been.
Your fingers on me,
feel like the first sunbeams that grace a leaf,

To love

Isn't loving someone,
Sentencing yourself to pain?
Then, why pray,
Do all still love?
To hurt and be hurt,
Is to love and be loved.
I long for you to hurt me,
So I don't doubt my love for you.
I long for me to hurt you,
So I don't doubt your lo...

masquerading as eyes
And tears of diamonds
upon her porcelain face
Her ruby lips whispered
pearls of infinite possibilities
And there stood I:
Cubic zirconia, nickel, and clay
But somehow
she made me her equal.
