He dissected them

I donned rubber gloves

and pulled apart their organs

trying to understand

how it was

that I was any better than them

or even

any different.

He loved the distance a pen could create

offering the safety of clinical observation

placing him behind the Plexiglas

and far above

so that he appeared clean and professional

I don’t have a poem for you

you don’t feel volatile

I am sputtering like a flame someone left too close to

            an open window

but you are not the chilly night air

you are not the frayed wick

I still haven’t figured out what you are

you are like deja vu with pretty eyes

seeing a splintering of a thousand potential futures

they all exist because none of them exist ...

This one is not for you.

Stay.

Stay.

Close your eyes

[eager and aloof.]

one day red

full stop

left to [no] exchange

Stay sane.

I hate pretending

a way of fending 

off others mending

from themselves

another good thing

lost like a shoe string

problems I do bring

lack purpose 

show yourself to me 

paint it heavenly 

it ends tragically

I’m confused

because you were here

I filled you with fear

now you’ve disappeared

it’s my fault

I live with a space

like a buffer place

If I could bottle up this thunder

in my heart and post it to you,

all those unspoken words would 

tumble out and you would see.

If I could lace my fingers into yours,

we could speak in braille.

If I could lie my head against your skin

and inhale, you could not fail to know.

If I could touch my lips upon your mouth,

and speak the language of eternity,

no words would be...

Where the hell are you?

I've been waiting for what seems like my whole life

I can't get it out of my head

I thought by now I'd be someone's wife.

Nothing turned out how I thought it would

Is it for the best, for the greater good?

Why is the heart such a fragile thing?

With every rejection I feel the sting.

I look in the mirror but it ain't me looking back

My love, I let you down

I promised I'd be there but started to drown

My love, I was in over my head

Why did we pass ships at night as we climbed into bed

My love, the only love for me

I just want to say sorry, I am so fucking sorry 

My love, I see your face everywhere

There's not one other face that could compare

My love, my beautiful friend

You were ...

love is not 

love is not possession

love is not obsession

nor is it dissolution

of the self except in fleeting

moments of passion

love is not fixing

love is not needy 

love is not forcing

unwanted gifts

nor demanding reciprocity 

love is not being half

nor dependency

love is no debt 

nor a prison of

all consuming exclusivity

The first time I saw you I had to pour out my heart and drink it down.

Not like a poison but a love fuelled potion.

You have a beautiful persuasion, you have this magical notion.

I know that it's not just the view of the palm trees,

I can see it in everything you believe.

When you smile its so innocent and sweet,

It's such a cliche it knocks me off my feet,

I hold on hope...

What if I'm not good enough?

What if one day they realizes they're better then me and go to somone else.

I know its early, and I shouldnt stress over it, but anxiety is real, and sometimes you listen.

Yet when this happens you must remember, everyhing happens for a reason. 

They like you. They care for you.

Focus on now, not if.

You'll never know how much I want you
You'll never know how much I need you
You'll never know how much it hurts 
to see you in his arms.

Why I pretend not to see,
all these texts you send to me.
Why I decline all your invites,
when I used to see you every time.

He knows I'm your best friend,
he asked about you again.
There's just one thing he doesn't know,
you're the one my heart fo...

and when he lays so peacefully still with his arm around my waist and as I lay beside of him memorizing every line, every wrinkle, every freckle, everything on his face 

so hopefully I will never forget his face due to chiari because it caus...

{My Truest Love Of Mine}




My wonderful
darling love of mine


I did fall deeply,
madly in love with
you so long ago now
but it only seems like
yesterday to me


And


I love you my truest
love of mine



But we have grown
in our blossoming
relationship love
each other more
with faithful hearts
beating to the rhythmic
beats of our hearts
bounded together

I am always going

to be missing you

like the skies are

missing the bright

stars shining

brightly through

the heavy rain and

then when I

stars I remember

that is you and

you're beautiful,

handsome rough

rugged face

shining back down

on me and as I am

I'm addicted to, all the

Things you do. The way

You look at me, make me

Breathe. I can face this now,

With you I now know how.

Your words enlighten me,

Your eyes, they help me see,

I've never felt this free.

He had lips like a

sweet soft angles

lips that made my

heart melt away

As his eyes

like the starry

skies above my

But his words

was intoxicating

to my ears as the

sound of his heart

and mine pounded

loud and louder

until I no longer

His love had grabbed

her heart at first

sight and she began

to fall in love with

this man because

the poetic word's

he wrote to her

and it made her

faster and faster

for him and his

word's was slowly

being engraved upon

her damaged layers

of her heart easing

Staring up at his ceiling fan, thinking about this disgrace
Looking in his closet door mirror, with this horrid weed that was laced. 
Sending me into a trance of pure disgust
I have to stop this now, it’s most certainly a must. 
I walked out the door 
With no kiss goodbye 
He turned around so fast 
Like the quickest speed of light. 

My heart pounding as we speak 
I’ve gotten to a Cert...

A lot of pain in the ribs
I have forgotten her words

It has come to understand the foolish
The pains have taught all

I saw happiness in my tears
He found happiness in his smile

I've got green stained knees 
they remind me of you.
its the color of what once was your room
that you always said you hated,
yet you never bothered to paint it.
where we stayed up till 4 am
dreaming of our future flat.
visions of blue walls
and pictures of waterfalls
because you were in to that sort of thing.
Now I'm laying in the summer grass
as God’s tears come trickling down,

Birds chirping

Praising the beginning of a new day

As the sun rises

I look into your eyes and see

The glory of God staring back at me

Even though at that moment

Feeling unworthy

Yet still acknowledging the fact

That his Blessing was conceived

Thankful for another day

To be close to you

As our souls intertwine into one unit

Formed from a love that was given to us

Crush me with love

Never lost but never found.

Push me down from above.

Overwhelm me.

Thrust passion upon me.

With sensuality, seduce me.

Enrapture me and trap me.

To your cadence, excite me.

{I'll Bet You'll Start Loving Me?}

One day I'll bet you'll 

start loving me when I

start loving someone 

else which isn't you 

But you had that

chance but you chose

someone else to love

besides me 

One day I'll bet you'll

you see I am better

without you 

But you chose her

I love you.

I have since the day I met you and I will love you deep in my wretched soul until the day comes when I take my last breath.

That breath, even then when it is my last precious ration of air, I will breathe it for you. I always breathe for you. That's what you taught me you see. By refusing to open your eyes to what could've been and what could always be you made me breathe for bot...

To hear your name

Diary Of The Southern Queen Entry #50 (Havana)

My heart is hurting because I left something extra special behind in beautiful Havana

And as I need and want Havana to appe...
