This thin light languishes
Against my stoneware soul
I am splintered in desert soil
Cracking, cracked, quaking—
Someone make it stop, I am
Imprisoned in this spinning world
Long ago I lost my fear of death
These days I find
I am terrified of life

How many nights have I dreamt
Of holding you in my arms?
Keeping you safe and loved,
Comforting you.
How many nights have I dreamt
Of seeing your smile?
Your eyes a cloudy mystery to me
But the curve of your mouth
Real and true.
I thought maybe I had you for the briefest of days.
I thought I was learning the shape of your eyes
And the weight of your hand in mine.
But I'll go back to dreaming.
I'll keep dreaming of you each night.

I’m not afraid of the dark, it’s comforting being blind..
I’m not worried about the nights.. it’s much darker in my mind..
I don’t hate being alone.. it’s too noisy inside my head..
I don’t need to feel your love.. I can love me instead..
I’m not scared of getting hurt.. I’m accustomed to the pain..
Call me crazy if you want, but I prefer the word “insane”
I’ve never craved affection or companionship, a lover or a friend..
Don’t worry about me my darlings, I know I’ll be alright in the end.

i don't want to
want her anymore.
i am tired of
breaking my own heart.
i spend all of my days
wishing she was mine
and all of my nights
hoping she never finds out.
i guess this is my curse;
unrequited love,
unreciprocated desire.
it consumes me whole.
it always has.
i am nothing if not a fool.

I might hang myself right side down and drip dry my self from swinging hooks, so that you might have room to make a home beneath my skin.
I want your hands against these bones which ache, too much, for your touch, and for your heart to beat in unison alongside the endless murmurs of mine.
I wouldn’t mind having you under this skin, so would it be too much to ask, to have you make your way in?

The specter of progress
churns in my guts.
I could have been
so much but
I'm reduced to
a breathless poet,
writing apocalypses
with line breaks and
hope between the letters.

Sometimes I leave a poem under your pillow,
Where else would they go?
And if I talk it's to an empty window,
Watching two kids making angels in snow.
At night the silence brings panic.
Because I won't hear you whispering prose.
You always insisted it's romantic,
I'd just say trust me I know.
Where did you go?
Where's the warmth always leaning into my space?
Where's the star meant for the 1960s stage?
You glowed but then came the rain,
A blood made cage.
Sometimes I leave a poem under your pillow,
Where else would they go?
And if I talk it's to an empty window,
Watching a dream fade into a ghost.

was looking back through 3am notes app poetry and found some stuff lmao i’m not sure if i like it but still
so i’m thinking- of blood red roses and molten suns champagne bottles and broken glass i’m seeing flashes i’m hearing drums books are ashes and wishes burnt once a ribbon donned your hair lacy skirts and artists flair now it’s ripped up canvas and raised voices all you want is one more chance

bitter without the sweet
you are the aftertaste of what
could've been a sweet memory,
and i think i’m the only one who 
still savors every sweet moment 
despite the acrid words you left me with.

Just like little Buddha’s on a train
scribbling haikus on hot dog stand napkins that are never wasted
a child’s smile returned for a silly giggle and a stolen moment
the patter of rain on a steel shell as a sonata without a key
a rushing country side by dirty windows, but who was really moving anyway?

I sometimes think our
World's greatest voices are those
That we'll never hear

Hey,
Our souls keep missing each other. Soon, they'll meet up and synchronize.

I live for the moment those perfect lips curl into that perfect smile..
My heart skips a beat.. time stands still.. my world stops spinning..
I’m transfixed, you’re like a work of art, a masterpiece painted by angels in heavenly light..
Every minute detail etched into my memory, replayed over and over again..
The sound of your voice.. like an heavenly orchestra in a world filled with noise..
The laughter, brightens up my world like a thousand burning suns..
The sparkle in your eyes, like an aurora lit up by millions of dancing stars..
You are the very definition of beauty, the epitome of perfection..
The stars can crash into earth, the moon can disappear, the sun can burn out into oblivion..
I’m oblivious to the world, to life, my darling, when you are around!
