I'm in need of something. I'm not sure exactly what it is. But there's a craving for it—a need to experience what it could bring. There's a desire for it. It's so close but still so far away. I can feel it. I can sense it. I can hear it. I'm just not sure of its name. It is everything I need in the moment and everything I want in the future. It is everything I could ask for, but none of the things I thought were vital. I changed from being in its presence to just wanting to be engulfed by it entirely. It doesn't make sense to most, but to me, I finally understand. A healthy love will scare you, have you run for the hills, and leave you to examine yourself before figuring out your need to return. This is an experience worth losing yourself and your pride for. I'm just happy to learn that without complications and repercussions.

ever loud, ever lively

the river flows below

bubbling with the brook sprites

laughing, light and low

Paying Penance to Residual Worth

Isn't there more time? We began to spread apart the darkness, and, for whatever reason, it left us silenced in a hopeless trance of messiness distanced from nocturnal remembrance, those odd reverberating dreams, scuttled to the core - we make out with less than we did bringing solace along with our pride, a price to pay nothing ever came for free and a delusion we doubled down on made sense (at the time) Once was never enough to prime the value of our circuitry, certainly the choice was mine all along, alone to face the fractured cold of eternity. Lifting out the bones from the fragile grave, this will be the last time I'll say goodbye.

Anxiety makes a home in my head,

never ending, never ceasing.

Rapidly planting roots of the unknown

that cause worry.

There's no answer of why I am this way.

P.T.S.D. holds me captive which I despise.

Why is the world so cruel when all I want to do is live peacefully.

No thoughts, no flashbacks

just peace in my mind.

R.A.

He came into my life and changed the whole perspective of how I viewed the world we live upon .

If wishes were stars he would have filled everyone .

He don’t understand how much he moved the moon and skies for me and made every day a brighter one .

Miles apart but he touched my soul in a unique way ,

Like magic he lifted the dark and awoke a sense in me ,

a feeling I craved ,

awoken with a sense ,

which somehow like magic he found and held onto , until it lit deep ,

and brought me back to my feet .

You thought you could buy blowjobs with candy sticks

You thought you could bruise me as long as we kissed

And you were the candy to me

Two perverts we were - Hum 35 Lolita 23

Your black eyes called me like mystery

Your face spoke of the darkness - I was enticed

It was you - but it was also me...

...non consensual grey line sex

You never ask me; I always say yes

Because I really crave your flesh

I was a fuckdoll with no thoughts

And you played Bikini Kill songs though

I liked the sex, what can I say?

Or I just didn't know how to escape?

I didn't know best.

Why do we cum in pain?

We were perverts

but you crossed the line

and blurred it to your benefit

How sad to be a slave by sex hypnotized

I was mesmerized by God's face through devil's hand

You thought you could shut my mouth

with your mediocre lollipop

abused me and called it love

rape of my soul, did it turn you on?

I cried and toiled and choked -you lie to yourself-

but you didn't care

Why do we cum in pain?

But I grew up, Lolita always does

And her fantasies crystallize

And her heart gets tired

And she sees the other side

Lolita screamed goodbye

Couldn't sustain your lie

Lolita cried every night

for her perfect Humbert nightmare

I am fire, I am chthonic sex

I love fiercely and you know it well

It was me who freed herself - it wasn't you

I have that flame

I'm the fire of my home

You have nothing at all

Darling, I hope one day my letters will find you. I believe my words will give you the answers you've been seeking. I know...it's been a long time coming. Well, the wait is over. I've arrived at a place where I can share with you - all I am now and was before. I pray my messages will penetrate your heart while providing the clarity, protection, and comfort you need to get through your days. You deserve the best of this world, and all it offers. Forgive me if I've never shown you that. I'm sorry that I couldn't be with you in person to teach you what these letters will reveal. Lord knows how deeply we've both been troubled by each other's absence and lack of loving - it's unbearable but justified. I know how you feel. I don't blame you a bit. I can't help who I was or who I have now become. But I believe you'll be able to yield to my request, know my voice, learn my ways, and live a life worth celebrating expediently through what's written on these pages. I know there's only so much I could relay with a pen and pad. But I did the best I could. For you, I tried my hardest to honor all that you were and were to become. I only wish I could've been a part of it as I should've or observed from afar as I would've but chose not to due to unfortunate circumstances. I hope you understand and will find it inside yourself to get re-grounded and rooted in who you truly are. Hopefully, this helps you heal, as it has done for me. As much as we try to ignore it...you are a part of me. Forever yours with so much love, beloved.

how long spent drifting

a whip-brush of sea grass protected the clamshell when they washed up together we ignore the rotting green pick up the open empty shell with our child's hands say, "look, they're twins!" it's true: once one, now two still hinged and patterned identically and the limp slime of weed it no longer protects as it once did, ocean-wise when the shell was whole.

Cherub Arrows

You win me over, smiles galore. A wash of colour, nothing I’ve seen I’m playing in-between the shine. We skip stones along this cascading wave, thoughts combine, there’s more you feed me than I’d been anticipating. Last looks before dreams, bed time and tucking between the seams we’re sowing together - and if my nightly chaos tries to dig at me, you’ll still cradle the little boy in me enough to claim victory... Nothing’s perfect, but we’re skirting the edges of profundity in motion - so I’ll pledge a devotional song in your direction.
