Broken hearted
Oh How He Smiled
As soon as the words fleeted past the moistness of my lips,
A glowing grin immediately took its place upon his face.
Oh how he smiled!
He gracefully, yet swiftly, came to my side and put his
Precious, soft lips upon my own.
As we embraced the lips of one another,
Our souls melting into one another as one unified being,
He lifted his face up for a moment.
Just to take a peek at his lover’s face.
Oh how he smiled!
He started to fumble over his words,
His nervousness getting the best of him for the first time in years.
I comforted him with my presence,
As he caught his bearings
And I caught my breath from looking at his gorgeous, beaming face.
Oh how he smiled!
He began to suddenly reach into his pocket,
And I began to weep tears of joy,
A joy louder than any joy I’ve ever felt in my life.
I immediately thrusted myself unto him and hugged his
Warm, inviting heart and soul,
Not even needing to see the object in his hand.
I only loosened my grasp for a second to catch a glimpse of his face.
Oh how he smiled!
It was an intense session of cuddling when for some strange reason,
I felt a pain louder than any pain I’ve ever felt in my life.
My own cheery face turned into one of pain and agony,
As I looked up to see my lover holding a knife, not a ring,
And my shattered soul that he cut away from his,
Our souls no longer were one unified being.
My whole world shook before me for the last time,
But I wanted to remember his face.

The Poet Without His Muse
She’s the source of inspiration and revelation,
Both, the fantasy and the dream combined,
That which permeates the body and the soul,
That which brings him love and peace of mind.
But now he languishes for her all over again,
Separated like the stars and galaxies away,
That by day hide under the bluest of skies,
But at night shine in such a glorious display.
And his heart aches at the distance in between,
Close but yet so far in the realm of uncertainty,
But like cataclysms of the universe beyond,
Their chaos comes together in beautiful harmony.
He longs for her like he did in the beginning,
Yearning for the serenity once so profound,
In a languid slumber that seems to last forever,
Like la mélancolie of love once lost and found.

"I love you"
“I love you”
I said to my limb-cutting blade
As I cut,
Cut away at my wrists.
At my wrists,
Blood was spewed,
On my shirt,
Stead’ly pouring,
Pouring out,
Out my body
Forevermore.
As I took my last breath,
As I wept my last cry,
I looked up,
Up I looked,
Way up high at the sky.
And why? I don’t know,
Why I looked up that high.
Maybe it was a plea,
A plea to Heaven up high,
To spare my family’s pain
And my own pain, the same.
With the knife in my heart,
And my soul,
Scarring both,
Way up high,
High I went,
Feeling peace
Forevermore.

the vow
I found myself
in the shattered glass remains
little bits of me
that you snuffed out
like your last cigarette
~
in our burning hours
we fucked with demonic passion
yes I picked myself
out of the small boned china
pieces of my smothered femininity
choked by the corset
you bound me in
~
I was for your amusement
a dalliance nothing more
you whored out my poetry
to draw other women
into your chambers
wanted me to look on
as you gave them the worst of you
~
you didn't see my tears
as they burned
a path down my cheeks
you failed to ever really see me at all
a Sadistic beast
who took pleasure in my pain
~
I washed you away
with the cum & the blood
took back my power
& vowed never again

Still I Miss Her
It's been a while since I've ever really felt like myself,
Since I'tve been a child I've felt alone,
I guess it's just as well..
When I fell in love with you I felt a light in me shine
Another girl I loved as much as you = unlikely to find..
I loved you so much I wish I would have known you cheating would happen
Still, I miss the feeling, of you laying beside me, while you're napping
How could you do it, you broke my heart, & left me so empty,..
I would love to say that the pain is gone, but no, it's fermenting..
I never ever wanted another girl, no, I loved you & YOU only
I thought you felt the same, but I guess your love.. it was phony
When you truly love, somebody, they will always hold
a place in your heart
You never forget the love you feel, no matter how much
fucking pain you have felt
All my attention went to you,..not my family, nor homie
You were my other half, and honestly without you, I'm lonely..

He speaks
Crossing thoughts of you.
I miss you.
I hate you.
I want you back in my life.
No I don't.
I remember what you did.
What you said.
Especially how you made me feel.
Not good enough.
Second best.
Just another notch under your belt.
But then,
I still know you love me.
When I look at you, I see your soul reaching for mines but being pulled back by your fear of loving and being loved in return.
And your heart beats faster while your breathing is slow and reserved.
Your mind is telling me you can't live without me and you don't know how to get your mouth to say the words.
But yet you just smile and tell me I'm beautiful and for a moment I remembered the good.
My heart gets hit and sinks down below, slowly, until I'm completely cold, like the titantic.
I swallow the reality of that you won't talk to me.
But you think of me.
When you see her you think of me.
Restless nights are because of me.
You feel sad inside cause your losing me.
But yet your words don't come out.
I'm just so important to you that you can't lose me but yet your losing me.
But then you talked to me.
Our hearts began to beat at the same time.
I smell your aura and it does something to me.
And you look at me like I'm the one you prayed about.
Then you pull me close and kiss me.. and I cry cause my mind tells me to stop and my heart has had enough.
Either I'm yours or that's it.
But then you whisper, this chapter for us isn't finished being written. I can't live without you, because your the light of my life. I'm stunned every time I see you and I never want you to feel bad like that ever again.
But then I ask,
Why did you pick her over me? The girl who knows you better than you know yourself.
He says, I needed a distraction and your not that. I use her but need you and you didn't know that.
I miss you.
I hate you.
I want you back in my life.
No I don't.
I remember what you did.
What you said.
Especially how you made me feel.

werbepause ~ {xi}
i was but a protostar,
inhaling
the amniotic dust of
our molecular collapse,
admiring how intensely
we burned out,
how your legacy
shone bruise-bright
on the horizon of my face ~
... the chaos was
tragically beautiful
& i never thought
something could be
nourished & born
from the embers of
my oxidized heart ...
*
there, in the cremains
of everything i was,
in the detritus of what i
was to become,
i swallowed
the dying fire of potential
//

Maddness of a Broken Heart
I wrote this during my little hiatus from DUP figured i'd share
enjoy...
Ran in eyes closed, heart racing and hoping
that finally its me, finding someone unconditionally
such was the dream that you dared to dream
making you forget that most dreams are over once you’ve opened your eyes
and then its back to the lies, no smiles just distance
that dream of happiness gone in an instance…such is the madness of a heart break
there is nothing you can take, no pills no drink
only of betrayal are the thoughts that you think
you’re at work and your working, but the pain is still lurking
Breathing down your neck, pounding through your chest..
You take a deep breath and begin to count 1234….….567 more…
but there is no peace no break , your hands still shake,
your heart makes your whole body ache … such is the madness of a broken heart
I said NEVER AGAIN! and it happened again. I said NEVER once more…and it happened twice more
such is the madness of a broken heart…
It’ll have you wondering why me? Why did I let you in? to begin……with, I knew I shouldn’t I knew I couldn’t
You told yourself they were different but they were no different from the rest, and you were no different from the you… you were so long ago,
but new you and old you are now the same, broken hearted from the pain,
and just like before you put up walls again
such is the madness of a broken heart.
You think about what was and what could have been,
but now its clear that It will not and never will be
You did this to yourself, and you probably will again because love is your lock and your key,
your defeat and victory, through love is the only way you feel free
such is the madness of a broken heart…
enjoy...

... don't
I crumple to tear sodden dust
nothing left of me
but pleading words of platitude
that even in this state
I know can have no effect.
Regardless, I'm ready to spill them,
dignity forgotten
in this desperate broken moment
of please,
not knowing what else I could do
to convince you
not to discard me.
Powerless
as the core of my fears
plays out of my control;
unwanted
unloved,
old knowledge reinforced,
swirling with the fresh torment
of losing you.
Wonderful, understanding,
piece-from-the-same-puzzle
you,
tearing free from me,
leaving a void
of ragged breath and aching chest
and hopelessness.
Curled in on myself
I choke out mumbled words
through my sob clogged throat
knowing
they are as worthless
as I

-Usually Becky Breaks My Tiger Heart & I'm Still Happy, So What-
She breaks my heart constantly.
But so the fuck what, I ask for it all the time.
I get her drunk & I get drunk, too. Usually.
Every single time, I tell her I love her & she buys it.
We shag each others eyes out all night long after a few hits from the bong.
The stars go backwards.
Then, I wake up the next morning. Usually I sneak out.
Her flat is always a mess after we get done.
There's always a trail of messy clothes leading all the way to her water bed.
She has red satin sheets stained with spots of glory.
So the fuck what.
My broken heart is happy.
She still calls me asking, "Do you want your heart broken tonight Tiger?"
And she knows the answer.
It never gets old.
