POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I just don't know.
No Limbo
I wish it didn't hurt this way
Wishing for it to not matter
Just feels as if I'm drowning
I come up for air at times
And it hurts worse to breathe
There's no limbo for this pain
No place to find to simply rest
Wishing for it to not matter
Just feels as if I'm drowning
I come up for air at times
And it hurts worse to breathe
There's no limbo for this pain
No place to find to simply rest

Spider Thoughts
Head full of spiders
Waiting for each floating thought
To get caught
Wrapping them in cobwebs of you
Silken sullen headache
Need an exterminator
Waiting for each floating thought
To get caught
Wrapping them in cobwebs of you
Silken sullen headache

Lonely
It's a sharp one sided echo
The absence of being known
Hyper awareness of a heartbeat
That's only your own hiding behind ribs
The absence of being known
Hyper awareness of a heartbeat
That's only your own hiding behind ribs

Geode Healing
I don't know if I'm happy to be numb
That your name has faded from me
It doesn't matter anymore... it doesn't
My chest lays here hollow of the pain
That overwhelming sea of crushed silica
Has fallen from between these ribs of mine
Sand in the wind that left only traces behind
The ache of the space the pain held lingers
A pain that's a spiritual geode cracked open
Revealing the crystals of healing within
That your name has faded from me
It doesn't matter anymore... it doesn't
My chest lays here hollow of the pain
That overwhelming sea of crushed silica
Has fallen from between these ribs of mine
Sand in the wind that left only traces behind
The ache of the space the pain held lingers
A pain that's a spiritual geode cracked open
Revealing the crystals of healing within

I hate you
Everything I feel is writhing in me
Emotional snakes seeking escape
Frantically I'm looking for the spiritual shovel
Hacking at them until they're finally still
To bury the emotions within my chest
Hating you is easier than feeling this
Emotional snakes seeking escape
Frantically I'm looking for the spiritual shovel
Hacking at them until they're finally still
To bury the emotions within my chest
Hating you is easier than feeling this

Think of Me
With every booming crash
With every silver slash in the sky
You deserve to remember
To be cursed with memory
Of the way my hair smells
The way I feel pressed against you
Let this storm remind you
Visions of my lips in your mind
My laugh hidden in the the raindrops
I hope it drives you mad
With every silver slash in the sky
You deserve to remember
To be cursed with memory
Of the way my hair smells
The way I feel pressed against you
Let this storm remind you
Visions of my lips in your mind
My laugh hidden in the the raindrops
I hope it drives you mad

Growing Silence
I won't reach out
Let the days add up
Make that gap bigger
Maybe I'll close my eyes
And not see yours anymore
Let the days add up
Make that gap bigger
Maybe I'll close my eyes
And not see yours anymore

Kill the Love
If you love me
Please kill that love
It'll just hurt you
I'm not worth pain
Please kill that love
It'll just hurt you
I'm not worth pain

To love a Pisces Moon
I tried to describe you again today...
I've done it a thousand times or more
There's a surging tsunami of emotions
And I struggle with each wave inside me
One after another containing hundreds of thoughts
And I struggle to pick and choose the ones to say
I fall upon water imagery today when you came to mind
You are a perfect rainy day at the beach to me
The waves the color of your eyes as they roll and move
To try to leave that gaze is shockingly difficult
The thick wet sand pulling me down with each step
Purple seashells...
I've done it a thousand times or more
There's a surging tsunami of emotions
And I struggle with each wave inside me
One after another containing hundreds of thoughts
And I struggle to pick and choose the ones to say
I fall upon water imagery today when you came to mind
You are a perfect rainy day at the beach to me
The waves the color of your eyes as they roll and move
To try to leave that gaze is shockingly difficult
The thick wet sand pulling me down with each step
Purple seashells...

Chained Locusts
Chain loop by bloodied chain loop
We have anchored ourselves together
Bounded by the sticky blood tasting fear
That one day we would wake up alone
They can call us the locusts of lovers
For we wish to devour and consume
The beating hearts in each others chests
We could run but... we would be alone
Is this company worth the pain we feel?
I cannot escape these chains of your love
And you cannot escape the chains of mine
We have anchored ourselves together
Bounded by the sticky blood tasting fear
That one day we would wake up alone
They can call us the locusts of lovers
For we wish to devour and consume
The beating hearts in each others chests
We could run but... we would be alone
Is this company worth the pain we feel?
I cannot escape these chains of your love
And you cannot escape the chains of mine

Bone and heart
I'd break the bones in my hands
Into the form of brass knuckles
Sharp enough to cut through you
These violent thoughts plague me
As they are the only comparison
To the ever growing violence you
Have shown my heart over the years
Into the form of brass knuckles
Sharp enough to cut through you
These violent thoughts plague me
As they are the only comparison
To the ever growing violence you
Have shown my heart over the years
