about feeling burned up by the pain in my chest
The pain in my chest feels like the opposite of a hug
Like something is being taken away from me
It keeps sucking something out of me
consuming me
I loved a man before
I once held him and I said to him
"I want to push so much love into you"
I left him but I hope he still has some of my love left inside of him
and that when the pain is gone,
done sucking and consuming me,
there will be enough left of me for you to love
Like something is being taken away from me
It keeps sucking something out of me
consuming me
I loved a man before
I once held him and I said to him
"I want to push so much love into you"
I left him but I hope he still has some of my love left inside of him
and that when the pain is gone,
done sucking and consuming me,
there will be enough left of me for you to love

vacation in italy
i sit up and rest the book I'm reading on my lap
to finish my beer
it's warm by now
i watch the calm pool in front of us
only a flight of swallows is churning up the water
by dipping themselves in it, occasionally
I'm thinking of dipping myself in it too
I lie back down and turn my head to my left to look at you
you're reading your book and the cigarette hanging on your lip has gone out
i know that you won't light it again
you never do
since waking up next to you three days ago I've been wanting to tell you that i love you
the urge...
to finish my beer
it's warm by now
i watch the calm pool in front of us
only a flight of swallows is churning up the water
by dipping themselves in it, occasionally
I'm thinking of dipping myself in it too
I lie back down and turn my head to my left to look at you

i know that you won't light it again

Wild at heart friday
the bar is packed and Lene Lovich is on stage
I look up at him
he looks like something inbetween Jason Isaacs
and Vincent Cassel
I'm going to go home with him tonight
and sit on his face
I look up at him
he looks like something inbetween Jason Isaacs
and Vincent Cassel
I'm going to go home with him tonight
and sit on his face

absurd quotes middle-aged women share on social media
don't let one bad day make you believe you've got a bad life"
or something like that, i read today
does one good day between bad days make your life good?
ahh
pretty stupid to even think about it
since things are the way they are
not measurable by human instincts and needs
i still have to deal with human feelings though
analyzing doesn't spare you
he accused me of biologism
not sure why that's an accusation
pretty fucking stupid

fever dream
floating in space"
is what he says
and takes another bite of his breakfast eggs
looking down on me
with slight concern in his eyes
as I sit on the floor
leaned against his sofa
burying my head in my arms and hands
and peeking through them, at him, sometimes
funny how he exactly describes what I've been feeling
what I've been struggling with
for a while now
lost, insecure, alone, irrelevant
take these words and multiply them by ten
maybe twelve
I thought I haven't told him enough yet
I wonder if he ever felt...

where you bit me
I reach back and touch my shoulder blades
when my fingers reach the two spots
where you bit me
hunched over me like an animal
continuing to thrust into me
my hands cuffed on my back
I can still feel the pain
images of our fierce, violent love flash by
a sensation of your smell fills my head
I smile, put my hands back on the keyboard and continue to work
and hope you'll never let me leave your place without leaving a trace of your pleasure on my body.

love letter to my lover's wife
and if your wife ever worries
i wish i could stand in front of her
more than twenty centimetres shorter
and thirty years younger
as i am
and tell her
"look

don't worry.
it's you
you are his family
you are the one he's always coming home to

so much less than you

Shut It Off
fuck
it is unbearable
to be conscious
to be feeling what I feel
to be thinking what I think
to know what I know
I cannot sleep
I cannot be awake
I want to shut off my mind
so bad
I wish I could keep myself busy
somehow
not surrender myself to the same old
self-destruction
I would be someone
eventually
I'm sure
if I could only keep myself busy
I could live
I'm sure
I feel weak
why did no one show me how to care for myself?
I know the answer
nobody showed...

you, me, your wife and her boyfriend
I took you back to the station
hugged you long and tight
kissed your neck again as the train approached
and wished you a lovely vacation with your wife
I went back home alone and was hurting
I wish I could say I didn't
I love your neck
Do you remember me smelling it in the park when we first met?
You held me
and you told me to talk to you if it starts to hurt
if it's not okay anymore
I said this will be hard and you said that you know
I am afraid that I will lose you as a consequence

pieces of life
sometimes I wonder
if I have the right
to hurt myself
with the other man's grief
but maybe
shapes love,
ungraspable affection,
a bridge -
a bridge
that gives me
a piece of the other man's life
and wouldn't I be
so alone in this world
in my world, in my head,
in my universe
if I wouldn't at least
receive a piece of life
once
and
give a piece of life
once
if I have the right
to hurt myself
with the other man's grief
but maybe
shapes love,
ungraspable affection,
a bridge -
a bridge
that gives me
a piece of the other man's life
and wouldn't I be
so alone in this world
in my world, in my head,
in my universe
if I wouldn't at least
receive a piece of life
once
and
give a piece of life

day 123
the sheer glimpse caught of your face
awoke the most exciting fantasies
eyes
a thrilling embrace
but able to make me feel at ease
never would I have dared
to imagine the enchantment
concealed behind those eyes
even less I was prepared
for what I actually found
the walls I thought I could keep high
you tore them down, just right away
you found the words to make me cry
you found my self, I couldn't find
you upset that puzzled mind of mine
and made me grasp what I desired
now, whenever I...
