Poet Introduction

guessing game
i hate the guessing game
the wondering
analyzing everything that occurs between
us
the flower picking
loves me loves me not
loves me?
loves me
not.
i wish I knew
how you felt
when you hold me
what is your intention
what do you feel
do you feel butterflies like me?
or just
n o t h i n g
i want you to love me so so
i n t e n s e l y
the burn i feel is so painful
and im not even sure that it will be… worth it
maybe...

i want (aching and longing)
aching and longing
for you, only you
i want my hands in your hair
the hair you always keep so
neatly
tied
up
i want you to hold me again
the way you did that one time
that left me
so Very
uncertain
i want to call you all those gross pet names
that we always joke about but
i want
it to
be real
i want you to tell me things
anything that is or was important to you
words you
dont tell
anyone else
i want to go on dates
and adventures that we will...

vessel
everything is heavy
and im am a weak vessel
that can't uphold the masses
im weak from my own insecurities
that fuel my distaste to eat
and leave me worthless
and breathless
and exhausted
im weak from social affairs
and people with sick intentions
who crack open my once beautiful vessel
and consume the parts of me i wanted to keep
maybe they donnt mean to destory mee
but they do, and I let them
i take each hit as they come
openly
fully
even worse
i like the pain, i chase the pain ...

the girl next door
the girl next door
with a smile i adored
she seemed so content
and had a signature scent
of molasses and honey
she was a day when its sunny
she carried a journal of thoughts
and always wore a jacket with speckled spots
she drank chamomile tea
and flowed through life like the sea
her hair was a streaky blonde
and in her backyard she had a muggy pond
her aspirations were bigger than mine
and i'm pretty sure she has a crooked spine
but she wasn't as perfect as she seemed
apparently her happiness was something I...

bones
i like to feel my bones
and grit my teeth
i like to bite my nails
and never asleep
i like diet soda
and eating nothing else
i like to be alone
perfectly by myself
i like the warm sun
and the green grass
i like to feel the ocean
and shatter myself like glass
i like the smell of cake
and of fresh linen
i like blankets
with cozy clothes on my skin
i like the idea of avoidance
and to zone out and dream
i sometimes like to hurt myself
even past the extreme

a ode to the frigid winter
as winter leaves the grasps of my hands
my eyes leak of tears
because winter is my comfort
everyone's favorite season is summer
i prefer the cold abyss of winter
in the winter the cold air kisses me
a soft comforting kiss
that tells me that im ok
in the winter the snow hugs me
and wraps me with its 20 degree love
in the winter its normal to stay inside
its ok to wallow in my room and cry
its ok to hide
jackets are customary in the cold months
i can hide my insecurities
and blame it on the...

high
that moment
when you are at your highest
higher than you've ever been
and you take a short breath in
inhaling
and the high falters
then for that second
a quick lapse
the high is gone
and just as quickly
you exhale
and the high falls
right back onto you
and you feel it once again
when you are at your highest
higher than you've ever been
and you take a short breath in
inhaling
and the high falters
then for that second
a quick lapse
the high is gone
and just as quickly
you exhale
and the high falls
right back onto you
and you feel it once again

scar
im all healed up now
but when my mind goes back
to all the places i used to go
and the feelings i used to feel
my scar still aches
and my heart beat falters
and even my headaches resurface
but when my mind goes back
to all the places i used to go
and the feelings i used to feel
my scar still aches
and my heart beat falters
and even my headaches resurface

men
in a world where
men's hands are like blades
to be weaponized when they chose
and their smiles are always creeping
and lips are laced with venom
always carrying a weapon in their jeans
that they will use against you willingly
you have to keep your eyes open
and stay aware and awake
or else you will fall victim
to their false niceties
and live in fear of men
and the dark
your love of touch
that was once a beautiful
and comforting thing
will make you sick

water spout
an empty water spout
nothing left to give
empty inside
but not outside
dehydrated
light sensitivity
red spilling on the carpet
the perfect month
rise from the ashes
or stay hidden in them
nothing left to give
empty inside
but not outside
dehydrated
light sensitivity
red spilling on the carpet
the perfect month
rise from the ashes
