An Honest To Goodness Love Letter
Every time,
Every time I hear you
Or read you...
I sink into a certain comfort.
It's as familiar as waking in my own bed.
You spread yourself thin
Across acreages of heartache.
You know...you really don't have to.
You are loved in a way you've always wanted.
I understand, it's hard to see.
Even harder to believe.
But you are.
I am a ghost now,
Was solid once.
Time disintegrates a woman's worth.
You see it when you become invisible.
Time doesn't stop the yearning to love
And...
Every time I hear you
Or read you...
I sink into a certain comfort.
It's as familiar as waking in my own bed.
You spread yourself thin
Across acreages of heartache.
You know...you really don't have to.
You are loved in a way you've always wanted.
I understand, it's hard to see.
Even harder to believe.
But you are.
I am a ghost now,
Was solid once.
Time disintegrates a woman's worth.
You see it when you become invisible.
Time doesn't stop the yearning to love
And...

John
Your anonymity,
Safely tucked in your name.
Our little secret, I know it's real.
Just like the basement room you rent from your mother.
Persian rugs and antique tables, old family stock,
Lovely back drops for your internet fodder.
You've got this voice...and a filthy mouth,
Illusions growled so eloquently
Through voice memo prompts.
I ask and I receive, my loyal John,
My clean cut, button up Polo jock,
Wielding your big fat American cock.

Time Spent
Spending one's thoughts on another.
Taking up space,
Valuable grey matter real estate
Reserved for...
The wealthy owner of some unconditional love...or something.
This time, as enjoyable as it was,
Spent wasted.
Relief...
It had a beginning,
It can have an end.

Ugh (Like, Ugh)
(I'm shutting down.
Fighting it, really trying.)
Such sweetness, warmth
In him.
Surprised, a genuine love is offered.
But...I can't
Do it.
Protestations, yet it's like I'm not even in the room.
He doesn't see me.
(The utter fucking loneliness of not being seen)
A good fit?
Am I to be arranged now?
(Commonality means nothing if you can't.see.me)
Fighting it, really trying.)

Then There's You...
I had a lover,
His grip was
Fierce.
I am detached,
Think nothing of it.
Night comes,
He can feel me leaving,
I feel him constrict.
Boa legs and arms.
Self preservation pushes, squirms,
Marionettes my limbs.
"I am not yours.
YOU ARE SUFFOCATING ME."
Then there's you...
A touch so light,
Like you're not even there.
And I want.

When You See it
Changing pathways.
Brainwaves learn-ed,
Synapses's's's firing blanks.
Why?
Why do you have to change?
Your mind is brilliant
Your mind is...
Wonder, lust and love.
Your roots run real
And I feel them.
Subtext says...
"We cannot show the demand of possession"
(With my loving fingertips
Spreading soil, warmth
Mothering, smothering
Your wooden veins.)
And lit is your need,
Perk is fresh and I am old.
The furthest thing from commercial desire,
Love.

The Torture That is..
Morning.
The soft of my sheets.
The sink of my bed, then
This little beast in me...
Stirs me up.
Starts right there,
Where everything starts.
My hands are not my own.
Your words fuel fantasy.
Feeding thoughts,
Weight of you.
I am
Prone, back arching
Hips rising
Arms stretched
to the wall.
Your knees spreading
hands cupping
teeth sinking into
body crushing,
Fucking
Me
Deep.

Just Gonna Put This Here....
I did it again.
What?
That thing.
That thing I do.
What!?
That thing where I...
Forget the thing I said I wouldn't do
Use the things
Bringing empty attention
To temporary eyes.
Glassing over the thing
The thing I'm supposed to do.
WHAT
Don't get mad
It's just a thing
Pass like the rest
I'll just do the thing
The thing that breaks it.
WTF
That thing...
I said I would care for
Nurture for
Build for
Stretch longer and push harder...

How can you not know?
I envy you
I hate you
I love you.
This oblivious state you live in,
Must be fucking glorious.
It is with the utmost respect,
I ask you, please
Fuck off.
Coy sweet smile, joyful laughter, warm hands...
Please, please, please...fuck the fuck off.
I wish you happiness and babies
SO many babies..
I wish you irresponsibility as they grow to a point in which you can't handle.
They will force you to be a father,
She will force you to hate yourself. ...

Green With It
Flipping thru the memory rolodex
I'm looking for it..
That moment, that incremental moment,
When I turned.
Turned from happiness for others.
My broken heart,
My sudden awareness of life
With no children.
The Mac truck hitting me hard.
And I see them,
Happy.
Young.
Time is theirs.
And I hate them.
This is deep, deep, deep.
Forgiveness isn't forthcoming.
Yet.

In The Trees
I am Raven.
He said,
When will you join us?
I Don't know..I said.
It's safer here,
In the trees.
