It’s Hard to Love a Poet
It’s hard to love a poet, I know it’s true,
because I’ll love you deeply, but never just you.
I’ll love the pain, the ache in my chest,
the quiet moments when I can’t find rest.
You’ll think you hold me, but I’m never there,
lost in a world you can’t touch, I swear.
I’ll whisper sweet lines, make you feel seen,
but between the verses, I’ll slip in between.
I bleed my love on pages, not in your arms,
and you’ll feel like you’re losing to invisible harms.
You’ll watch me drift, lost in my mind,
chasing ghosts...

Forgetting me
I didnt want you to forget me, please don’t forget me.
I want to stay in your memory. I want to be there forever.
Let me burrow deeper and deeper. Into your thoughts, into your mind so that I am free to torment you, comfort you just as you do me in mine.
Let me conquer your dreams as well, let the face you see always be mine.
Keep me with you.
Please.

You'll be my Hardest Goodbye
I feel like I’m leading you on,
A flicker of hope before it’s gone.
“Leading” feels too gentle, too kind—
I’m drawing you close while losing my mind.
I’m pulled to you, yet I dread the truth—
Soon I’ll surrender to this storm uncouth.
I’ll make you fall, entangle our souls,
Then shatter your heart, leaving empty holes.
I’m so sorry—this wasn’t my intent.
You slipped into my life, a divine accident,
Meant to be a distraction, a moment to breathe,
While I prepared to say goodbye to all I grieve.
But...

how loving you feels like
and so the statues were seen melting
on the marble podiums of their sins.
as they were truly made to last,
and were never meant for me.

High Tide
My rolling seas
Crashed
Into his dynamic lifeforce
My longing
To be
Violently claimed
Before the eventual
Ebb that always befalls us
Flooded him
With every reminder
Every fiber
Every last drop of memory
Retreating
I was Left on the fringes
Of us
As purgatory
Engulfed
Me

It Hurts
I realize that my body dysmorphia is just a distraction.
From all the things that still bother me.
The really important things that kill me deep down inside...
I still love him...
Can you really even learn to un-love someone?
I still wish upon a star that he was the one.
And I still have the deep down part of me that believes he was genuine when saying that if I became homeless, he'd give me a place to stay. Because he cared about his friends.
I know deep down somewhere that I'm not imagining this. Him also asking...

The Wilted Rose
I am a rose that can no longer stand tall.
A heart no longer beating.
A monitor going black.
The man will always have a piece
Of my heart.
And I will always be wondering
If he has a piece of mine too.
A heart no longer beating.
A monitor going black.
The man will always have a piece
Of my heart.

He Loved Me, He Loved Me Not: How does she not believe she's perfect?
Alia Lynch was full of obscenities. After being hit with the non-people pleasing serum, more and more was coming out that JR4 found a lot to handle.
But yet here she was, with that innocent laugh he knew from 8 years ago. With that innocent smile. And that innocent joy that she still had deep within her.
He had to ask himself as he was staring at her in her white undies and pale green T.
He had to ask himself the question that only his head was allowed to contain. Never aloud could these thoughts be made known to her.
"How could someone who...

Nice Guy Chronicles I
"She speaks about you a lot you know"
"Ohhhh-kay" I reply
Not knowing if that's a good thing or bad thing.
As her boyfriend gives me a suspicious look.
I break the ice with a joke pretending that
This situation isn't awkward.

WHITE
How could it be
My oath of malice, broken?
What did I see
From out my dreams, awoken?
Fair and unbeknownst to me
With radiance bequeathed the shade
To my orbicular gates
Stricken
The purity refined therein
Made every light anemic
And the rose of her smile
My kaleidoscopic prison
A single thought escaped
As I made away
"Goodness, me"
My oath of malice, broken?
What did I see
From out my dreams, awoken?
Fair and unbeknownst to me
With radiance bequeathed the shade
To my orbicular gates
Stricken
The purity refined therein
Made every light anemic
And the rose of her smile
My kaleidoscopic prison
A single thought escaped
As I made away
"Goodness, me"

Spaces
Hidden in the many paragraphs I scrawl and haphazardly type,
An unintelligible phrase is burrowed in the spaces.
It’s a riddle to be broken,
Just for the smallest of hands.
A trial of the soul,
It mocks time itself.
Written only in indigo ink by the light of the moon,
A beckoning without a ballroom to dance in.
She showed me what I’d lost,
I’ll show her to the door.
I’ll interlace our fingers until she’s shivering,
Burrowed in the spaces.
And when I bring her mouth to mine,
Pardoning the flesh...

I’ll show her to the door.
I’ll interlace our fingers until she’s shivering,
Burrowed in the spaces.
And when I bring her mouth to mine,
Pardoning the flesh...
