familial souvenirs for a past life
I want to shred your face
with my fingernails
I want you to hug me
and tell me you've always
loved me
and let all perceived sins
be forgiven
I want to forgive you
let the past float
into an ocean of new
where this blood
doesn't haunt us anymore
I want to take this pain
and shove it through your chest
and pretend like you feel
... something
I want you
to feel something
for me
that isn't blind animosity
and generational violence
I want there...
with my fingernails
I want you to hug me
and tell me you've always
loved me
and let all perceived sins
be forgiven
I want to forgive you
let the past float
into an ocean of new
where this blood
doesn't haunt us anymore
I want to take this pain
and shove it through your chest
and pretend like you feel
... something
I want you
to feel something
for me
that isn't blind animosity
and generational violence
I want there...

the only solution to the mess you made is to blow everything up
1. This is our first Christmas without you
I keep thinking it's strange
I don't have to buy you snacks
this year
because what else do you buy
the man that doesn't need anything?
2. There's a division so wide
we'll never conquer it
and so far I'm the only one
thinking about this rift you cultivated
and trying to figure out
why it was easier for you
to put knives in your children's hands
and have them fight each other
for your love
rather than have enough love to give
3. I always thought my...

Truth or Death?
I despise that blunt honesty shit
Honesty isn't blunt
Honesty is cool
Lies are blunt
You want to hurt someone?
Lie to them!
Then shoot them in the fucking head!
Honesty isn't blunt
Honesty is cool
Lies are blunt
You want to hurt someone?
Lie to them!
Then shoot them in the fucking head!

if I'm the villain what does that make you?
Leave me with your lies
kiss the air with your one-sided stories
I won't unlove you though I wish I could
Close your eyes on this chapter
and pretend I never existed
until you need an easy villain
and you always need an easy villain
I don't know how
I've made it this far
thinking there was a shred
of good left in your bones
There's no bonds left
to hold onto
There's just you and me
and a space between
I hope you're happy
in that righteous place
I hope the dotted line...
kiss the air with your one-sided stories
I won't unlove you though I wish I could
Close your eyes on this chapter
and pretend I never existed
until you need an easy villain
and you always need an easy villain
I don't know how
I've made it this far
thinking there was a shred
of good left in your bones
There's no bonds left
to hold onto
There's just you and me
and a space between
I hope you're happy
in that righteous place
I hope the dotted line...

My Monster
When the dark hours rang,
I remained inside,
Locked away from the danger,
Breathing behind doors,
As my parents had warned
To be safe,
Embraced in my blanket, I slept.
While claws crept from beneath the bed,
Where my monster hid,
The one my parents had left,
To rest at ease.
I lay engulfed in my sheets,
Waiting for the promised tricks,
That carved out my nightmares.
I remained inside,
Locked away from the danger,
Breathing behind doors,
As my parents had warned
To be safe,
Embraced in my blanket, I slept.
While claws crept from beneath the bed,
Where my monster hid,
The one my parents had left,
To rest at ease.
I lay engulfed in my sheets,
Waiting for the promised tricks,
That carved out my nightmares.

Journal Entry - The Threat
It's hard to believe how quickly a consensual affair can turn into heartache and regret. I should have known better than to get involved with another married man, but in the moment, it felt right. I was caught up in the rush.
Now I re-read Sally's texts. Her words are like daggers. I never meant to hurt anyone. In the steamy fog of too much wine, I just wanted to feel something, anything, that would heal my own emptiness.
Sally's a cop, and I'm... I'm an addict. I’m nothing now. I can't help but wonder what she might do with her anger and her authority. This is the...
