I love a few…
I’ve got a big heart
So big
It can fit
More than one
I’ve found that life
People
Offer various gifts
And not one gift alone
Satisfies
Sometimes it’s a dilemma
But it’s certainly
Not boring
Kinda keeps me
On my toes
On cloud nine
Riding a roller coaster
I wouldn’t trade it though
I was alone
For far too long
I’ll take this
Over that
Any day
So big
It can fit
More than one
I’ve found that life
People
Offer various gifts
And not one gift alone
Satisfies
Sometimes it’s a dilemma
But it’s certainly
Not boring
Kinda keeps me
On my toes
On cloud nine
Riding a roller coaster
I wouldn’t trade it though
I was alone
For far too long
I’ll take this
Over that
Any day

Brooding
First day of Spring
Cold
Windy
I’m brooding
Not because I love heat
It’s not that
It’s something else
I could tell you my feelings
Won’t burden you
Darkness consumes me
I welcome the brutal truth
Because truth is rare
I walk lonely, dog by my side
Time is an invoice
You pay or else face the consequences
Cold

Teacher's pet
In the depths of night
"At a friend's house"
When shadows dance
Between the sheets
Our secret romance
A student's needs
So pure and true
Within these walls
Teacher's infatuation
Our passion grew
My body yearning
And heart entranced
Our desires...
A forbidden chance
Together we'll defy
My passion filled...
A flame that burns
Our secret kept
And bodies aligned
Through the year
Eyes that glow,
with lust and fire
Teacher, student,
Learning to submit
Forever inspired
"At a friend's house"
When shadows dance
Between the sheets
Our secret romance
A student's needs
So pure and true

Our passion grew
My body yearning

Our desires...
A forbidden chance
Together we'll defy
My passion filled...

Disorganized Attachment and BPD, the Beast Within
Intensely craving
What I’m viscerally
Afraid of
Your offered safety
Becomes a threat
Distrust
Idealization
Sabotage
Fear of abandonment
Impulsivity
Chronic emptiness
Shifting identity
Learning balance
Has been a long
Process
I’m not a quiet storm
My love and anger
Intensely passionate
Often misplaced
I’ve blamed life, others
For the things
I’m afraid of
When what I feared most
Was myself
What I’m viscerally
Afraid of
Your offered safety
Becomes a threat
Distrust
Idealization
Sabotage
Fear of abandonment
Impulsivity
Chronic emptiness
Shifting identity
Learning balance
Has been a long
Process
I’m not a quiet storm
My love and anger
Intensely passionate
Often misplaced
I’ve blamed life, others
For the things
I’m afraid of
When what I feared most
Was myself

I’m the Girl
I’m the girl who can’t remember her past and who no longer works overtime to get it back
The girl that was grown when she was too young and who is young now that she’s grown
The girl who feels guilty for the breakups she didn’t handle well but realizes she wasn’t equipped at the time to do anything different
The girl who gives everyone the benefit of the doubt and is finally learning to do the same for herself
The girl who sometimes can’t put her finger on what’s wrong in a tangible way but knows there’s still work to be done ...
The girl that was grown when she was too young and who is young now that she’s grown

I'm not listening...
3 of 30
put others first
they said
{I do...}
stop overthinking
they said
{I can't...}
don't curse so much
they said
{fuck that...}
lose some weight
they said
{I did...}
don't be so sensitive
they said
{I wish...}
act with compassion
they said
{always...}
keep quiet
they said
{as if...}
you daydream too much
they said
{so what...}
use your head...but not like that
they said
{then how...}

it's three in the goddamn morning, you're making me have a f**king existential crisis ~
iii} i posted nudes on the internet for me, not for meaningless validation but you're a man, wtf would you know about it:
maybe, once
twice…
… a hundred times
i peeled back the sheets
in your absence
& thought of you ~
it was a long,
lonely moment
of self-reflection,
on how i’d found
everything i sought
a few months
before
loosing my self-worth
in your foreskin
{ii} i'm too confused to take my clothes off for you. god, you're so fucking hot. let me sit on your pretty face:
is...

Heard
I couldn't speak
I didn't dare
For there was
Tension everywhere
So, instead
I poured all
My pain onto paper
Put my ego
To one side
With each word
Filled with satisfaction
Now that I've been heard
I didn't dare
For there was
Tension everywhere
So, instead
I poured all
My pain onto paper
Put my ego
To one side
With each word
Filled with satisfaction
Now that I've been heard

Maybe you had to die for me to live
Sometimes I worry
that I don’t really miss you as I should.
My daily life was never good
at making space and time for you
(perhaps an unintended legacy
of the independence you encouraged?)
Now that you’re gone from this space and time
the guilt of that failure
has mostly gone with you.
No “when will I see you next?”
or long conversations
at inconvenient times
(oh, how selfish that sounds!)
And though I say I feel grief
what’s often stronger is relief
that I don’t need to filter ...

Too Late
i weep for
the mistakes
i made, for the
pain i faced
the scars
i can’t erase
...
i weep for
the times
i fled, for the
self destruction
the damage
that can’t
be undone
...
i weep for
years
of solitude
...
i weep for
virginity stolen
...
i weep for
the little girl
that was
scared
& alone
no love
no safety
no place
to call home
...

I think of you
I think about you all the time
Loving
Exploring this creature
I wonder
Since you occupy so much of my hours these days.
What did I think about when you weren't here
In my head.
