I'll Kiss Him Like Forever Is An Option, part three
There are nights I want to tell him. Nights I want to break down completely and admit that this doesn’t end the way he thinks it will. I imagine his face if I said it out loud. That I’m dying, that no medicine will undo it, that the slow fade has already begun. I imagine...

I'll Kiss Him Like Forever Is An Option, part two
He knows almost everything. He knows how the migraines come in waves, how they paint lightning behind my eyes and leave me curled in corners, whispering nonsense through the static in my head. He knows how my legs give out without warning, how my balance slips like a thread snapping,...

I'll Kiss Him Like Forever Is An Option, part one
The sickness is quiet, like the way winter creeps in. First with a chill, then with a silence so heavy it makes your ears ring. I carry it in my bones, in the soft tissue of my ribs, in the tiny thread between heartbeats that whispers: it’s not much longer...

No More Dignity
I want... Well- It's just- like... Oh, give me some decency. Don't tell me to tell you what I want when you won't even tell me how you feel. Don't expect me to do all of the lifting, it is both of our responsibilities. Don't let this fall on me, to tell you what I think when you won't even tell me...

Drowning in your eyes
The appeal of blonde hair never spoke to me until now I was content with the plain brown But then your blue gaze snagged onto mine And now it’s taking all I have not to drown. ...

Premium Member Expialidocious Love
Wonderful love dreams thrilled young Cali. She sung of such with good friend, Sally. Extraordinary and precocious, her thoughts felt expialidocious. Expialidocious were heart thumps. Precocious fantasies raised goosebumps. Sally thought her love, fragalistic. Cali said, "joy's not fatalistic." For Cali, hushed love was great enough....

I want to write love poems About what i feel inside But every instinct i have Just tells me to hide I bleed on paper I write out my blues So how can i change And write happy things too? I keep the hopeful thoughts locked up Tucked close to my heart “Let no person see it, No word line or part” ...

Bus Stop
“I’m so glad you’re alive” I told you this, maybe a little too soon With Nyx painting shadows on our faces it was a little too dark But you’re eyes were transfixed completely on mine And I was completely aware That it was a little too beautiful for just the second day I met you a little too late I wish you could’ve...

Unspoken
In the quiet moments, when the world fades away, my heart whispers your name, a secret wrapped in soft shadows. It dances in the flickering light, but my lips remain sealed, nervous thoughts knitting themselves into a tapestry of doubt. Your eyes, bright and inviting, pull me closer,...

blinded by the rumors
He doesn’t trust me. I told him the truth. He doesn’t care that I told the truth, he believes them. He thinks that I lied. His eyes have nothing but hate and darkness in them. His body stones there's no warmth in his lip. He is blinded by the words that never existed. I tell...

You sit beside me with a pen in hand, Taking notes. Our arms brush gently, A fleeting touch And a spark ignites. Late at night, My thoughts wander to you. Memories of what happened And what could be. I speak with my voice, You speak...

When wavelets curl along the pier To cast a light in shades of teal, I then recall a summer bold Which wrote about our truth, our dare And young we were ...a bliss reviewed The wildest lips moist as night's crest A passion christening one dream While moonglow blessed this warm request. We siezed fresh thirst, moments entwined Where jays in June acted...

run before you lose your life to her
While you drown in tears everynight she dosent even care enough to think about you once While you kneel and beg for her to return she dosent even care enough to look down Run before you lose your life to her forget every moment you ever shared Try to live once again...

Player or Be Played
Player or Be Played Should there only be two options? Can’t there be an in-between? An in-between where they are there for Each Other. An in-between where they choose Each Other. An in-between where they know Each Other. An in-between where they can respect Each Other. An in-between where any problem can be solved with Each Other. The perfect one becomes perfect when you show up. perfect for Each...
