It's Not Love It's Limerence

Some experts have likened the state of being in love with that of being mentally ill
and yet, we chase this illusion still...
and of course we believe in that which we can feel
Pheromones Hormones and Adrenaline,
phenylethylamine, dopamine, and oxytocin
our bodies secreting a cocktail of passion
we believe in this science experiment...this mere chemical reaction
which tells us we might produce beautiful offspring
Well, limerence is obsessive, intrusive, and consuming
understanding this can be quite illuminating
It causes obsessive thinking, Crippling fear of rejection
still we all seek for this bizarre connection
we are each promised, in theory the perfect princess or prince charming
but the truth itself is very alarming
head over heels....none of it's real
society perpetuates this ridiculous ideal
The only thing that makes any sense...
is that it's not love, it's limerence.

Paper Warrior

I fight inside myself
 but I am a paper warrior
 rock and scissors had their way with me
 cut up to shreds and pulverized to bits
 I fight inside myself
 but always hold the white flag
 crying as rockets fly around me in the night
 helpless and under-skilled
I run serpentine and aimless
 bullets in crossfire
 I fall into a hole
 mud sucks at my shoeless feet
 I scratch as I am climbing
the enemy surrounds me
 laughing at my plight
 I fight inside myself
 and always lose the battle
 defeating both sides
 in simultaneous seppuku
 laying on the ground
 swords of truth buried inside
 disemboweled with head hung in shame
 I lost at my own game
 I fight inside myself
 but I am a paper warrior
 rock and scissors had their way with me
 cut up to shreds and pulverized to bits

Paperweight

I am a paper
 you are weight
 without you
 I’d fly away
 and with you
 I am crumpled
 crushed under
 and faded with age

Cob of Corn

I am a cob of corn

whose husk was torn away

I have a yellow belly

I am exposed

I  attract hungry crows

they peck away greedily

they come to devour my good bits

and with what little they leave behind

No men will be fed

Luckiest Girl In the World

For you my words have been so carefully fashioned

for you, I am wholly, completely impassioned

Over these thoughts, in my mind I have clamored

though in truth, it is obvious I am completely enamored

for you all my world and time has been allotted

my heart smiles, yes I am besotted

with you I no longer survive, but I live

it's true that with you I am amative

for you I have love, which cannot be recanted

by you, quite clearly I have been enchanted

my heart I give you freely, for I cannot be captured

with you, I am calm, and yet also enraptured

how did I come to be so lucky I wonder

did the universe stumble, is this just a blunder?

which leaves me grinning like a fool, lost in bliss, toes curled

Or am I just the luckiest girl in the world?

Buried

He said she was a flower

and so he buried her in the dirt

To Greedy You From Stupid Me

Greedy you

Stupid me

I'm running on

empty

I still give whats left of me

to greedy you

from stupid me

Dip into 

the honey pot

take the rest

of what I got

I'll still give the rest of me

to greedy you

from stupid me

Just for the smile

behind your eyes

I would tear the moon 

out of the skies

and give the very best of me

to greedy you

from stupid me.

Pawn of Men

So low all the resources of my soul
and I run on all but empty as I go
dreams remind me of what it's like to feel
head be quiet...oh heart be still
sleep evades me as I toss and turn
thoughts race, and undulated desires burn
 all my resolve washed away like sand
 my body once a temple, now a shipwreck, unmanned
 Sleep sweet sleep escape tomorrow
 drown in tears for all my sorrow
 gag me with a stick
 play the worlds smallest violin
 swimming in the sick
 the game, the player, the pawn of men

Hypoxic

If you were oxygen,

then my body would be hypoxic

if you are love

then your love is toxic

if you are a dream

you surely will not come true

perhaps I am a dreamer

though, more likely, a fool

Cheap Shot

You opened your mouth, to shoot out daggers

when I turned my back to you

What a cheap shot... you coward

spit your cutting words at me

and watch me heal faster than you can cut

I am not one to be whittled

And now I have new armor

so you can not cut me again

I bleed for me alone now
