you

  • A White, White Butterfly

        I dreamt of a butterfly once with white wings and a cheshire smile   It beckoned me with slow flaps   I could have saw each flutter   It laid atop my shoulder with knowing eyes a forlorn smile and she said to me   You wish to be free like I wish…

  • Missing Daisies

        What does it feel like to be missed?   Is it like looking at the stars and they finally gaze back at you?   I imagine it’s like a four leaf clover wanting to be found how winter welcomes spring all the snowflakes kissing tulips   Do you miss me?   I like…

  • mania

          Love is suffocating something toxic   It curls up like a pretty petal all laid out on display   Splayed like an offering   It beckons you with soft words clamant prurient   It drives me delirious   It’s pure madness clamors my head with hysteria   I can not breath  …

  • Nocturne for the Moon

        I was in tune with the lilac moon   Oh how brightly she shone for me   Rippled puddles of plum blossoms, she did lavender riddles of cobblestone trickled twinkles of fixed dust   And if I had been lovely on such a night   She would let me serenade to her

  • musings

        I was going to write a poem today; but something important got brought to my attention. This time last year I was going through a lot of things. I was constantly battling with self harm, suicidal thoughts/depression, and anxiety. I know this is something others go through, and still something that some people…

  • hive mind

        I used to love the silence that emptiness it would take over my veins spill love sonnets into my heart   We would talk to each other   On nights like this   Quiet conversations of nothing in particular but I could make out the shape of your body   It was as…

  • 1st September Miracle

        It helps me writing everyday, knowing that at the end of the month, I have something to look forward to. I once thought it was a burden, and maybe I still have some type of remorse for it, but for the most part it helps me; lets me know that maybe, just maybe you…

  • Song Without Words

        There are words in the wind little sonnets that I’ve made up just for you   It carries my tune my remorse and if you were to listen hard enough you could feel how I yearn for you darling   But that breeze flows past you it ruffles your hair kisses your cheeks…

  • incubated metronomes

        Blue melts over the horizon drudging up golden waves stars lit over a dim horizon   Compasses that Chronos could never have marveled   There are hourglasses in your eyes minute little staffs cast over the dordogne   High supremacies that travel down to marvel at your worth   You are untouchable intangible…

  • Complacent Mirrors

          You had eyes like the raging sea airy moons   It was either soft ceruleans or dappled iron   Freckles of speckled suns the orb of Neptune   Two hundred and fifty years until we are switched   A sharp crescent of Pluto is what you become   I still dream of…

  • cirrus

        I search for you like birds do the clouds   With strips of noctilucence and bitters of cotton   I’d follow you on the mare’s trail

  • grapnel

        I admire you for those cunning claws that knit and pick on others   Little pinpricks are those claws   They’re diggers they devise storm worthy plans for those lowly humans   And they love you for it   You humiliate them scratch ragged lines across their arms   But they don’t weep…

  • Evergreen, You’re My Favorite

        I welcome you like the Evergreens do the rain   With shaky branches and fallen leaves   I am a disaster for you   Rough patches of dirt and mildew   I’d mold this earth just for a touch   With cold winds but hotter suns   I yearn for you   Am…

  • paths

        There are dainty dew drops that kiss your cheeks little one   One day with thinly veiled envy I saw that bead travel across your lips   What I would have given just for a mere taste just to be that sensation

  • Witching Hour

        I always wake up at that witching hour   How lonely oh so forlorn eventide is now   My nightmares come to me just like those hands   One greets me satiating my solitary the other one runs away much like you did
