I'm cold cold cold.
My parent's house is not the escape I was looking for.
I lock myself in here without the heat to prove a point.
What point, you ask?
Well, uhhhh, I don't know.

I dug out an old sweatshirt from 6th grade basketball.
It's still too big.
If  I stretch my arms out towards the lack of sky
My tiny, chubby, baby hands peek through.
They are very cold.
I wonder if our babies will have my hands or Javin's.

I could never be a communist.
The theoretical kind of communism, of course.
I am very territorial.

If my fear
is an illusion,
so is my
hope.

I'm a liar.
I've been pretending this whole time, and it's a shame that no one notices.
I am sad again, and terribly lost.
I hate eating. I hate being this, being me.
I want to go back to my support at the program, I want to leave this ugly real world
and go back.
I want daily meetings and supervision. I want to feel special and important
I want to be happy.
and I'm just not.
No one notices;
not my boyfriend who's been out all night partying with his friends.
not my bestfriend who just left to Cabo.
not my mom who hasn't spoken to me in days.
not my ownself who's going ******* insane.
I need someone, anybody, everybody.
I'm alone and I hate it.
I hate every ******* thing.

**is it too much to want to be loved?

Brushing long gray fur
Heavy boy, your purr soothes me
Dearest feline friend
There are places
on my skin that
have been carved out
or in
I can't remember
getting all of them
so I am sure to
remind these forgotten marks
they will always
mean something to me
even if I wear a few
more proudly
than the
rest

Awoken
by pounding on the door
at two in the morn
stumble up
fumble with the lock
two of my dear friends
hammered and in shock
that I answered
Both beautiful
despite their state
before I could say,
"Hey"
They kissed my face
and bit my neck
hugged me
to and fro
I know they were
drunk
but those were
the first kisses
I've had in months
and months
I fell asleep
with a
smile
Daniel Magner 2013
Had my wisdom
ripped from me
today
mouth jumbled
in a slew of words
verbs
slurs
slept deep
flying with the birds
not knowledge less
but none the
wiser

Whispers in thick nights,
smoke curls around her dead eyes,
rotting memories.

Strange feelings inside.
Rotting from the inside out.
These feelings, they ****.

Dead eyes and black blood,
demons clamor for feeding.
Gorging on my gods.
