unwelcome guest
D Apr 2019
hello again, my fateful friend,
your visit is alarming

your smile still as charming
your pressence is disarming..

sweetie
D Apr 2019
i wont let you keep on reading,
keep on seeing and peeping,
let you keep on being
a little tom;

boy you sure know how
to push every button somehow,
but hey this is getting kinda long;

now don't go getting greedy,
after all you love the feeling
of knowing you're her --
-- at least this time around.
the role of *her* is a fate set in stone; alone.

midnight madness
D Apr 2019
all my sadness falls away and so do my senses
i'm feeling pretty senseless
my mouth is pretty reckless
my tongue is doing dances and there's a weight that's been lifted
clothes are being shifted
i'm feeling pretty gifted
it was so, so good.
D Apr 2019
here i am
wet from my torrid affairs
thinking about forgiveness

where am i
heading if not to the gardens
to peace and everlasting life
no not there. not if i died tomorrow.
D Apr 2019
its always everything all at once
there's no break
no reprieve

so please express youself away from me
by fall out boy*

not actually

easy
D Mar 2019
trusting him is easier when i force myself to not look
because prying eyes aren't the eyes to get lost in

trusting him is easier when i dont listen to my gut
because above all else i want to keep him
not looking for answers

good goodbyes
D Mar 2019
the way he kisses me, sometimes..
it leaves my toes curling,
those butterflies churning,
and I'll tell you, I've never felt so alive.
and he's all mine

i like the quiet simplicity,
and i'm lost some where in my dreams;

tempting me is a life unfufilled,
a world where there's just you and me.
i feel like  i dont  try enough when i write lately


and i miss him

struggling to love
or to leave a friend

i can cut you out
like a cancer
consuming my heart

but that doesn't mean
i'll forget you
and everything you are

ship
D Feb 2019
in my time away
i've been thinking
if love is love
why am i sinking
under the weight
of loving him
or am i dragging myself under the waves of pain, helpless

if i didn't i would float up and away, alone

stay
D Feb 2019
it's kinda sad now really,
that such a fleeting feeling,
can mean so much the moment that it fades

and i'm really quite agreeing,
to the words that could be meaning,
that it's up to me whether I choose to go or stay
i choose to stay

in the loudest moments my truth whispers
to silence the noise of a voice
that only does me harm
i wont listen

soft off-white pages,
velvet leather spine,
wrapped in cloths of silk,
with edges, gold inlined

a book of poems; a really *fine* book of poems

'milk and honey' by rupi kuar is a good poetry book btw check it out

to shred my shriveled soul

left unheard
may as well rake me through the coals

blurb
D Jan 2019
so might make a second account that's anon and just write the most foul **** in my mind there? is that better than posting it here-- not even up for debate actually my friends and s.o. read this **** from time to time so even though i'm pretty good at subtle imagery the most ****** up thoughts i have just can't be twisted into blooming flowers and ocean waves so.. you'll never know if its me or not but i'll definitely know if you find me.
putting this out there

mascara running like painted lines down my face
almost like i did it on purpose
almost because i did
i keep it short even though i have a lot more to say

lowkey because i actually **** at poetry and this enables me to mask that factiod

dreamer
D Jan 2019
dreams are just dreams
until they mean something
promises are just words
until they're broken
your heart is just an *****
beating inside your chest
until one day you find it's left
behind a gaping hole
your dream the night before
now foreboding
i'm tired, but dreaming has become less fun

I didn't use to get the expression

because I never use to do anything
i love a lot. i still want to die.

eyes half shut and
lips parted
his sweet loving

my tongue

my lips are numb
someone remind me to not die

fix
I was wrong
love has conditions
one of them is to please
not tease
and
if
I

can breathe
I'm doing it wrong
its like he /hates/ me when my mouth is full of words instead of ***

inkling
D Dec 2018
I tell myself I'm better, the best I've ever been!
then why do I still feel the same?
a stranger in my skin,

I've lost all will to live, deserted my wishes to the wind.
I know in ways it's not so bad,
but who am I to win?

I tell myself I'm better, at least the best I'll ever get.
because when things go up,
they come back down,

and by then I'll be dead I bet.
not worried about it

its late isnt it
D Dec 2018
I feel alone in my sorrows
like no matter how many times,
you can't possibly understand
because you're too good at being you,
while I'm stuck being me
and the unfairness of it leaves me feeling lost
I don't want to make you feel as I do,
no I just wish there was a way I could show you
help you see clearly inside my heart
I know it can be dark in there but
who else can I show myself to if not you?
I need help
I feel sick
where


are you?
hmm.. trauma is a good word for it, no?
