I feel your gaze through the image on my screen—
the screen that binds our hearts in silence.
In the quiet between us lives a bond,
gentle, certain, and unwavering.

But oh, how I long for your touch
to linger on my skin—again and again.
Your grasp still hums within me,
like a memory, faint yet alive.

Ah—what lies between us aches in my chest,
until your lips curve, and I breathe again.
I close my eyes,
but the laughter in yours still peeks through—
soft, steady, kind, and soothing.

You may not know it,
but you are my four-leaf clover.
When the light dimmed,
you were the one who brought it back to me.

Your words carry belief—
not loud, but certain—
and somehow, that’s enough.

We had never truly known
what affection or passion looked like.
But you, my darling,
you didn’t just tell me what love is—
you showed me.

Of all the chances life could give,
you were the one it gifted me.
This poem is a reflection of love sustained across distance. It captures the quiet ache, the unspoken connection, and the gentle hope that lives in a long-distance relationship. Inspired by moments of longing and tenderness, “Between Us” is a reminder that love, even when apart, can still feel close, real, and healing.

Unclimatized from years in an emotional cell,
Now aching for freedom, where peace dares to dwell.
Each breath is a question, each step feels unsure,
As I relearn a world that once felt like a blur

The black rose, your favorite
The rose symbolizes love, the black, the withered and non-existent,
We watched it fade and called it fate,
the bloom went dark beneath love’s weight,
a black rose turned red on my part much too late

Love wrote the highs, loss read the byes.
Now silence pens the chapters where your voice once replied
Limes Carma May 1
No reaction to action
Left baffled by the way you were acting
From lovers to strangers, now barely reacting
Love you forever to cold replies — no reenactment
Yelling instead of talking, now silence is our last interaction

The way you held me hurt
In ways I can't describe.
You tore my arms, legs, back,
The rips growing deeper
With each **** meeting.
You stared at the tears in my skin,
Proud of yourself, aroused.
You scraped your claws over them,
Pulling them wider, prettier.
You pleased yourself, admiring your work.
I was perfect for you.
Sitting still and letting you disfigure me,
My body was not mine.
I was yours, signature and all,
Deep etchings in my skin
The same etchings I carve off,
only to grow them back.
You made me carve your name,
Over, and over, and over.
My fingers dull and numb,
Digging deeper for you to see,
For you to admire.
Though I was never enough.
Not close to satisfying your hunger.
Never a day passed
Where I would not dread seeing you.
About my first "relationship" (if you can even call it that).
I hope he is in the extra crispy section of hell, he deserves it.
In a corner of your deepest thoughts, I reprise,
As memories, forever I will dwell,
Where truth falls and mysteries will rise,
All time spent together, a story you can tell.

Bury my deep within your heart's depth,
Where my love soars with passion,
Where secrets will remain till death,
And love will reside, but in a prison.

Born in silence unknown to all,
Hidden from sight and depths unseen,
In your heart, the seed of my love will fall,
The world will know what it really means.

With each layer of earth, I will find a way,
Though buried deep, I will not evade,
To sprout anew with each passing day,
In your soul's comfort, mine will reside.

For in the darkest depths of your mind,
As long as you breathe and soul stays in the body,
My presence will remain in you confined,
So will I, unknown to this worldly.

Just watching to see
Just coming to breath
Just listening to be
Just living to explore
What is behind that shore?
Each moment brand-new
For me and for you
All roadmaps abondoned
I am on my own
Being guided by NOW
Seeing what's gonna show.

mmm
life feels worse
but good with you in it

a hate as hungry as this
consumes me whole

it keeps feeding on what remains
of the empty void you carved out
in my chest with the blade of betrayal

but, I knew what to do
to keep my lungs moving
after your departure

and ever since, I've hated you
as strong as I ever loved you...

for that is the only emotion
that allows me to live
(for my children)

in your stead

and so, my darling,
you have to know that...

I FCKN HATE YOU!
