SHOWING: First 60
a thin ray of sunshine seeps over my skin at his thoughtfulness. my heart is so easily won over by the most seemingly minute gestures of kindness. this is what makes connections with people so terrifying. i’m too quick to give my heart away. it’s as if i’m begging for it to be ripped in pieces, and it has on many occasions before. with that reminder, i push the feeling aside knowing that peter will one day leave me to die too#76,448,771textdoes she know, the way I long for her
how my heart aches to be in her hands
I see her and I fall apart
if only he knew, the way he makes me feel
the way he bends time, slows the world
an unstoppable force, all for him
two hearts, unaware of their mirrored ache
the shreds of reality, peel away#76,317,905textthe world around us slows
then stops
my chest feels heavy
and light as a plume
your eyes-
interwoven gazes
entrap me, darling
let me be the moth
enamored with the glow
of the flame
let me be the sunflower
forever gazing
awaiting the glory of the sun
let me be the ocean
ebbing and flowing
with the tides of the moon
let me be
everything to you
and lose myself in your light#76,261,212textthat incredulous look in your eye
did my quote-unquote
condescending tone trigger you?
did you find yourself on the other side
of the sharpened blade of my knife?
tell me, how does it feel?
is it sublimely bitter-
the taste of poison in your mouth?
you beg for the antidote
seeking mercy at my feet
begging forgiveness
a grand trojan horse of a display
but i see through your sins
and finally, i walk away unscathed
let your faux white flag burn where it stands#76,229,699texti drink of your champagne
effervescent
electric
i’m intoxicated
by the chemicals
as they course through my veins
swimming in your champagne
drowning in you#76,210,674textit is sad to let sadness go#76,108,273text
