Wretched,
thats how you make me feel.
I dream of you,
crawling up my walls like ivy,
invasive species, invaded mind.
I hate you,
deep inside me,
I’m surprised.
Enamoured.
Each day i am more angered,
and each day you’re more adored.
this isn’t what I wish for myself,
you leave me wanting more.
And yet i am wretched.
And yet I am yours.

I find myself washing to music,
as the pitter-patter of water hitting the tiled floor beneath my feet,
was never loud enough to mask the thoughts crawling through my mind.
Thoughts of what once was, what could be…
Thoughts of he said, she said, I said ‘Why?’.
It’s been years since I’ve allowed my mind to run free, standing there naked.
I not once planned on leaving the room silent, whilst I lean against condensation,
in a cold, steamy corner of my bathroom.
Yet today, my music cut off.
Suddenly my drawbridge was down, guards disarmed.
My shower curtain was no longer my moat, the water falling no longer my castle.
Then in on horseback, knight shining in armour…
Jousting at my cerebrum, was him.
No more past debates, no more ‘if I were fitter’, no ifs, buts and maybes.
Just hope for brighter days alongside him.
I may turn off the music from time to time.

Astral.
Your eyes align with the stars,
There’s constellations in the way you look at me.
You hold galaxies in your smile,
And your asteroids bring me peace, serenity.
You’re my Venus, and between us,
There she may lay.
I love you tomorrow,
I love you today.
Celestial in metaphor, but somehow,
you sit firmly on land, we’re hand in hand.
We’re eye to eye.
I am the Earth, and you are the Sun.
You are my sky.
My planets cling to you,
You are my black hole,
my vacuum, the magnet.
I’m forever your orbit,
Made to be around you,
I’m near, and I’m stagnant.

hello mother,
is the bottle calling again?
tell them i said hello,
we are becoming friends too.
you brought up on hatred
and irresponsibility,
i had to be loving,
i had to be responsible.
i was a mother to you
as much as i was your child,
no child should ever
tuck their mother into bed nightly.
i swore to never be you,
absolutely nothing alike,
but how can i avoid your antics
when thats how i was raised.
you got violent, you got angry
you got sad, and sappy,
the only thing you didn’t get,
was the title of ‘Mom’.

how dare you open me up like a book and
still be offended by my words.
nobody brought you to this library,
they just told you the library had been built.
how dare you confront me on my feelings,
when my feelings are just drunken words,
on your screen,
staring at your eyes,
whereas you have stared on my soul,
without permission,
without want you have read me like a book.

is that how its going to be?
undress me with your eyes,
love me with your smile,
undress me with your hands,
then leave me behind?
you’re a carrot on a stick.
you’re a bad dream.
you’re the sigh I let out in a morning.
is that how it was meant to be?
let me change my life,
let me break my vows,
allow me to fall,
then leave me on the ground?
you’re a kick in the groin.
you’re a slap round the face.
you’re the hate I have for mourning.

so was it something i said?
did i breathe too hard on the back of your neck?
is it something i did?
did i not leave enough room?
why won’t you let me close enough,
to wipe the sweat off your brow?
i wish i could be the wind in your hair,
but instead i seem to be the shiver in your spine.
did you simply just forget about me?
did you simply drift off to sleep?
have i simply overreacted?
last month i could spread my wings,
today i cant breathe without you.

i think you’re beautiful,
you think you’re subpar.
i think you’re wonderful,
you think that you’re scarred.
i think your eyes are holy,
you think that they sin,
i think youre welcoming,
you still wont let me in.
i think you’re the kindest,
you think you’re toxic,
i think i’m in love,
you call me lovesick.
i think you’re all i need,
you think i need more,
i think that you’re mine,
can you think i’m yours?

What god do I have left to call on?
Tell me.
What hope do I have left to cling on to?
Love is just another word for anger, disguised as a positive infection.
Yet I feel riddled with a disease of rage and frustration.
There is a frog in my throat, he is croaking regret.
Why do I put myself in these positions?
My nose is painted red, and squeaks when you squeeze it.
Hideous.
Nothing will help.
Nothing.
Love is not for winners, yet it’s not for losers like me.
I can’t stop screaming your name into the abyss.
I can’t stop craving you.
I wish.
I wish I could.

i slept with him yesterday and it was so romantic but i dont think it was meant to be i think im just hooked
hi tumblr LMFAOOO u do not need to know
nobody else will listen
it was like grass on a misty morning, it was like sun on the back of your neck, it was like roses, it was like a wish, or a dream, it was like nothing else was happening in this world
there was no war, no conflict, no sorrow, no doubt, there was only love, and peace, and joy
he was like a weighted blanket, he was like a hug or a helping hand, he was like resolutions and new beginnings, and he certainly was like pleasure.
to be honest guys sex has always just been sex, no miracle, but it was the best moment in my life
(or the best moments oh yeah baby boom shaka laka)
i then went to sleep in his arms, head on his chest, heart beat in ear, to him it was probably just bedtime, to me it was safety, it was warmth, it was love

i want you to want me
i want you think about me as much as i think about you
i want you to close your eyes and see me, as every night i dream of us
i don’t love you, not yet, but i can feel it brewing
and i don’t want to fall for you without knowing you’re falling too
i forget everything when im in your arms
i feel comforted by your touch, by your skin, by your smile
youre already starting to feel like home, and ive packed my bags, im waiting to move in
i may not be perfect, but i want you to settle for me
i may not be beautiful, but i want you to see beauty in me
everything you do puts a smile on my face
my face aches as ive not used these muscles in a while
i would pay with my life, just to know you think that way too
but i don’t expect you to.
i suppose this is a love letter from me to you
id send a carrier pigeon if i could,
but instead i’ll hold this in my memories and hope you never see it
but i truly am in adore of you
