you, my best kept secret and well known sin
you give me life only to kill me again

You Took Away My Summer.
I thought you were different,
I thought we got it right,
but you took away my summer
and ran with all your might.
You used my sun to please you,
you stole my warmth, my light-
and when you robbed the rest of me,
I didn't even put up a fight…
Now, in my endless winter,
darker days and colder nights-
I try to find a spark inside me,
but there’s nothing left to ignite.
[ Aija Louise @aijalouise ]

In a matter of months, the tides began to turn, an aggressive slight of hand, crooked glances sweep, quietly over my shoulders. She no longer idolizes, kindness or gentle words, disillusioned by compassion, naively she sits a little closer, breathing in the calm, before the storm.
Looking at me intensely, as I observe her disdain, for a phantom reflection, that doesn't exist, so cold, she despises her self- image. I made myself right at home, crawling into this space, with her rage, and bitter hate that's constant and relentless.
Quietly, I begin to feel afraid, disoriented but standing still, who am I in the room with? seated beside her, I feel ill. She feels so familiar to me, with a skewed perception, that's never been my reality.
A delicate web engulfs me, falling into open arms, I am quietly guided away, from her narcissistic grip. I designed my own escape, and the person who returned, was worth tearing myself apart, to uncover the young woman, who's bravery and courage made me who I am today.

I understand now that I'm not a mess but a deeply feeling person in a messy world. I explain that now, when someone asks me why I cry so often, I say, "For the same reason I laugh so often... Because I'm paying attention."

They lie and say that
summer ends too soon.
We can soak ourselves
in the conundrum of
mud puddles or
we can be
mindful in self-rebellion.
The cure for
cancerous ghosts isn't
death; it
is life.
So live
like a cheetah
chasing its tail.
Robert J. W. (7-3-23)

Once suffering ends
The gloom of the sky descends
Golden sun-warming frosted skin
Spreading a grin
Maybe love will fascinate
It May begin to captivate.
A heart may not heal
But a soul will begin to mend.

What do you do, when your problem and your solution, is the same person?

God, I loved you once you bastard
When I was a child, I used to hear a lot of wonderful things about you, God
I heard you were a God full of love and that it pained you to punish others
And yet you'd always seek to make an example out of someone
Oh, and I heard you were merciful and compassionate
But I read how you destroyed cities you could've easily changed
Yes, I heard that you were peaceful and understanding!
No, you'd lose your temper so easily!
And how could I forget your wish to save YOUR people?!
Then you dragged the rebel angel onto US!
YOU ARE A GOD OF LOVE
BUT YOU DETEST PEOPLE LIKE ME
God… I always thought you were very confusing and controlling
Slowly, I realized that I never knew you at all
It hit me. You were only an amalgamation of what people wanted you to be
A savior, a father, a friend, an escape
There was a time when you were my whole world,
A time where I prayed feverishly to the sky, in hopes you'd free me from this 'sin'
But you're selfish, you're hateful, and it doesn't pain you at all to destroy the things you create
God I loved you once, you bastard!
I've learned a hard lesson
And that is, it's okay to love myself instead of you

I was told never to tell, that it was only you, who knew me so well. Who could understand, all of my rage and anger, in the ways that you do?
So I sat there, confused, all alone in my room. Until one quiet morning, you threw open the door, and stumbled helplessly, fainting upon the floor.
I never left my bed, you looked so pitiful, and I no longer cared. All I could remember, were the countless times, I reached out, in the dark, for empty hands, lifeless, so cold, mirrors and smoke.
I stared down, into your eyes, and for the very first time, I felt absolutely nothing, but still asked "Are you okay?" It was far more kindness, than you will ever deserve, for the years you had spent, treating me as if, I didn't exist.

My throat tightens, terrified.
The word I'd use to describe my constant state, no matter where i am in life, i am terrified.
A suffocating darkness, my throat tightens in your presence.
Your dark void of a body, a blinding blackness of nothing, yet everything.
You stood there, i lay there, terrified, and suffocating.
Your presence is terrifying, yet comforting. Sometimes i miss you,
You make me choke.

I wish you were
still just a
human to me,
I don't want
to look at you
& see poetry.
