you are systemic infection you try to stroke the bowl of my belly, it's not romantic & sends the sea swimming my muddy eyes a flood. your mouth sounds out words; they ask how i'm feeling, but i don't tell you what i didn't eat for breakfast this morning or the triple digit number of calories shoved down my throat yesterday. i don't mention the measuring tape noosed about my waist, just to keep those twenty-two inches slender. how could i explain how sometimes i gently imagine wild animals tearing off my flesh them teeth scalpel sharp until me a pile of glittering bones. until i am perfect. you desert mirage. you so so very sweet leaf tea dancing on my tongue & thyou are systemic infection by ~princessevahaven
you are a coma i could rattle off a million words on the poetry of your body & how much you are, but we both know how none of them would stick. you'd still scratch your skin apart, trying to find the so called ugly thriving beneath. you still press fingers inside your delicate throat & try to empty the fuel tank. don't you never know so beautiful you are & then there's me. me, i like to swallow bitter pills trying to find a reason not to throw myself off the top floor your nighttime apartment building. give my feet the will to climb right up to the ledge. you serrated bread knife, sweet against my neck. you a lonely noose hanging from the apple tree.you are a coma by ~princessevahaven
you are ashes when i asked over coffee if you loved me anymore, your iron heart sang this low sad train whistle & my eyes felt all melancholic or some shit like that. every time & after, leave me shivering soaked with nostalgia for butterflies used to quiver them wings in my stomach. now it full of dead insects & it all your fault, fault, fault. you shards of glass pressed into my blue black throat, wish you knew i sure did love you, noose tight legs about my waist & long black hair, them eyes ocean deep & arms like forever. you a wildfire & i crashed right into you. our initials, now, they don't belong together but i was made for you, promised me alwyou are ashes by ~princessevahaven
you are dancer you tell me you don't care who sees your naked gooseflesh when you waltz behind our big picture window on the seventh floor in this goddamn appartment. watch you play on, the gospel of your narrow hips stirring up something like feeling, but we no storybook romance. you no snow white queen, lover. all i know is you, you & your fine arms strong like willow roots & when they cradle me, i feel you blanketing me first snow falling soft in your mousy hair. me drunk with hairless legs & the width of your electric green fingernails. you bow me like your favorite cello, drifting palms coaxing music between my quaking limbs. your velvety tongueyou are dancer by ~princessevahaven
you are midnight pasta i wanna take you to canada and learn your toes & elbows & tongue.you are midnight pasta by ~byakuchi
you so china doll perfect and i miss playing solitaire with you. you fever eyes & korea without a cause. you chocolate chips outta the bag, sugar spice cyanide and drink up babydoll. ave maria hallelujah, but you don't taste like jesus.
we used to be this thing. this thing that was kisses at night & your little sister walking down in the middle of an earthquake. we used to be this thing like winter & summer came we
melted
but we didn't really. you a teenage metaphor, freckles with hair dyed black & we th-th-thawed.
your mama didn't tell you that real life china dolls got s

you're tearing up napkins under lock & key. you're a
train-wreck gone
right in the worst possible way while i'm off
playing doctor with a man who ain't got a degree.
(meatball surgery leaves ugly scars &)
you paint an x on the tip of your nose & want it
chopped off & i live past the lies & ten steps
backward.
i think numbers and speak mazes,
but you make no sense in binary. i almost
had a daughter once & you
live like winter. secrets are like flowers
'cause the red ones show up in the
snow.
