one thousand stinging spines
creeping upward from inside
crawling along my spinal cord
up the small of my back
...
break of dawn
sun breaking through black
a sincere breakthrough
break it off
...
sitting bare - foot
cross legged in the grass
ripped up blue jeans
boyfriend's t - shirt
...
black-white
solids or stripes?
yellow and chocolate; white chocolate
dappled not gray
...
friendship; ; in the form of
d e c e p t i o n
clinging to reality...
or lack there of;
...
your narcolepsy...
one last photograph
lucid eyes...memories
faded sharpie says it all;
...
i thought if my screams were loud enough
you'd rescue me
but you were deaf to the sound of my voice
your own earpiercing lullaby
...
words fresh from the heart
that i keep in a locket
around my neck
[my noose]
...
my beloved
you wait with bated breath
for a smile upon my lips
your frantic eyes a pleuthora of colors
...
you call me babe
you hold my hand
but i'm not sure i understand
how you can feel the way you do
...
