Have me
Halve me
Take me
Break me into two
If you
Salve me
I will speak like lovers do
If you
Solve me
Your embrace I will take to
You will never have to do
The things you used to have to do
You will never have to choose
Between two evils and a ruse
How my heart has ached for you
How my heart still breaks for you
Let safety be your embrace true
And I will cry for love of you.
Halve me

This has been sitting in my drafts for months, haha. Thought I should finally just post it and stop tweaking. Feedback appreciated!

We were happy.
High enough to touch the clouds, fingers pulling through soft wisps, dragging through the endless swathes of pink.
You kissed a heartbeat into me. You kissed words onto my tongue.
The sun peaked overhead as your skin shone a cool...
If silence had a scent, it would smell like you.
The way my thoughts smooth over like a calming wave when you hold my hand, even this close to sleep. Even this close to sleep, you hold me– not like glass, but something like it, and your hair smells like soap and soft grass and I want to pull that into my lungs until it becomes me.
Your arm around my chest, around my shoulders– it’s like a famili...
Hello
Old friend
It’s been awhile
You’ve missed me, maybe
Have you? I have not.
It’s so difficult to hang out
Because I always end up crying on
Someone’s bathroom floor, feet braced against the door
You know you hurt me, so why come back?
Maybe because, despite all my talk, I still need you....
Dream within a dream
Heart within a heart
All we cannot see
Are things we cannot part with
Cover me in sand
Lift me into sleep
Once I find the lost hand
I might finally keep it
Storm, small storm
Under my skin
Pulling me in
Warm, here it’s warm
As it never fully is
Without you
Should my shelter
Ever come to harm
Would I
Close my eyes
Would I
Now unsee
What I’ve always needed
What I’ve always wa...
I remember you asking me, “Why do you cut yourself open like that?” I didn’t know the answer until the words came out of me; the vessel carrying contents unknown, the messenger reading lines unwritten and unread.
“Because no one else will do it for me.”
No one else will splay me wide, every expression, every sentence laid bare.
No one else will flay the truth from my bones. I, alone, can point ...
I love our silences.
The unspoken
Current of thought flowing,
Enveloping the room.
My mind drifts, alighting
On various cool, smooth pebbles
Like a river feeling out its edges.
I love the serenity,
Sleepy and warm
That comes over me.
We trade our wordless sentences
For an eternity.
Before we part,
I cut you from myself like
A flower from a stem.
Because as much as I enjoy
This intricate ritual ...
Perhaps I am a wretch
Perhaps I am a god
Perhaps I am an optimist beneath this grim facade
Or maybe my identity
Lies leagues beneath the sea
Amid the Stygian darkness, where sunken valleys be
Perhaps I am a songbird
Perhaps I am a seed
And maybe what defines me is my weakness and my need
Yet
No matter who I am
Thirty thousand years from here
This heartbreak hurts, and I cannot contain it within...
Gregor Samsa looks up at the vast sea of human-sized insects, barely making out their large carapacious bodies. He lifts an arm to block out the blinding lights of the stadium. The clicking, snuffling, hissing language of the crowds is deafening.
A voice (voice?) screams shrilly over a loudspeaker. The noise from the crowds dies down. A thick scraping noise is the only sound that can be heard for...
Things were shaping up very badly; with an ax-wielding maniac hot on her heels, Naomi was starting to regret her involvement in this case. She clutched the file folder to her chest and ran even harder, feet pumping faster and faster — only to round the corner, straight into a dead end....
