My tiny terrorist,
Wreaking havoc upon the neat assortment of squish
That occupies the empty space of my bed.
With a wild look in your eye,
The fires of destruction glow brighter
Than the candle I hold to my lover’s name.
He now reeks of inconvenience;
The prey in the palm of his predator.
I wore my wounds under long sleeves,
Tenderized the meat on my bones with salt—
When I was delirious,

February 14th,
A day you spend with your loved one,
A day full of love and fun.
Oh, how I love you so much,
I wish that I could feel your touch.
You mean the whole world and more to me,
Your love is as peaceful as can be.
Others may laugh and judge,
But with a love like this, there is no such.
Now, I will spend the day rotting away with you in bed,
Eating, cuddling and whatever more,
The beau...
I feel something warm and fuzzy
like I'm about burst in joy
The feeling is jumping and buzzing
and it doesn't stop there OH BOY!
My pulse,beating
Mouth, squeaking
legs, wiggling
hands, jiggling
My body is the center of the system
my head is turning round and round,stopped thinking
You might be wondering why am I doing this today
I've figured it out
FRANK THE GOOSE DAY...
Before I met you,
I hated you:
I wanted a cat,
Or a dog,
Not an oversized rat,
Drawn wrong.
Big red eyes,
Messy white fur.
Suddenly,
I noticed I wanted to get near,
Closer to you.
I saw from a different point of view,
A different perspective,
All that hate: I left it,
I love you,
I said it.
Before I met you,
I hated you,
Big red eyes now dull,
And lifeless.
See how cruel life is....
It was just me and her again, here on this bed. I felt bad that I was always taking her here, she deserved to go somewhere better, like a coffeeshop for instance. Take her on a plane and go somewhere away from this place. Perhaps, I should take her to the beach. The only thing I could say with certainty that I do give her though is a lot of love. She could never say I don’t love her because I do. ...
I have many things I love that isn’t a person.
How do I pick just one?

You are always there
When I want to go on an adventure
When I want to get lost
In a world
That isn’t reality
I can make friends
That won’t hurt me
Songs
Make me feel
Seen
Make me feel
Loved
With every lyric
With every cord
Music can make people
Feel things
That they need to feel
It can heal
Memories
They can hurt
