Duvet days under the sheets
We looked up at the stars
Promised each other the world
Not knowing there was mars
God of war looking over
Linen covers and pillowcase smiles
Thought warmth was sunshine
Turned out to be fires
Said set me free with your love
Should of been set me from such
You claim you aren’t a narcissist
Yet can’t prove as much
Your empty and cold
I’m left dying on the floor
Yet yo...
Oh,
Oh my dearest one
How you shine bright
Brighter than the pulsing sun
And when you speak
You words are a tumble of grace
Pulled forth with silk
And ribbons of gold and lace
Your lips!
So plush and full
They could grant me sleep
With the presses of such lips, a lull
Your eyes though
Your eyes
Blazing balls of orange heat
Sometimes
They pain me
Make me
Curse me
Leave me be!
They stare at me...
I'm a lie
I am my picture,
I don't really fit the way
I’m today, but if you let me
I would want to share my day
I'm painting with the brightest colors
Better versing of myself
Not from hate, or mind's reflecting
I just want to look the same
Chestnut hair – it still amazes
People, they say it should be short-cut,
Ginger strands that left from painting
Never washed away – that's price
Amber eyes,...
here’s some things to know about me:
people think i’m self obsessed,
i only care when it benefits me best
but that’s not true—i care for you!
they just judged before they knew
i love words—writing and books!
i just don’t have marvelous looks…
i’m 100% straight, you see
sorry—only men for me!
pictures of my very best friend
are all over my bedroom
my favorite colors are purple and gold

I see you try
You beautiful idiot.
I know the effort you put it
In making the world a place worth living in.
I feel you care, and worry, and act irrationally
Your mistakes forever etched in your soft skin
And you’re still my hero
A fragile colossus
A damned brave little girl
A kick-ass mess....
Your despondent reluctant glance
With eyes bereft of light
Meets mine
Reflecting what I already know
You
Ashamed restless pensive you
Occupy my every waking hour
With the sorrow regret retribution
New beginnings as you swear
To remain faithful devoted true
Would I have it any other way?
Flaxen hair carried by the breeze
Freckled sun dappled cheeks
Innocently smiling as you bend
To the will o...
My quirks
My quirks
Show you how my brain works
They hint at what’s going on
And all of my unique perks
I like, to keep, my room as organized as it can be
But my bunched up clothes and messes in drawers is all that you can’t see
I obsess, over, something for a few weeks
And drop it after learning a new skill, or a new technique
I expect, the worst, to be satisfied with the results
