Soft,
Soft hands,
Soft hands I would like to hold.
And perfect,
Perfectly shaped lips
I would like to breathe against,
To tell you I love you
Directly
Into your open mouth.

I'll meet you at the crossroads,
Mighty Goddess of the liminal spaces,
Borderless night-wanderer.
Hekate, born of the Stary Night,
She who blessed all the souls,
I'll let your darkness swallow me,
For i'm your devotee.

waiting for you is like waiting for the sun to rise;
inevitable,
and yet standing on that hill,
watching the moon slip behind the clouds
as the warmth peeks out to replace the silver glow,
I feel like i’m waiting alone.

I fuck myself every night
Thinking about you
Is that too intimate?
Are my words too intimate
Writing poetry about you
Fucking you
Fucking myself
I drew us together
Too intimate for the eyes to bare
For this, you will never hear my poetry
You will never see the art that comes from you
Though I want to show you so badly
I want to intimately read you my poetry while you fuck me
While you hold me and make me feel small
So I will fuck myself
Reading my poetry
Every night

girl of the desert
somewhere in the land of the bedouins, away from the skyscrapers and traffic and wars and modernism and traditionalism, deserts lie calm, whispering their secrets into the december wind that blows across.
dunes stand tall and proud like the arabs, a blended sea of gold and red and brown— a hush falls over it. winter wind blows again. clouds like a dark blanket over the sky— lonely girl stands, tall, proud, wide-eyed.
a colored shayla ruffles up her curls— she holds it in place at her chest, scrunched up above her jalabiya— colored like cream, silvery rhinestones peppered along the neckline and sleeve
she walks, her bare feet disturbing the smooth layers of mineral, grains making way for her as she leaves her mark on the sea of sand. the world holds its breath for her, refusing to spill its tears on the lonesome arab girl.
the sun hides from her, nestled in the dunes— it dips lower into the horizon, illuminating the skyscrapers perceptible in the distance. sharp blue buildings tinged with fiery orange— but wait. it stops, and they stare at each other
girl versus sun. blinking their eyes, anticipating— who will back down first? both are stubborn. a cloud passes, sheilding the star from her, and she smiles, triumphant, when it goes down and finally recedes to where she does not see.
a voice calls out. she turns around and she sees five people. three girls, two boys, standing, smiling, next to her parents. she beams at the sight of them, and she digs her henna'ed feet into the ground before she joins her family. the sand slows her down.
rain dances its way down, kissing the ground, painting dots into the surface of the desert sea. the moment freezes, and a snapshot is taken in the desert girl's memory, forever remembering the december wind, rain, and the red-gold sand.

Love Dad
I love and support you but I believe lgbt shouldn’t be said in schools
I love and support you but there are two sides to every issue
I love and support you but children should be with parents who don’t affirm their gender
I love and support you but I still love the church that taught you to hate yourself
I love and support you but most of my friends think you’re an abomination
I love and support you but I could identify as a toaster and people would have to respect it right?
I love and support you but they is not a singular pronoun
I love and support you but this doesn’t make sense to me
I love and support you but they shouldn’t throw it in our faces
I love and support you but trans people shouldn’t get to choose the bathroom they use
I love and support you but trans surgeries shouldn’t be covered by insurance
I love and support you but people who dressed as the opposite gender when you were a kid were mocked as monsters and pedophiles
I love and support you but as a child I tried to convince you that lgbt couples shouldn’t have or adopt children
I love and support you but I voted against marriage equality
I love and support you but I want roe v. Wade appealed
I love and support you but I will never acknowledge your identity to the rest of my family
I love and support you but I will listen to anti-trans “news” out loud where you can hear it
I love and support you but I can’t talk about this anymore
I love and support you but I wouldn’t love and support you if you didn’t share my DNA

Silent Silver Rain
Why can’t anyone see the rain clouds
With all my raindrops on the school grounds
Even among the thundering crowds
Not a single umbrella can be found
I always tried to avoid the puddles from the rain
But such attempts have always been in vain
Leaving me to shiver from the cold wet pain
I’ll try to find the sun so I won’t complain
Why can no one see the storm clouds in the sky
With all the water works in my eyes
There was only sunless silver skies
But I would say it was sunny sky blue and lie
I now have more sunny sky blue days
After being freed from the high school grays
I can bask in the warmth of the sun's rays
As I have found manies caring gaze

~ The wish to not forgive ~
Like any delusional freak, I’ve been thinking of you. Walking down the streets I kinda wish I saw you… I wish you saw me and begged for forgiveness And you wouldn’t get it; I wish I could tell you to your face, “I do not forgive you”; To make you beg, like how I groveled at your feet before, You would plead and cry and come up with excuses, To make me think I’m wrong, like how you did before, I wish you knew how much of a pathetic weed you are The only thing you will ever get from me is a not-subtle “Fuck. You.” But the streets are empty, You are nowhere near sight, I kinda wish I had the chance to send my last reply…

My poem, "Nonbinary".
"don't look at me anachronistically
don't create an archetype
of the androgyne
i'm not a woman
i'm not a man
i'm not an androgyne
you don't need archetypes to glance at human
with an ardent care in your eyes
you don't need to make an androgynous box for me
i'm not in between
i hadn't been i'm not i won't be
the way i imagine myself
have nothing to do with your gaze
insensible and blurred
it all doesn't exist
i'm a being
i
essence
or even not an essence
i just am
inner essence is all i have
ask me about my identity
ask me with love
don't force me to be your ideal nonbinary
don't point at any contrast and encounter of the lines
don't define me as someone in between
the moon is not feminine
the sun is not masculine
the moon is lunar
the sun is solar
they are beautiful
not binary
not animal alike
that's all i said"
- Lucien Skirlińskie.

This rage has always been with me. Hovering, watching, waiting.
We were formed at once within the womb and born entwined.
The ghost of a twin absorbed in utero
Became a shadow of anger that has never left me feeling alone.
Wrath has kept me warm when all else was cold, distant.
It has guided me through the dark and brought me here, for better or worse.
Silently screaming, violently kicking anything in my way, punching walls,
And doing damage to myself.
It has never felt contained,
A devil on my shoulder bellowing to destroy, to break, to ruin.
Floogates open, the pressure builds, and I crumble.
I am engulfed in black flames and I burn down everything.
You'd think someone with this.. abundance of sorrow and tears at the ready
Could extinguish herself.
But at such extreme temperatures, water fuels oxygen to explosives,
A catalyst for greater destruction.
How do you rid yourself of duality?

“You are my sanctuary, you are the doorway to my warmest memories. These words are carved into the laughter you bring me. They are born from every tear thats fallen into your hands. Tattooed to my virtue. Without judgement.”

I have a video on my phone.
It’s been on there since 16 August 2022 at 16:56
I think my brother would laugh at it
But I still haven’t sent it.
I could send it and then delete it but as my iCloud fills and the alerts start coming through.
The video stays.
I think my brother would laugh at it.
And something so deep in me that I couldn’t name it if I tried.
Something in me needs to hear him laugh.
What is love if not a video you save just to see someone smile?

To be, work hard .. To not, kiss the dark..
I close my eyes, I don't see dark
Dreams and visions, not to be lost.
Made out of gold, sparks in the dark.
Here to be lived, for money I never cared.
To be or not, I won’t kiss the dark.
To be or not, easy come easier lost.
To be or not, In the abyss never leapt.
To be or not, always seeking to be good.
To be or not, I keep my faith and undying trust.
