"My body wants more. More love, more affection, more romance. And my mind despises it all."

When love turns cold
You stare at the ceiling
You search for truth in his words and depth in his eyes
Only to find these shallow pools bearing drops of lies
Your still silent cries, silent yearning for the days before you laid in wait anticipating goodbyes
When the love was a fire, when there was a spark
Flashbacks to late nights of blushes and echoes of laughter in the dark, a supercut of brushes of skin and kisses on cheeks
The great highs...
Before these glaciers of longing that leave you shivering
And you just wish that he could go back to being as passionate as the beginning
But now he's cold, this arctic you can't bare
So you lay there and you stare at the ceiling
And you try to let go, accept it for what it was but letting go never gets here too fast and when it does it never lasts.

happy thoughts, they tell me,
"fill your head with happy thoughts"
oh, how i wish to
but the thing is,
my mind
is already crowded
and my demons
won't let any of these
"happy thoughts"
ruin their own
idea of a "merry-go-round"

The Small Pocket in my Jeans is for the Worm...
Transgenerational Inheritance. Worms are supposed to be model organisms for studying transgenerational inheritance. They form associative memories. Olfactory ones. Soft and gentle with marked strings around their body like a tiny harp. If you bludgeon them when they are busy sticking their retrograde in the pavement they curl and arch like a holy roof. My once polished shoes, sullied. The hallowed ground reeks of half-stubbed cigarette butts, acrid and lingering in the cold dark earth they call their home. Drops of whiskey-neat in jelly cups leaking over brunch, the inebriated father worm has a predilection to the odor. The mother worm initiates silencing that is distributed evenly among her descendants. I keep thinking about behavioral plasticity when I am lying down in my labyrinthine cave system with rich minerals and other skeletons who hate you. The ability of the offspring-worm to redirect the predilection of his father toward himself and bear it out like his mother. I exchange meaningful glances with the severed head of the father worm. This collusion however does not save the offspring worm from his father’s legacy and his mother’s fate. And when I am lying gently in this cold dark earth, my blood is my father’s blood. And when we are rotting in the ground. His face will be glaring back at me with the utter disdain and disappointment only a father can truly have.

So much anger and don't know how to dispurse
Running away from my hitch gave me heartache
All I heard is my heart pummel fast to the grass
I suddenly kick my self up and saw a cat
The cat meow so deafening and then I hault
I trail behind the cat to see where it will lead me too
I saw a man and he gave me an strawberry
An strawberry so saccharine burst me into a sunshine
I feel asleep in the grass and started dreaming
I saw a man so tall he seize my hand to his
He walk me to a Ferris Wheel and their he sat with me
As scare as I was, I bite my lips tight
He bought me cotton candy and I ate
A million response came out and I can't control it
He gave me a cloud notebook so I can jot thing down
Then he kiss my forehead and I fell asleep
He snap his fingers and I came back to reality
I sway my arm around the grass and saw a notebook
He wrote " Darling just breathe and everything be ok. "

I don't think I am a good person. I grew up drowned in compliments. I was a pretty girl dressed up as an ugly one. I grew up in my fathers yelling, and it doesn't make much sense really, but you're not looking for beauty in hell but for peace. You're looking for a quiet place to read and a calming night to hug my mother without being scared. I don't think I am a good person. I think I have become what I hate most. I think that sometimes I am too much and that my voice is too loud and my breathing too heavy. I don't think I am a good person. I didn't think so when I made my mother cry because she didn't know how to make me stop wanting to kill myself and I didn't think so when my sister begged me that all she asked for was for me not to stop loving her. I don't think I am a good person. I didn't think so when I met you, and I responded dryly even tho you said "hi" with the biggest smile on your face. I didn't know if I was a good person when you texted me, and I responded while leaving everyone else on read. I didn't know if I was a good person when you called me pretty, and I blushed, and you smiled. I didn't know if I was a good person when you asked me to dance and I said yes. I didn't know if I was a good person when you asked me on a date and I said yes.
I still don't know if I am a good person but for some reason you do think so.
And the thing is I am a liar. You don't know shit about me. You don't know about how I treated everyone like shit last year, how I ghosted every single guy that wanted to get to know me. You don't know why I was scared to be seen by people from my past when I was with you that day. Because what if they tell you? What if they tell you that you are fucking crazy for even thinking of talking to me? What would you think? Would you back away? Start leaving me on read like I did all those guys? Start doing everything you should do before it's to late? Before I start to love you? Even worse, before you start to love me?
I am a liar. And with you, I am running away from a past that keeps chasing me, and you are the only thing standing in the way. I'm sure if you knew half of this shit you would think I should go to hell and fuck myself like everyone else does buy you're the only one I want to keep from that, if only I could get you to stay even after knowing all my sins. Please tell me I am a good person even if I'm not. Please...

I long to feel the way i did
I long to see your smile again
I long so desperately for you to show up at the door
The same door you left me through before
I miss you
I long for you
I long to want to look my best for you
I long to have the relationship i made in my head with you
But thats just the truth
I will long
And it will be a long long
Because i need to accept you aren’t coming back

I swim deeper everyday
More what people think
Soaking with emotions
One day, hoping
Till I feel everything
Into the deepest, for a treasure
Recklessly, I try
Enduring the thorns
Damages invisible to the eyes.

i am still known
as the girl who
writes poems
though the truth is
i can barely come up
with a line
that could have
made you
change your mind

Entrances
Further away from my door,
Away on a moor,
They tie me to currents
For them to me subdue
Prosaic such pain
The machine beeps
The sun stops shining
I’ve given up on sleep.

My life may look perfect in someone else’s life.
Those brown ocean eyes are filled with tears of sadness.
Sometimes my lips can barely escape my demon.
My ears is trying to hear God talking
My legs are running in circles around the earth.
My heart is pacing at a lighting speed trying to escape the darkness.
My arms are feeling so exhausted trying to look for water.
Finally, I turn back and see some light coming towards me.
I knelt on the floor and prayed to God.
I pray and repent for all my sin that I have done wrong.
Hoping for your forgiveness
Then I suddenly felt God presence saying that  is going to be okay
