Horizontal Asymptotes
my mom says the bags under my eyes
are lighter than they've been in years
the last time my face looked like i'd gotten
a full night's rest was that day at 3 o'clock
before my lungs swelled with fluid
in the third grade
before the doctors said I wouldn't make it to
christmas.
i didn't die, but i must have
i've been a ghost for years.
my mom says I look happier
my mom says I'm glowing
i slept for six hours last night and
i'm more rested than i've been in months
falling asleep presenting my poster
in second-period english
i started it with a raw red nose
my voice grating against the
inflammation in my throat
i don't believe in euthanasia, but in my case, it might be merciful
at least three laughs
that's a win in my book
after class, my english teacher drops
5 cough drops in my palm
sweet like candy, sugar coating my throat
in august, i run into an orange cat
on my walk home from school
he lets me pet him
but then he bites
i walk down the same alley
the next day
and the next
and he greets me every day
By october, I've named him garfield
and he forgets to remember to bite me
october and he runs up to me as soon as
he sees me.
october and i'm wearing your hoodie, and
the boy who loves me most
isn't who i thought it would be
in the hallway, the curly-haired boy
i called mine waves, and his hands accuse me.
selfish
yes, i know.
i'm sorry i couldn't love you as long as
i promised i would.
liar
yes, well, you lied too.
both our hands are too stained with sin
to hold each other
october and his hands accuse me
every 5-minute passing period
by january i will have forgotten
his hands left ravines in my skin
by january i won't remember that once,
all my roads lead back to him.
by january i will have forgotten.
october.
15 days with you have seemed
more real than 8 months painted blue
i am forgetting that
i loved the color blue
i am watching the world turn orange
i am watching my world turn yellow
you kiss me at the red light
and I'm singing along against your lips
in biology, we learn about
dendrites
and vacuoles
and 80 ss ribosomes
your arms around me,
my hands on yours,
my knees against the altar
my youth pastor tells you
this is the only allowable purple
i'm crying and
my smile reaches my eyes this time
how did I get this lucky?
you say it wasn't luck
your hoodie smells like bonfire smoke and
the thing is, i don't wanna die anymore and
i haven't for a long time
even on my bad days
i guess what I'm trying to say is
i love you

The brown eyes
How long have I noted
But never admitted,
The ubiquitously known!
I never ran this deep
In something so slender
It felt like sinking in vortex
With tremendous intense
It made me unsure if,
Have I strayed in mystery of them
Or have I just found where I really belong
I never knew gush of running
In a field full of elegance
Like the grace is brushing me with love
And the tenderness is blessing my soul
The warmth in it
Unraveled its enigma,
But I never know what is it?
Those eyes hold the heaven
When glared at them
But they also hold the heaven
Even when you glower
The angels must have known
They must've known the brown eyes
Oh lord, the brown eyes!

But oh, beloved: your smile is music to me, invisible, unheard: wrapped up in the folds of my heart and smoothed out with meticulous care. Someone once asked me what love was – where it begun, where it ended. I said I didn’t know. But now, I think I am a little wiser. Love is the stars in the night sky and our intertwined hands, shining like twin stars of their own. Love is the ability to hold hands and say us. Love is your smile and my eyes and we are laughing, carefree, unstoppable. Love is us, and we are alive.
@waitingforthesunrise this was inspired by u! thanks for being so awesome and writing cool poetry!

Burning Bright
Watch the carnival set up
torches would be juggled and fire eaten
Now you did it.
Old Montag wanted
To fly near the sun
And now that he's burnt his damn wings
He wonders why.

a poem about loneliness
You say you understand
But have you ever fostered loneliness
Until it grew big and moved out?
Have you ever reared it
Like your own child?
Tamed it like
Something wild?
Quiet taught me
How to love solitude
But for you it is no use.
You never wonder
What silence might introduce.

i saw god in a bathroom stall/scrawling rude words on the wall/his smile was wry/his hair was fried/dyed to death with peroxide
inspired by when i was in the bathroom at a restaurant, and the power suddenly went off. i thought something paranormal was about to happen and i also took this picture (which i edited heavily for fun)

untitled (middle school)
i remember how to get to your house, i remember the streets and the turns and the twists. i remember your bedroom, your bathroom, the feeling of your hair under my hands, your scent. i forgot, just how much you exist within me, and around me, and away from me. out of sight out of mind is a prayer i whisper while i brush my teeth. if i don’t see you, its like you moved to colorado like you promised you would. i remember your cats names, and nicknames. i forgot how you laughed. i never, ever, forgot how you loved. the way you told me you only treated me that way because you loved me, because i was your bestest friend. somewhere within me, i know i probably did the same to you. somewhere, within me, nowhere near the surface, i realize that we were like a hurricane. category five just like the one that hit last year. i still remember everything and i forgot everything and everything is within me and i can only find myself in the eye of the storm. i hope you’re fucking dead in it.
i swear im over it.

all the flowers will die
for sure with me
on the day i die,
so, atleast
keep those dead flowers
on my grave,
or near it
please at-least
let my death be
the reason
you come to me,
however,
sad for me
i can't sense you,
anymore.

Hey! You want to hang out? I noticed we haven’t been talking much.
It’s uh, been a while, you haven’t responded. Did I do something to upset you? If I did, I’m sorry. What should I change to make you feel better?
Hi again, please if I did something wrong just tell me. Or even if you don’t want to be friends anymore just let me know. I’m sorry for anything I did wrong and I’ll stop doing what we I did to upset you. Just tell me why you won’t acknowledge me? Or answer me? Or give me and explanation? Please?
I’ll stop asking now.
