there is no silencing my mind
no way to barricade the chatter
the nonexistent buffer dissipates at night
crashing thoughts fall on the rocks that are my dreams
nightmares will soon take me
i will deal with the deafening crescendo of noise
until that release

i wander through the sunlight
knowing that my sun fell for a black hole
wondering if they were nothing but a daydream
a nightmare crafted by a lonely mind
shooting stars leave broken heart trails
knowing i was the first of few is no more comforting

after telling me i was the only thing that could light up their night sky
they claimed that they couldn’t love me
reminded them of a lost love
falling for a star that can’t see the beauty in the dark
freckles looked too much like stardust
playing connect the dots got boring to them
our cyclical love got boring to them
day and moon lullabies rocked me into a lying safety

i will never be disenchanted with you
please don't fall in love with another
my love for you is never ending
it is intoxicating to be loved by you
addicting to be in love with you
enchanting to be around you

the sun looks dull in the wake of your radiance
not one for cliches
never one for love at first sight
you are the exception
years leak by
blurred days of only feeling love

i hear these poems far away
whispers in another room
ghosts in the rain
they shimmer in and out of my mind
i capture them on the page before they pass
shout them in the dark until the ink flows freely
lights in the night sky as my only guides
my only companions
as i travel through my mind
i never know the destination
maybe i've always been this way
or maybe this was learned

you kneed the dough of my body into something you can love
i know this will never work
all that i have and all that i am will never be enough
you will never want me for all i could possibly be
i will never say this to you
shouting into the void
as my body is consumed
again
another love too true to ever be good

the sky is on fire
long gone are the days of lilac clouds
distant memories of days of chasing lavender sunsets
smoke chokes my lungs
in this field that was once filled with so much love
everything must evolve
change is the most painful lesson to learn
but the most useful
i'll throw that back at you as you watch me leave
a mirror of a scene played out here so many years ago

growing up is a funny thing
i no longer recognize the person in the mirror
i blinked and my best friend went from a crush to my lover
where did the time go
it’s all slipping away

waiting for this to pass
this race in my head
i always loose
constantly running circles around myself
watching my life pass

i’m so in love with you
you are as radiant as the day i fell in love with you
nothing could ever change that
you make my life worth while
i love for my future with you

make me feel the spark
please tell me i'm your galaxy
hold me up
tell me i'm your world
i promise to be worth your time
you'll get bored with me
i'll try to prevent it

love me
tell me what you want
i'll mold myself into who you want
rebuild this ruble
teach me to be the lover you want
want me
i'll shape this mouth to only know your name
lie and say i'm special
i'll shift my life to spot light you
need me
i'll imagine what our life could be
kids, cherry trees, and gardens
creating places at future tables
you have no fire in your bones
no implanted memories of what could be
there is not spotlight for me
you do not love me
you do not want me
you do not need me
not the way i feel about you

you brought me into this world but you will not be the reason i leave
the title "mother" can be given to another
you promised to love me but only you knew the conditions
the farmer knows the possible end for the sapling when they plant the tree
you nurtured me hoping it would override my nature
dreamed to drain the ability to love others

are you satisfied with your life?
with our life?
with me?
with this ease?
itching at my skin
begging to escape this cage
i didn't choose this
please choose me everyday
you are the sun
let me exist in your orbit for another day
get me out of here
i can't keep lying
i need more
you do not know how hard life can be
there is no world outside the given one
be happy it's all so easy
i'll never be satisfied with this life
with our life
this is not a life

i write in circles
calculate and trace my spiral 
slowly going down
slowly coming undone 
pulling myself apart at the seams 
yanking at threads to make myself more appealing

you are my moon and sun and all of my stars
i want to give you the galaxy
you deserve a solar system of worlds
i wish i could collect all the stars
pluck them from the night sky for you
i’d collect stardust in bottles for you 
all for you my little stella cadente
