"He will never understand just how much love I had for him"

Quote

I see you in the ivy snaking up my bedroom window; living just outside my touch. Inside the jewelry box atop my dresser, a memento, a memory kept close. The warmth radiating beneath my comforter. There is so much peace, so much calm in the thought of your hands holding tight to my own.

what a simple sort of tangible love // Haley Hendrick

I'm reaching a point I can't even erase, reading the first and last paragraphs of our short story, all I can do is just put up a smile. "Don't think I'll ever be able to settle down, at least for now".

Storyline of You & I - #end

And what can be said

of the jewel covered lady?

When the deaf man appeared

And tore her scale for scale,

left her bloodied -

Dead -

She lived to give him sound

And she screamed until his soul bled

For mercy.

(inspired by Jibaro)

I dream of shame

the only constant in the ruin of my life

I dream of the hard clench of its claws on my heart softening

I dream of slender necks and elegant faces

pressed against mine

I dream of thin fingers rose tinted from heat and desire

I dream of shouting to the world

that I touched myself the way I wanted to be touched by you

if only you wanted the way I did

if only you carried this shame, too

i dream of exposing my stomach to the world

a death wish, if I thought about it too much

a desire, a fire, a hurricane

the way I felt with you

as if one day I'd stumble and the truth would fall from the tip of my tongue

as if I'd fall and feel the tip of your touch

Although there may have been many versions of me,

Most of them were lonely.

Have you ever had a dream so real you think it is a memory?

- I’m still trying to figure out if you were real or not

Your smile, damn.

Seeing you smile is like drinking sunlight.

Life isn't easy, it won't ever be. But it's better with you in it.

“your moments of stagnancy have something to teach you. you’re not stuck, not moving, or not progressing. you are simply where you need to be until you absorb and learn everything that you need to learn about this current phase.”

i'm going to start doing poetry commissions for a $3.50 minimum and $0.25 per line depending on syllables. I can write in English and Spanish and any rhyme scheme or meter requested (though it's $0.50 a line for iambic pentameter because it's difficult).

Here is some of the work I'm proud of if you think you'd be interested

I was published in @hee-blee's Heartfelt collection February 2021.

DM me to request! If you have the length + meter in mind, I would prefer being paid in advance.

#i also kind of desperate lol.#poetry #poets of tumblr #poems and quotes #poetscommunity #poems on tumblr #short poem #prose #poets on tumblr #prose poetry #it's impossible to pre calc but if you're like 30 lines w 10 syllables each #then it's $7.50 you know.#also sorry if the prices are high i don't rly have a standard for how much poems are supposed to cost + i'm not in a fiscal situation where #i can undercharge
