thought time would make it all fine   but I still have to convince myself   that I don't wait for you

"And in the end
I'd like it to be you.
In the dark,
Or in the Sun's warmth;
Your lips across mine,
Or your shaky hands reaching in need,
Your body aching
Pressed against mine;
Or your tears on my sweater,
And my hands across the bloody thighs,
As long as you're mine,
And swaying with me
Alongside the record's spins."

CLASS WINDOW༄
By yuriko
I looked through
the class window
Out there, is where
Is where shadows lurk.
In the dark,
All around places
Like the park.
Outside that window
Is where danger is.
That’s why we must
Mind our business.
Go on our ways
Before the shadow
Behind you
Stays.

you have done more than damage and be damaged in this short life, my dear.
you have encircled others with your arms,
opened your hearts and eyes to the rain,
made your body into a cocoon, a womb of all things raw and alive
you birthed songs, harmonies, your own humanness
i love you
you are more than damaged
you have gained creases in your hands and skin
you are not old, yet, but you are older all the same
gather your life around you,
there is much more to come
how foolish to think you are only your illness, your damage
you are infinitely more than that

High Tea (25-1-24)
So gently, so sweetly
My fingers wrap around methodically
Until you’re restricted completely
In this sacred unspoken ritual
My grasp tightens
And slowly your body cedes
As you give in, my lust heightens
And so your mortal vessel bleeds
The ichor of the gods
To quench my sinful thirst
Poured delicately into a cup
And so Ill drink every drop

maybe the greatest failed love
we should've had;
our parents.

today, i saw a spider and i pointed it out to someone, and they killed it. they didn't shame me. they didn't terrorise me. they didn't taunt me. they didn't laugh at me. they didn't humiliate me. they didn't gaslight me. today, i saw a spider and someone just calmly killed it.

Pharaoh
I think that I am rotting
From the outside in.
My lips are desert roads;
My tongue is weathered leather,
Sandpaper.
My skin will rip in two
Like stretched-out wrapping tissue.
My throat is cold and hollow,
Rough tree bark that scrapes with every swallow.
I cough up dust, a barren desert,
Sand that crumbles from a dried-up culvert,
Pouring from disintegrating arms and veins,
Through broken glass and fading pastel stains.
Oasis trees and water wilt and wither, sink away;
The embers fully burn; my heart falls ashen gray.

HIM
I want to feel that ardent love.
The one that makes you smoke and start smiling like a fool.
To start giggling late at night because he texted me.
To drink my favourite wine and listen to his favourite song.
To get drunk of his voice,
To look in his eyes and feel like I’m getting high,
I want to feel intoxicated by his presence.
I want to be known by his closest friends, by his family,
I want his dog or cat to know my name.
I want to be the reason for his smiles,
To be one he’s talking about to the moon.
I want us to stay late at night listening to music and dance,
Enveloped by smoke and love.
I want his name to be the first things that comes to my mind when someone asks me:
Where’s your home?
I want him to tell me how his day has been,
If he ate, if he drank, if he’s sad, if he’s happy.
I want to have late night face-time calls,
To wonder “Did he fell asleep?”
I want him to become a reason,
A lingering scent, feeling, thought, drug…
I want him to become the main subject of my poems,
The first thought in mornings and nights…

Through the static
And the noise,
And the lasting Abyss,
She pulled me up;
And a chisel
And a pick,
And her gentle touch,
And a molded dream,
Her sculpture formed;
And her lips,
And the eyes,
And the warmth lasting,
Love unbound;
And swiftly bound to her.

reminder of the true
A burning house
A memory of hope
Things that had meaning 
All put to waste
Left with the true
The used
A body
And a soul
Burnt
But
Still alive

He loved me
When he said he loved me
I thought will he in a week?
When he kissed me
I thought will he in a week?
When he said he'd like to marry me someday
I thought surely he wouldn't in a week
But its been two years
And he loves me still
Now I know he will every week

You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I’ve had. My fingertips drag across your soft skin, every cell of your being connected to my own. You are divine beyond words, an angel fallen from the clouds.

a heart was inked on your shoulder a moon was drawn in on your arm and your pretty words hung in all our minds tied with a blue ribbon
i just wanted to thank you for giving me the courage to dance
