probably listening to the Bennington show.

he said
and I thought about it
naked in bed
open to the story
especially the part
where he would
break me
so later
I could write pain
like it was truth
and I was somehow
better for it
because I was the one
that bled.

it’s the last day
I will write
but then
the sunsets
or a dog barks
the floors creak
or he tells me
I’m beautiful
in just a tee shirt
and I’m no longer
at war with myself
or the page
the words return
poems are formed
and I forget
what I was so scared of.

the silence
is all I have
the whirl
of the ceiling fan
the creak
in the floorboards
the growl
in my stomach
reminding me
I didn’t eat enough
it’s not what’s missing
it’s just what is
nothing to fill
because
the quiet
isn’t always
empty.

As inconvenient as it may be
I want to be the catalyst
That disrupts the order of your world
And crushes your soul
Under the weight of a thousand words
Wrapped up
And disguised as poetry
For your restless heart
A perfect fit unquantified
By the dance.

And he tried his best
To quantify them
The way he did with everything
But he couldn’t solve her riddles
Or soften her heart
He thought she had a lot of nerve
Guts
Scattered everywhere
And that’s why he liked her
Half naked in his bed
A mystery.

someone will look at me
like I’m the moon
and I will be reminded
that I am more than
fragmented molecules
twisted together
dancing in space and time
skipping through start dust
on my way
to becoming whole again.

Curled up in my tiny corner
Deep within a place
Where it is always winter
Instead I let the sun touch me
And caress my crevasses
And hug my curves and creases
For a moment
The light looked upon me
With favor
Because I let it
And now it hurts
Curled up in my tiny corner
Deep within a place
Where it is always winter
Instead I let the sun touch me
And caress my crevasses
And hug my curves and creases
For a moment
The light looked upon me
With favor
Because I let it
And now it hurts
Still hear me
In the line breaks
And in the commas
And they way they curve
Like me
I hope you notice my voice
In the unfinished phrases
And inside
Of the breaths in the pauses
I hope they make you smile
And bite your lip
When the verses
Echo my name
Still hear me
In the line breaks
And in the commas
And they way they curve
Like me
I hope you notice my voice
In the unfinished phrases
And inside
Of the breaths in the pauses
I hope they make you smile
And bite your lip
When the verses
Echo my name
