My body gets filled with anger running from a faucet. My anger just keeps building up, and the core temperature is rising and rising. The pressure is increasing and increasing. I'm slowly but certainly reaching my boiling point: the point on which I explode and let out all the anger, and since I'm on my own, I'll have to take it all out on myself. I'll hurt myself....Stopping that from happening is as simple as pulling the plug and letting the water drain away, but unfortunately, I've lost the drain.....

be always wakeful
of the weakness of your bones

when you buy shoes
only wear one size too small
you will still feel the blisters
but your bones will reset

your shoulder should carry
no more than twice your bodyweight
so suffering is enough
and never crippling

were you born drinking the sky
like the oceans split at your toes
when the gulls called morning?

with sleep-sunk eyes
trapped between fingers
to watch the moon bleed through

a starburst on your jawbone
cut from kissing lightning
and threading daisies through park swings

did you sleep on the soft sands
seaweed plaited through your hair
when the water called you home?

we raised you on thunderstorms
and you brought us summer rain

Even if you are miles and hours apart, our hearts are not. No matter how many times we leave each other, I want to just stay in your arms like when I just came into this beautiful world. Now look around you, this world loses it's colors... The black and white sketch got made to a beautiful chalk and watercolor canvas, only to be washed away. I want to be back to the simple joys, I want to be back with you. If nobody understands love, it's me, but I know I can never ever stop loving you. You got me here, and now I don't want to leave without you. You held my hand through everything until you left, you left me alone with the crazy lady... She left the marks on you, why would you leave me with her?... I waited so long until I hurt myself. Blood was shed, nooses were hung. I let your beautiful creation become a hideous disaster. It got torn apart, as I was waiting for a simple phone call or text that I got one a month for two years as you refused to talk to me. Why? Was I your "beautiful" creation or was I a mistake, the leftovers of something bad?... How could you leave her so helpless with nobody to fight off all the harmful things, teach her how to shoot or how to keep her boots nice and shiny. You lost one daughter, you can count on the second to stay. You may be close to your deathbed, but I know that you haven't even put the sheets down. I want you to walk me down the aisle but that aisle may never even be coming. You're a grandpa, but I want you to meet my children... I never met my grandpa's so it *****, I know. But I want you to be a part of my life forever. No matter how much I hate you, it's hate with love.

Respect, a big thing, yet it's so hard to get.

A world where
clouds rain heavy glass
onto birds that shriek
above butterflies that breathe fire
over oceans made of oil
near grass made of needles
below trees made of knifes
holding leaves that release toxins
would still be a nicer world
than one without you
