Ghost
 Feb 2015 Dust Bowl
Rebecca
Constantly blasting my music in hopes of losing my hearing
so maybe then I'll stop hearing the ghost of your voice
please tell your ghost to stop following me
and whispering in my ears
that i was not good enough
please tell your ghost to stop following me
and calling me sweetheart
and putting his hands all over me
please tell your ghost to stop following me
and watching me while i cry
about how i miss you
please tell your ghost to stop following me
and laying in bed with me
keeping me from closing my eyes
please tell your ghost to stop following me
if i can't have you
then i don't want your
ghost

Glass is seeping through my fingers
stealing a free ride on ice cold blood
these window panes are asking for forgiveness
while your front door is seeking revenge.

You cannot walk quick enough into the abyss of the night
before it swallows you whole
roaring back with a rigid teethed grin
and a kind stab to the back.

It is cold as hell
if your heart were to freeze hell over
I am dying slowly
thank you for loving me at least once
at least when both our lips were lost
and our hearts swollen with patches of frigid deep blue
the same way it seemed
every time we kissed
you'd leave sweet frostbite

You are frozen solid
yet somehow the only way I can keep warm.
I trace memories the way I used to trace your lips
I hold pillows tight to my chest at night
The way I still haven't gotten to hold you
I whisper fragments of poems to myself
The way I used to whisper them in your ear
I still do all the same things I used to do
Hoping it will be enough
Until you come home again
Say my name and move your hand and i cringe
because a few other's hands weren't as friendly
maybe just a few too many
please don't get mad when i flinch
we both know it's not my fault
that whenever someone gets in my way i halt in my tracks
because i can't backtrack quite right
my memory has blank spots
like i never thought
i never thought that anyone would like me
But sweetie you've proven i'm worthy of maybe a little bit of affection
i can't remember huge chunks of my life
it's like a knife running through my memory
cutting specific chunks away
i could never forget you day to day
maybe over a month
don't worry i'm just kidding
i couldn't forget someone who's so good to me

I may have developed a little bit of an obsession
every time that you're gone there's misplaced affection
you said it was an open relationship
why does everything else feel so wrong?
if we were talking love
you have made it to the championships
This is a poem not a song
i can't think of a line to rhyme with love
i swear i'm not adorable

That reminds me i have to sing you all of those sappy songs
because it makes me feel better
i can't be too loud
or i might get into trouble
but i really doubt you would tell me to stop it forever
even if i think i sound terrible
you think it's at least bearable
considering you tolerate it so

even when i'm feeling so low
you're consistently patient with me annoyingly telling you to **** me
you're the only one i trust with the task sweetie
i swear there is nowhere better to go
than closer to you
there's nothing i'd rather do
except maybe eat a burrito
That may have just ruined it?

Apparently i'm you
and you're me
that's not all we can be
Love you, Alex
Siiighh genderbent me
is this what a soulmate is?
