She lies

Because I lie

I lie

Because I am insecure

She lies

Because she no longer trusts me

I lie

Because she hurts me

She lies

Because she doesn't want me to see her pain

I lie

Because I fail to understand

She lies

Because she can no longer see the truth of me

I lost her

When I could no longer see the truth of her

Lover,
I still fear the heavy
silence of the night

Will you lull me
to a long sleep?
Boy
Let's talk
       love

under these
           duvet sheets, boy.

You'll see what I
mean.

We'll
     kiss and nibble

on each other's
needs.

        F*ck out our
             wildest fantasies
and forget the pleasantries.

I'll trace my
      nails across

your pink
lips

just as long
     as you tell me,
please.
          
                  Sweet talkin and
my sweet voice

I won't hesitate to
         make you mine, boy.

But we can be
     patient,

          and I can keep
     waiting;

for now, I'll just keep
        laying under these

duvet sheets while you
           push yourself up

against me and 

         kiss my forehead
to sleep.
mama and papa
i long for your warm embrace
but you both passed on
I miss you!

I wonder if the filed of lavender
sighs when it yearns for her scent

I wonder if the sunflowers
worship her raven hair
like the sun

I wonder if the moon weeps
with longing over her absence  

I wonder if the sky turns pink
when the spring breeze
touches her silky skin

I wonder if the cherries bleed in her
mouth like my heart when she left

She left me with a bouquet of
flowers that never bloomed,
and a muse with bleeding
verses that never rhymed

At nights when her name
is dancing on my tongue,
I hunger for the cherries
she once promised to feed me
