Paper, Pencils, and Pens
tools of my murders,
A nice ball point is my preference,
Bloodbaths in notebooks,
Body outlines in black ink,
Homicidal verses roll off the tongue,
Cuff my wrists,
I can't bare to witness anymore,
all the tombstones at the end of these sentences,
Grave digging across the pages,
Nobody said poetry was pretty.

Tonight,
It feels calm yet perturbed
Carrying this weight of regret
Fills my heart with malevolent beats of distress
Pumping motions of prying blood
Purple tint stains as it cuts
Screaming in pain but to no avail
Help is not needed but weary the mind
'"You’ll seek what you’ll find
Beneath the shadows of imminent time.”'

Tonight,
Verged with desire
To seek the forgotten light
Above the skies and among the stars
Hidden within this immense universe
Waiting as it pours
To the ground with glinting flames
For when I will get better
I will turn all this mess
Into beautiful shades of existence
Prior to what has held to evade norms
To change what was lost
To be claimed and found.

Tonight,
To feel what is certain
Yet leading to disappointment
Crying in vain to appease regret’s misery
I believe in fate
To a whole new life’s beginning
Displeasing life to graze within its end
Without it,
It has no meaning.

Tonight,
The love we were once hurt to prevail
Learning to love and be loved again
And live in happiness until forever ends.

most people
word it as if
when you left you
took all the air
with you,
but darling
you were my oxygen
tank and my
lungs are
failing.

You lay beside me,
Your body clasped against mine,
As if we were to be separated at any moment,

You kiss me,
Your lips pressed hard against my neck,
As if it were your last chance to kiss me,

You hold me,
Your arms wrapped tight around me,
As if you were about to lose me,

You whisper into my ear,
It was so muffled that i could barely understand,
But I made out those three words which I was most afraid of hearing,

Those three words gracefully floated out of your mouth,
They sent butterflies to my stomach,
They sent shocks to my heart,
And most of all they sent words from my lips,
They sent those three words right back.
