who feels with the mind

with a thirst for knowledge
her eye on pleasure
starved for romance
and desperate for depth

you never stop reading

your passion is your work
and you work with passion

you don't stop reading
but the void doesn't fill

but the day will come
for worse or better
that you find me

like a book long forgotten

riddled with dust that
covers the complexities
but familiar to the touch

my soul, my words bare
yearning for the feeling
of your fingers on the pages

heart in the abstract

waiting to be the warmth
that holds you
the voice that quiets the others

waiting to be dissected
and understood

i wait to be with you

she would
crawl in bed
and tell me 
she loved me

but her eyes
were cold
and closed
like the
broken fluorescent
that gave off
blue sparks

she reminded
me of an
abandoned church

what used to be
a place
where so much
happiness and
depression
was tied together
by faith and
hope was
now a
simple reminder
of how even
the place of
seemingly
unfaltering hope
dies 

she was
a false dichotomy
of existence

always present
infinitely absent

and i could
see her
try her
hardest to
make me
feel like
she was
still alive
and trying 

but every 
word she said
was her own
eulogy

It hurts to see.

Stings to breathe.

What has this world done to me?

he kidnapped my heart
like it was a scared little child
but soon returned it without ransom,
battered and bruised,
with a tone of disgust in his voice
and a distant look on his face.
I guess his greedy mind
got very bored,
very fast
with my broken little heart in his hands.
