Hello, AI

What can I do for you today?


A man with the capacity of love and respect.

One who doesn't use his words to spin me

Around and leave me with nothing but

A stick and a sack.


Can you do it for me?


Hm, that's a tricky one...

Sorry, I couldn't find one available.

How about a guy with low effort, no money

and when he takes you out he slams the door in

your face, making your nose runny?


No, AI! You w...

Plastic Dolls

What were you expecting? The doctor said in shock.


The type of love that mends a heart...

Y'know

The type of love that breaks your heart

When I fell in love I began to change myself for him

It was my choice

Not the words of his voice in my head

Doll make a choice

What choice did I have

So I split my self in half

Stored the old me away

Filled the other half with plastic so I would never

With...

My Heart

Those eyes, the deep blue ocean that I get lost in. The way your hair sits in your hat and the smile you give when you look at me. All so hypnotizing. It all makes my heart burn with a passion so fiery and bright and You, the most brilliant light that keeps all the shadows in their place. You make my heart race, every time I see your handsome face. The feel of your skin against mine and the moment...

Lemon Scented

"Woooah!" the muffled voice came from under the trach bag. I turned from the body I was wrapping up in cheap plastic, and towards it's friend. "Is this trash bag lemon scented? Good choice..." They must be getting loopy from hypoxia or something, but I feel myself blush at the compliment as I toss the corpse down the quarry and watch it bounce off the steep sloping walls while watching them. I spo...

Prisoner

I sold my soul

but not to the devil

for it is an angel

to whom I now belong


I stopped being my own

the moment she saw me

and decided it is I

that she would possess


Now that I say it aloud

perhaps she is not

as innocent

as I had assumed


She wraps around me

her wings, my shield

to protect me

from the harsh world


But also, could they be

a cage, to keep me close

so that I may never escape

her be...

Kiss

Your teeth

Although they are sharp

Although they hurt

They are a part of you


Your bite stings

But I don’t hate you

Your lips touch my skin too

I’ll imagine you’re kissing me...

Whispers in the Wind

A feather fell from skies unknown,

It danced with breeze, then dropped alone.

A silent drift, a fleeting flight,

It kissed the earth, then vanished—light.


The trees stood tall in golden hue,

Their leaves like sparks the heavens blew.

The sun forgot the time it kept,

And stars woke early while flowers slept.


A river sang to stones below,

Its song of time, both fast and slow.

The moon replied in s...

I don’t think…..

I don’t think I actually like men

My friend turned to me and said

Muse

I don’t think you like men at all


I thiugh about it for weeks before the comment

And now it constantly occupies my head

And I don’t know how to answer the question


It was scary to come out once

And this was a huge fear

Of what if I am wrong


I don’t know if i like men


I know i came out as bi

And I was confident in that labe...

Bearing Witness

Soak in my body when you are withering and be effervescent evermore, for I would give a gallon if you’d only ask for a sip.

I rame to the heavens not for redamancy, but to allow me the opulence of watching the sun stain your cheeks pink.

Even if I may only witness you, so resplendent and piquant, I will never forget our nights of balter....

I Die, I Live

I love her

I die, I live

For her soul I breathe

For her love I am lost


I shall halt the morning star to set

And if the moon its course has met

I shall burn with passion to see my love

And carve her face in heavens above


Her kiss lingers on my lonesome lip

Sleep evades me when not by her hip

No angel could compare her radiance

No musical rhyme could define her elegance


I love her

I live, I die
