dear you,

i like you so much i want you
to snake your arm down my
throat and tug me inside out;
bend down your head to my black
eastern seagull and kiss it, find
my liver and apologise. i want you
to pluck the old snowflakes from
my stomach and watch them spill
across the pub floor.

your hands can live in my jeans
if you want. you can bite down
on my fingers.

life's for the brave, for the people
who aren't afraid to say FUCK and
drink bad beer. so i'm gonna get on
this bus! i'm gonna shave my head!
i'm gonna drink this tequila sunrise
and crane my head to the moon
like its your face in the morning.

it doesn't matter how many secrets
and sad things you put inside a
person; they'll get drunk and throw
it up anyway.

I hear
your voice
down the hall, through the window, above
all those trees, a light
it seems
& you are singing. What song
is that The words
are beautiful.

-LeRoi Jones

:iconcloudtographer:
I like =queenhrosie's comment. This is intense, in an extremely vivid way. I was drawn right in. Very stark and honest.

"...the great tragedy of the world is not that people suffer, but how much they miss when they suffer. Nothing is quite as depressing as wasted pain, agony without an ultimate meaning or purpose." ~Fulton Sheen

passion at its finest.
:iconloosenyourheart:
i love it
especially the end

i like how real this is, and how relatable.
:iconwizemanbob:
Better out than in, in so many ways. The piece is lovely.

A shame we need these experiences, but they do make us more interesting.

I only laugh ’cause it hurts to cry
I only live for spite of those who die
I’m only here because people will ask why
I only laugh ’cause I don’t want to cry ~FABWM

the last stanza is magic.
