The fire is visceral
Whiskey is murky; filthy
I am tangled
I danced to all the tunes and still come out going in
And well, there is no one there in the wind
Not a one but me
I purge to accept this to be
Rebelling and a stubborn soul
The fire is low
And so I wonder how it feels
How does it stay alive
When I’m soft
Him virile
With molded melodies
Let’s make passion out of ash
Let’s pretend I didn’t say what I said
I wanna be like fire too
Don’t you?
What will linger when I’m gone
If time erases everything
Are some things meant to stay
I wanna leave an imprint
You’d try to forget me
But where will you ever find a ghost as haunting?
Stitched beneath your skin
A whisper in the bones
Hold my love when I go
Sing him tunes of eternity when I go
Heal him tightly when I go
Bless him while rising when I go
Sow him with peace when I go
Promise new lovers who dance till full
Does it exist I wouldn’t know
What feels real is felt low I am told
Hold my love when I go



A handful of names
I’m all over the place
A drop in a wave
Mad; pure madness to embrace

“You’ll always be my baby, so I’ll see you in my dreams.”
Around you I tread gently
I treat you with kid gloves
I rock you to sleep
Thinking little nothings
Riding the wave
I try to behave
My heart is your slave
She prefers it that way
There’s an unspoken rule here
As we tangle and toss my dear
I won’t speak if you don’t
You have my word
He poured some passion
Plucked me as fruit
I was healthy; a milky way
His sweet comfort
His wild girl
A bud turned bloom in his hands
She has snake locs and a snake tattoo
I never knew what to do
Cause how does one trust a shape shifter
When it takes full moons to begin to see
Just too much
Just in time, and time is precious
.
She was everything
Off spectrum
Off kilter
Fit
I got lost in her labyrinth face
I slipped on her bones
I yelled at her
.
One time I hung in her pupils
Then the light hit her
I fell in
She had me follow a safe trail to her heart
It was the biggest muscle in her entire body
I was impulsive to take pictures
.
She turned into a siren
And wooed me to rest then
It was the best sleep of my existence
.
She gave me everything
I yelled at her some more
We bit each other’s thumbs and back
I heard and listened, devoured all she passioned about
Her snakes adored me, they gave me a name
And leaned in when they smelled me
.
She smelled like woods
Woods, the incense
She let me read her books of her poems
I read the ones about me first of course
They were my least favorite
So she loves me most and longer, and longer, and longest
I never expressed how I needed her to
She wouldn’t allow it
.
She’d just paint her nails
And tell me I was the seed that planted her
I just couldn’t believe it
As an insignificant star
But she let me play with her in the sky
She let me nuzzle between her inner thighs
Then confessed how she fell
.
After every dance
After every voyage
During all the silence
.
She never wanted me to draw her
She wanted me to forget
She wanted to hang out again
She wanted to take it all back
She wanted to give it all
She wished she’d never met me
She was grateful asf
.
She wanted more, expected nothing
She was insatiable
Mad; total madness
A step ahead and two steps back
I used to help her off her rocker
Gave her dimples and a heart shaped birthmark
All of her pleasurable things
.
And she never hit me back
How fucked is that
I never heard from her again
Sent me back on Earth’s shoulders; simple
