#achillean poem

[gay-poet-from-hell]

A braver man than me would say

“I am in love with you

I am in love with you and i want you to stay

I hope you love me too.”

A braver man than me would say

“It’s okay if you don’t love me

I would never force you to stay

Your happiness is all I want to see.”

A braver man than me would say

“I am terrified of being hurt

I am terrified of the happiness along the way

Because I could be left desert.”

A braver man than me would say

“I am happy and i am sad

And I am scared and I am excited and… okay

I’m ready for the ride, even if it ends bad.”

A braver man than me would say

“Whatever happens, we’ll be okay.”

"Queer boys taught me how to love."

Made some prints inspired by my poem My Kind of Boy.

it is as if the stars want us to be together. it is as if the stars never want us to part. it is as if the stars dance their strange dance to move the cosmos in our favor. is it as if the stars are calling down.

"You have done well. Persevere. The stars alone will light your path. Sleep well, child. We shall watch over you, as we have always done."

What Makes A Man.

an original poem by William Thornton.

Scarred tissue stretched over begging bones,

Fatty deposits in places they shouldn’t be.

My chest isn’t what makes me a man.

Neither is whatever’s between my legs.

What makes me a man is my heart. My mind and my soul.

If you think my soul is wrong for being trapped in this mortal vessel, then maybe I’m not the issue here.

Legs wishing to reform,

A chest that just won’t shrink.

That’s what makes me a woman, right?

What makes you think I’m no man?

Is it my voice? My hair, my skin, my arms, my legs?

It’s all of that and more.

Everything about my body screams “WRONG!”

But you just see what you want to, right?

A pelvis trying to rip through the genitals of this cage.

Sex that won’t happen.

Children I can’t have.

Is it too much to ask?

I want to enjoy my body.

I want to treat it well.

But this one isn’t mine.

It’ll never really be mine.

Where is my firm, warm chest?

Where are the children for me to give?

Where do I exchange this body for my own?

How can I live in someone else’s body?

I don’t know if I can.

youre like a potato that is, of course, to say i love you i crave you constantly nothing makes me feel as satisfied and if you asked me to marry you tomorrow the answer would probably be yes. "but thats a potato?" i dont think i care. nothing compares to the way they make me feel. safe and warm and happy again and again without fail. dependable. i really love potatos. and you, of course.

i love boys

i love boys and the way their shirts lift up when they stretch

i love boys and the way their laugh roars through a room

i love boys and the way they smile

i love boys and their stupid jokes

i love boys and the way their hair falls perfectly

i love boys and their excitement

i love boys but most importantly i love him

When The Moon Leaves

You are the moon that I will never reach for I am just the tide I can only yearn for you, pulled by your gravity But the cloud veiled you and the dark embraces me instead, cooing me, soothing me away from thoughts of you

You held me

Keeping me safe

Until my safety meant too much

Until I was too much

Until I was no longer shiny and new

And I was so mad at you

I loved you

Like I’ve never loved anyone before

With my full heart

And ever bit of my soul

rate my poem

strawberry blonde locks intertwine salt and pepper streaks

big bang theory marathons that go on for weeks,

olive green sweaters and alpha wolf tees

having picnics on his hill house in the warm summer breeze

typewriters clacking writing flawless sweet notes

watching horrible histories after taking off green camo coats

sneaking tender glances mid re

coming out and finally feeling free

@scrvwnycherub publicly shaming you for writing love poetry about my teachers

[stupidkupi]

you cooked for me once, in the time that we were together. pasta. vegetarian. i leaned against your doorway, not yet comfortable in any place that belonged to you, and said how touched i was that you'd listened to my nervous babble on our first date. no meat, but dairy is fine. it felt like the kindest thing anyone had ever done for me mixing handmade pesto in a white bowl. clearing away a stack of unopened mail from a stool so i could sit and watch the steam rise. in retrospect i can see that you gave me very little and i tried to build an entire future with it. you must understand, i had never been remembered like that, before. with purpose. without begging for it. i took what i was offered and ran.

If You are Achilles

I shall be your Patroclus

And if I am Hyacinthus

Will you be my Phoebus.

All great loves are a tragedy

But I want ours to be a comedy.

You and I as different as we may be

In the end all I want is us to be happy.

[honeyandbloodpoetry]

Kissing a man like you,

Is like kissing grief on the lips.

A pool of water lilies wilted by the sun,

The break of a new dawn over a bloody battlefield.

.

How can I forget?

How can I forget

When your eyes are swimming in sorrow?

How can I forgive?

How can I forgive

When that tragedy will drown me too?

.

Grief,

Sweet despair...

Let me hold you

And try.

The freesia stalks are cropping now

I wish I could show you their struggle,

Pushing through blades of grass only to be mowed down once more

You would like the freesias, I think, if they got the chance to bloom

So for now, just imagine with me
