SOS

I need extraction, NOW

I went to bed to get cozy and transfer my poetry into my notebook. My boyfriend burst in and CAUGHT ME

NOW HE WANTS TO READ THEM AND HE'S BEING WEIRD I SAID NO

Someone help, 911, anyone?

SAVE ME, I THINK I'M GOING TO DIE, I HAVE NOWHERE TO HIDE MY NOTEBOOKS NOW THAT HE KNOWS OF THEIR EXISTENCE

I might just have to bury myself in the yard with them tonight. Or do I get rid of him instead?

Either way, here's to staying up later than I'd like until he falls asleep 💀

#NO #secret #secret poetry #I am weird #real people can't ever know about this #how dare he #come into OUR room #unannounced #knock first next time #I am already dead #poets on tumblr #writing #poem #poetry #spilled ink #spilled thoughts #spilled poem #spilled writing #original writing

My back is breaking

Beneath the burden of you—

The weight of worry

I implore you, on my knees

Please, learn to live without me

Prompt: what could have been

coulda been mountains, right?

those places where the plates of the world crash and intersect

peaks and valleys and the every last one of them jagged -

coulda been a head thrown back in bliss, an EKG, a fluttering heartbeat coulda been your

eyes flitting in a morse-coded sign -

coulda been north of south, left of right,

coulda been heights grasping clouds coulda been fount,

coulda been desert

woulda loved to'v known

My Perfect Hologram (Not Meant To Be, But Thank You)

Recently hurt, lost, and afraid

I saw you standing over there

Appearing to come to my aid

Though seemingly part of a pair

“Just friends” I hoped to myself

So easy to talk and relate to

Like a rare read on a bookshelf

Perusing veins of each other’s bamboo

I though that you could be it

The other part of my cracked half

It was indeed her that you were with

But thank you, my perfect hologram

I was born from your body

Now I have borne the weight

Of your worry, the way your

Eyes assess me—

I know you've seen the way

This secret is an envelope

I've set on fire, a padlocked

Journal just out of reach

Oh, mother, may I tell you

Of the way I burn?

Will you still love me if

I lay my burdens

At your feet?

i will never be me again

an ice age ends and the great thaw begins, something like a current down your chest, either tears or sweat and this matters -

droplets dried against skin long since died, withered from bone and broken down over stone cracked under greater stone and driven into the molten core of a massive body waiting to be swallowed by the swelling of a dying sun and this matters -

something like sixty-six-thousand miles an hour,

orbits in orbits about orbits, I make promises to myself to remember, promises I forget in the face of the sheer spendor of an incalculable number of stars and this matters -

Strange how old dusty libraries and stained pages of books makes you feel alive and fresh as new.
