ignorance

i was warned
that ignorance
was like a
green snake.
though my garden
was kept tidy
for years before,
i was left with
bites and
broken soil
because of ignorance.
i was stuck with
watering eyes
and lumps of pain
too deep
in my throat
for me
to ever swallow it down.

waiting for you

touch me.
leave me with
burning fires
and broken freezer doors.
im stuck in the cold
waiting for you.
your words have me
waiting for you.
i cant let go of the
web you have
left inside of my mind.
am i always going
to be waiting?

you can love me
again,
(and again)
(and again.)
but your words
will not compare
to loving myself.
how will you love me,
like i do?

what you give, you can use

continue to
water your
soul
with the love
you give others
from your fingertips.
long lasting,
self sustaining.

afterwards

feeling like
fresh
rain
after
a hot summer.
sticky
and soothing.
your breath
like leaves
on my neck.

establishment

i am blossoming,
beautifully,
and softly.
i am steady.

SUNday

i picked the
sun up in all
its glory.
gold melting
from my hands...
igniting light that
exists within me.

ivy

i don't really remember you
like i used to.
you were such a heavy love
to carry on my mind,
it showed through my face,
i couldn't get a decent night
of rest
because of you.
you were a part of me
taking over like
vines on
a
home,
leaving it
looking worn down
and unkempt.
leaving me
looking worn down
and unkempt.
even my memories
wanted to let go of you.
