Maybe Icarus Had The Right Idea

Maybe Icarus had the right idea

That it's okay to burn

For temporary bliss

All I need is a kiss

Cause we're already a match

And I'm soaked to the bone

With kerosene

You are the road

Less traveled

And the girl

Less loved

But that doesn't mean

You're worthless

5 years ago

We are gilded people

Glittering with gold

Which disguises the hatred

And misery

Bubbling beneath our skin

Snowflakes fell like nimble dancers

Landing softly

Upon your freckled nose

As our laughter fogged

In crisp air

We ran

And nearly slipped

Like a foolish man

Might fall in love

During the wintertime

Mauve toned lipgloss is all I need

To feel pretty.

But I can't recall when I began to wish for such things

For the stranger's heads to turn

For the too-long glances in the grocery store aisle

For them to dream of me in a new way.

I never cared before but now-

Now their attention is the only way

I feel beautiful anymore.

When I apply it to my lips and blend them with a POP!

I still don't know if I look beautiful for them

Or for me.

I dreamt of a candle in pale hands

With a crimson flame burning down down down

Wax dripping on soft skin

Too gentle for it's heat

But there was no flinch or falter

Until it melted down to nothing

Leaving only a curl of smoke and scalded flesh

As its legacy

these words are my burden

my suffering

my tears

these words are my heartbreak

and the pain of all my years

these poems are my hardships

my brokeness

my pain

these poems are what I write

to make it go away

Thoughts on Love #15

Why do I love you? I ask myself that everyday. Through all the hurt, all the pain, through every broken heart I still love you. 

You hate the way I look at you, but the truth is that I don't know any other way to see you than as perfect. Then it occured to me- I love you so I can show you how much you are worth.

And in that moment

I finally understood

What it meant to feel

Breathless


Tags

You defy all meaning

All logic

All truth

You are like a blizzard

In the desert

Or an earthquake

In the sky

Impossible,

Yet happening

Right before my eyes
