dead butterflies

how long will it take? 

to become whole again. 

for the pain to fade. 

for a heart to heal. 

how long will it take? 

before all hoping ends.

that we could still be.

how long will it take?

for butterflies to die

I Know

I know, I know, I know

That after my cravings have passed 

That after your sweet divine kisses have faded

That after I no longer ache for you 

Every single minute of every single day

That after I have no more words to write

After all this is past

I won’t want you 

Anymore

shut.it.down

while you are still alive

while you still breath and live and smile

i crave you 

it is over

shut it down.

Aching Thirst

I’ll crawl on my knees to get relief

A drop of water to relieve my aching thirst 

I’ll walk, I’ll run, I will swim 

I will meet you where you are 

A touch of your flesh

Is what I need

Wasted Love

My love was wasted 

With our first kiss

My love was wasted 

With the very next

My love was wasted 

Through all my tears

Through all your smiles

And all your charms

My love was wasted

Spent at your feet 

You walked over it all –

A wasted love 

Red Eyes

Digging deep 

To find my strength 

But all I find 

Is a bucket of tears

Threatening floods

Red eyes no resistance –

Fragile

The Last Time

Was so beautiful and soft and tender and magical and sensual, followed by the deafening silence after and I don’t care about the ghosting, I want one more magical moment, it is a pain tearing through my flesh.
