if you
want a window
to gawk
into my soul
watch it strip bare
for your
voyeur
pleasure
like a
25 cent peep show
see what lurks
inside
the
core
of these
old bones
read
the ink spilling
from
torn fingertips
where
you'll find
me
at my most
naked

-

he thought he wanted a meek princess
until he met a warrior queen
willing to go to battle with him

-

i didn't come looking
for this
but much like a storm
you rolled in
all i ever wanted
and
everything i never knew
i needed.

-

i want you
so
deep inside me
i feel
our souls touch

-

love wasn't love
but
self medicating hurt
believing
its own drunken lies
trying to get held
before it fell
apart

-

they called it madness
we called it love...
maybe it was both

-

You changed
everything i knew
of love
and other
messy things

-

the memory
of our last kiss
burns
between my thighs

-

to love a poet
is to be
reconciled knowing
you will be
forever immortalized
in the stars
of their ink.

-

he didn't want to
save me from my chaos.
he jumped in and held me
while we slow danced
in it's rain.
