i kissed a boy yesterday.
his lips tasted like freshly turned dirt and wilting rose petals, and his fingers felt like coffin nails in my hair. his blue eyes stared attentively at my face while i traced my fingers over his cut-along-the-dotted-line veins, and he murmured his philosophies of a true world into my ear.
he said there was a beautiful world behind this one, but it was like there was dirty gauze stretched across our eyes, preventing us from seeing it. then he told me about the land of the dead, that filled the same spaces and forms as this world, but was completely different. i asked him which one he prefered, but he only smiled at me.
he told me about this great old tree that grew outside the window at his childhood home. he said it had great, thick branches, almost perfectly perpendicular to the trunk. he said his grandfather had hung himself there. i asked him why, and his eyes stared off into a place that wasn't there as he replied "he was an old man at thirty two, and died long before he hung himself."
this boy with wilting rose petal lips was the saddest, most empty person i'd ever met, even more empty than i. he asked me to pray for him, and i told him i didn't believe in god. he smiled, faintly, and asked me what was going to happen to him, then, if there wasn't.
i kissed a boy yesterday. i think he was dead.

living you
[monday]
i spent all night bending my fingernails
back, and ripping them off, and painting
whats left the summer sky colour of your
eyes. just in case i happen to lose you, and
give in to myself.
[tuesday]
i spent all day regulating my breathing,
wondering if it was perfectly synchronized with yours.
then i realized that you wouldnt be familiar with the
concept of hysteria.
[wednesday]
i spent all hours of daylight outside under
the sun, with no protection from the heat, trying to remember
what you told me about the symptoms of heatstroke. if i hallucinate,
will i get to see you again?

they both

i keep remembering
our naked mornings
and our naked nights.
we were the
sound of the ocean.
wed smoke
poison
and watch
our liquid sex squirm.

lets bleed
all over the carpet,
were knee-deep
in secrets.
i miss
your voice
when you still sang
and when my heart
wasnt your
pincushion.
yes,
i use to think
you were from a city
made of stars,
now you sit in the
dark waiting to be
reborn.
at least i
still have your
picture
to smile at.

her skin bruises like storm clouds, cuts like lightning
and her skeleton aches for different reasons every day.
the blood on her knees matches the blush on her cheeks
and she thinks she's in love.
she starts to think she feels butterflies, but different
they're moths, attacking and decaying her insides
her liver is shutting down and she can't eat anymore
but the heart beat barely hurts
she looks into his pretty brown eyes and they're so
sad, so fucking sad she just wants to hold his fragile
face between her fingers but he's sand, he's water vapor
she blinks and he's barely there
he has scars like her, though his are less casu
