    The intention isn’t to write sad poetry. It’s about experiencing something so beautiful that you’re capable of twisting words into perfect grooves.

    their heart was a vulture
    scouring the surface
    holding a position of love and devotion
    but they got what they gave and gave what they took
    the revenge that seeks will only name

    a professional lonely with a heart of honey
    embracing every part and through the dark
    it takes the hunger, rapture and torture
    within, it knows, it basks and grows
    but slows with a nauseous awake

    a somber world it lives
    the chills, the night and always at fright
    it fractures with affection, only knows rejection
    the karma, the fate
    for all those hearts they used to break

    the sum of a person’s actions in this and previous states of existence

    I am translucent, not transparent.

    I would sit there, wrapped in covers, watching you watch yourself and as I sat, I thought it must be lonely in there. In your mind, behind all those screens and filters. The way you had this empty stare and how I could feel all the sadness in the air.

    It was beautiful because I could feel your vulnerability with fingertips. I could caress every part of you and we just existed, peacefully, between each other.

    all of you

    You were a little bit of everything: mad, pensive, creative, handsome, delusional, electric, sad and just a person I treasured spending time with.

    the measurable amount of a property, such as force, brightness, or a magnetic field

    was cold as december
    yet hot like the underworld
    felt the world beneath me
    saw trees bend with intensity

    a force that brought cracks
    with lights upon black
    grasping the lantern
    searching for after

    the flowers tug, break
    withhold love
    like the words you write of

    the fear and might
    i was your light, as you were my power
    the strength that kept
    before all that was swept
    and the luminescence that faded
    with our magnetic heaven

    Fall in love with who they are instead of who they aren’t.

    It was intricate.
    We were intricate.

    He had the paint and picture, yet didn’t understand the correlation between the two.

    devil’s eyes

    blazing, yet sad
    beautiful and mysterious
    a touch of fiery sensation
    with hands of solid coal

    the temperature surged as he taught
    coals glimmered as our hands slipped
    enchantment intertwined with a life full of sin
    a kiss so heavy and handsome

    the gleam and light
    yet his eyes brought midnight
    as mine sung a song of innocence
    we were impetuous, our moment was as it was
    just him and i, nothing else
    but us as we and who we were
