The hardest thing is saying goodbye to the most toxic thing in your life.

he twirls my legs
between his fingers
i question anxiety
a shaken personality
he words his fears
and throws them at me
a broken being
my heart feels unease
i rock with a sadness
finding rocks where love lies
beating with hesitation
i stand at my walls
looking out but bowing
before saying hello
i wade in a daze
tears where they sang
i swallow my gut
the coldness hurts
the ice beneath his nails
leaves scars upon my back
it hurts to breathe, i said
i’ll always love you, he said
we extend with an essence
scaring our knees
stepping on toes
a blood bath we never thought
could streamoctober 2, 2016
words by dominic riccitello -
these words
spill from my neck
twisting things
i could’ve said
i tune with a drink
two fisting
a lime and please
loving you
in ways
i thought were truly
unreal
we turn with pages
creating novels
words
deep breaths
i sigh with hatred
for a loveless reality
your world where
actuality
was pure idiocracyreality
words by dominic riccitello -
I find inspiration in people, situations, conversations, general life experience, and ways things could’ve been. If you write from truth, it works. If you don’t, it won’t.

It wasn’t worth it, but at the time it was. And that’s all that mattered.

i slumber to a beat
the heart i felt
a touch with ease
the incense of my brain
his hands i felt
the warmth i held
i sway with the moon
a dawn kiss
which went too soon
he slips his hands
which caress my back
the touch of my spine
i transcend to a place
of otherworldly
holding on to things
i thought were lovely
an abusive mind
dark lies
hard cries
a hateful lifehard lies
words by dominic riccitello -
You can’t patch cracks on a glass house.
-
sliding my body
i touch the veins
across his arms
feeling a way
i’ve yet to feel before
i yearn his eyes
stroking his heart
the smooth of his being
happiness plays forth
i swing his lovely
twirling with his body
the street lights glimmer
hands to hips
a dark kiss
shadows hiss
i hear the lies
the edge of loneliness
it creeps with hatred
i loved the vacant
feeling of his touchvacant touch
words by dominic riccitello -
The problem was I always took the blame. But he was wrong. But I thought me taking the blame could fix it.

Your worth is what you allow it to be.
