you think that if god ever loved anyone it has never been you and it has never been him, either. but for the longest time you were sure god put the sun in his veins. and maybe if you cut him open he would bleed golden; but later it became clear that god did not put the sun in him. because when he died the sun did not fall from the sky, and the world didn’t end either (although yours may have.) but you did not see him bleed and you would have been glad not to. because it was red and red and red, and you do not ever remember seeing a sun like that. (maybe it is red for something else, maybe for his shaking hands and shaking voice, maybe for wanting him and wanting too much, maybe for something in the sky and something far away.) and you were sure that god did not put the sun in him. but maybe he put another star right there in his chest. and later, later; he tells you, not god — but him, he tells you, that maybe god put that same star in yours

i want to live inside a green moment, where you and i and our shaky hands chase out the horizon in a large forest. i want your mouth always full of laughter. i want our fingers to know each other. we are in grey. i want my heart to stop beating so loudly i can’t hear myself think. i know how often i dream of you is making you uneasy. i don’t know how to say that you make breathing better without sounding crazy. i know you need your space. i’m sorry. it’s just that i was born on a white day, all lacking, and no sun got in me. i filled myself up with empty. i was four the first time i knew i was lonely. i have raised myself through terrible things, learned only that others leave me once they’re done visiting. my chest is filled with fists and failure and nights that all blend together.   maybe if i had parents that loved each other so loudly they made sunsets in each other’s hearts. maybe if i had friends who didn’t care how blue i got. maybe if i was strong and bled out loud colors and didn’t stop. i don’t know how not to love you. you are brighter than art. you were the first thing to bring colors back to the dark.

Hello lovlies! I’ve been wanting to do another giveaway for a long time, and the New Year and reaching a pretty cool number of followers seems like as good of an excuse as any! So this giveaway is going to be pretty big, and I’m doing two of them, so here are the things you need to know:

for the "write a poem about..."-prompt you should try to do G!

G: Being six years oldAt night, the fever and the flies. The huckleberriesand honey.At night, standing barefoot in the blue yard. Tyler pointinga finger at me, yells BANG andI drop dead. Tyler says: “Youknow the house is haunted.”I climb a tree to prove I’mbrave. Punch the baby teethout of my mouth. I SAW A GHOST INTHE BASEMENT.NO, REALLY.NO, I REALLY DID. AND IT SAID BEINGDEAD WAS OKAY. JUST A LITTLE BORING.Katie shouts: “Lookwhat I found.” and shows us the dead dog in her barn.Tyler,sweat and sugar, drops a flower on its head. Says: “Thingsreally do die.” Here is proof. Katie, mud and magic, takesoff running through the grass, arms twirling, heart ripening,voice laughing: “Not us though! Not us! Not us!Not us!”

there’s no way to write this fairly but know i tried

[heyitsdevyn]

july i slam the car door / sink onto your front lawn like it will keep me grounded & grab on tight like ‘OKAY UNIVERSE YOU WANNA PLAY DIRTY NOW?’ /                                                                your fingernails, broken at the top but protecting something light & sensitive / my upturned brain, broken in most places but not dizzy enough to stop seeing my future as inherently & definitively intertwined with yours like ‘i don’t think i could ever unlove someone’ /                                                 september you sit me down / snap a stick in half like ‘SEE HOW YOU CAN NEVER GET IT TO BREAK RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE’ / december i hold the pieces like ‘BUT THEY COME FROM THE SAME TREE SEE HOW ONE HALF WILL ALWAYS MISS THE OTHER’ / august you say ‘yeah but it changes’

"I find you healing and soft,"/ i reply, when you ask if people find you intimidating. you throw a look back, mouth that mocks but broken irises that whisper,/ thank you./ a look that tapes over the cracks in my own eyes- i smile.// (pt 1)

Years pass.// I find you, healing and soft,/ on a morning so sharp and beautiful that it cracks apart my soul. we huddle and talk of the past and i ask why you never came back./ “the truth? i find you intimidating. intimidating and much too soft for a breaker like me”- i hold your translucent hands and laugh. you join in, echoing everywhere. | Luce (pt 2)

[!!!] and the tragedy has never been you, or me, or the both of us, for we are our own constellation. i can't help but think that this true tragedy lies in a world that will only look at our stars and not remember our names. // glassea

I’m losing my mind, but. In a poetic way. Very tasteful and worthy of admiration.

From the backseat, Sarah yells something like, ‘GOD IS REAL JUST MICROSCOPIC WHICH IS WHY WE CAN’T FIND HIM.’ Sarah pushes my heart around like an empty shopping cart, loose wheel, always veering off course. My new method of survival is to gather up all the dead pieces: the red dust and throbbing laugh, your knees, my bad sense of direction, sew them together to form something strange and alive again. Or close enough to alive. ‘THE THING YOU’RE AFRAID OF LOSING IS ALREADY GONE,’ said the shovel to the dirt. ‘Worse,’ said the dirt. ‘It didn’t exist in the first place.’

Rural Boys Watch The Apocalypse (rough draft) by Keaton Michael

[metvmorqhoses]

As the wolf mourns its prey, mourns its nature/ so my lover proclaims: we are made for each other/ He asks why the long face/ I imagine a muzzle,/ teeth to rip his throat out; instead I just smile/ (image: the broken body of a rabbit dragged through a puddle) | Luce [!!!]
