Once again I smell a different perfume

I smell you on her and her on you

deep down I always knew

desperately not wanting it to be true

unable to process anymore shades of blue

overtime this insanity grew

persistently, continuing to accrue

ignoring all logical clues

giving away my power in lieu

of efforts to hold onto you

when I was ready to attain something new

arose the intrinsic value

and undeniable nature of the truth

now I feel deep gratitude

for the unending strength I possess to pull through

unlike anything else I’ve ever felt

I’m finally learning to trust in myself

above all and anyone else

let this peace

wash all over me

to set me free

to become who I want to be

clockwork, a poem

hour i /

your smile, 

which shines brighter 

than a supernova.

hour ii /

the way you look at me,

like i am a newfound beauty

every time my eyes meet yours.

hour iii /

your laugh

when i say something funny,

loud and bold, unabashedly so.

hour iv /

the way you hold me

tightly, for as long as possible

before it’s too late.

hour v /

your confidence

in loving me, unselfishly,

without a second thought.

hour vi /

the way your touch lingers

on my body long after

we should have let go.

hour vii /

your intelligence,

which never fails to surprise me

in times i need it most.

hour viii /

the way you warm

my body, heart, and soul

every time you’re around.

hour ix /

your creativity,

which is charmingly brilliant in a way

i never thought of.

hour x /

the way you talk to me

in a soft and patent voice, a relief from

the loud, chaotic world.

hour xi /

your ambition

to be the best you can be, even if

you already are the best.

hour xii /

the way you love me, 

a girl who doesn’t love herself.

you dragged her from the dark.

around the clock the hour hand goes,

and with each hour, a new thought

of you. i love you.

I don’t know how to live with this paralyzing woe

utterly disillusioned, I now see my true foe

frozen in terror as this predator nears his doe

insidiously he comes, dealing assiduous blows

clinging ever tightly to his target, never letting go.

Countless labels reveal what I’ve been through

Yet not a single one can expel this rue.

Why are you still fastened to me like glue? 

From my heart, eradicate this seething, dark hue. 

I no longer wish to take on this point of view. 

I yearn to let go and be without you. 

I patiently wait for the fall of morning dew, 

and slowly release this anguish to make room for something new.

❁ Immortal Flower ❁

Abandoned on this desolate tower

I realize this may be my darkest hour.

Every piece of my soul has been devoured,

but I will not allow my life to sour.

I will stand tall, I will not cower.

I've come to reclaim all of my power

So that I may bloom - the immortal flower.
