[violntdelights]

i miss the lemon tartness of your words, i miss the freckles beneath your drowsy eyes, i miss the dirt under your fingernails. i miss the softness of your neck. i miss the delicacy of your kiss. but i don’t miss you.

i will not miss you / s.h.

[violntdelights]

i wonder if you look me up like i look you up, i wonder if you lay still at night and think of when our lips touched, i wonder if you pluck out memories from the most absurd details like i do, i wonder if you ever wonder about me like i do about you.

nights i spend missing what was never mine // s.h.

a. i let you ruin me because maybe i wanted to be ruined (see: destroyed, unrecognizable)

b. i wanted to know the sound of my heart struggling to beat in my chest.

c. it became routine, letting you break me (because i was too afraid to myself)

d. your hands clawed their way through but i was more than happy to split myself open for you

e. i offered you my throat and you took a bite - i thanked you: because i should because i wanted to because i loved it

you tell me: “your soul’s known mine a long time” my soul feels dirty, i dont want it

you tell me: “this is what love tastes like” as i choke on blood.

6 lies and a truth / (m.r.)

she held my hand as we walked down a road only she knew a path she probably created to lure her men in. I could never guess what was at the end, for I was one of her men – maybe the first, maybe the last – and I could never measure the stairs of my ruins. she took me in and had me moving but she never told me when to rest.

she pushed me off an abyss and didn’t even use her hands  // r.g.

[violntdelights]

there's poetry in your veins,and stardust in your eyes.words bleed from your tonguelike sunlight at the wake of dawn,  and so i look at you darling,only to realize that i'm fucked.

to watch you from afar is a privilege  //  s.h.

[violntdelights]

every inch of you is like spilled poetry, and baby, i am drowning in the words.

i hope you remember me  //  s.h.

[violntdelights]

You are the brightest star in the cosmos; and I am a black hole.

we were never meant for each other // s.h.

[THUNDER crashes, cacophonous.] I know, Zeus. I know. The world is fractured – no, shattered. Light bleeds through the cracks & I am being split straight down the middle. Like this world is being splintered. [LIGHTNING strikes. Enter RAIN, stage left.] I know, Zeus. Do you ever want to take the follicles of your hair and crack yourself open? Like a hailstorm sends Jack Frost running for the wind. Like the ocean will make you clean instead of washing you out. Do you ever want to replace your insides with star-shine? ZEUS: I create.ME: You destroy.ZEUS: I know. I know, Zeus. [THUNDER enters, stage right. LIGHTNING crashes, stage left.] I am the leftover hurricane, the sky split down the middle. I am ruination, shoved into mortal form. The SKY unhinges, CENTER STAGE. I open my mouth. I know, Zeus. ZEUS: Lightning scorches the earth.ME: You bring floods. ZEUS:The water will make you new. No, Zeus. The tide will wash us out. It won’t make us clean. [The SKY is still OPEN. I have become the THUNDERSTORM. CLOSE CURTAIN.]
