Had to delete that post. It was out of character.
Tumblr has taught me more about feminism, women rights, rape culture, slut shaming, etc, more than school ever had. And there is something wrong with that.
Love is my religion
And I worship at your altar.
I fall at your feet,
Kiss your holy cheeks,
I press my palms against yours wrists until our hands meet.I burn incense to smoke reality,
Melt candle wax to fight feuds with the incessant ticks of time
That seperate me from your temple;
My eyelashes play on the church organ pipes of your neck,
Heart singing hymns to
your ribcage.There is salvation in your eyes.
She chased
the soulful sound
of that voice
reverberating
in a sweet serenade,
ribboning like a silk sash
through a surreal midnight.
The hypnotic melody
was both sensual
and melancholy
like the dramatic arc
of a passionate affair.
She was moved
by the throaty contralto,
luring her further
down
the
intoxicating
path
of impulse.
I sent my thoughts
On a carnivore mission
And they returned,
A breadcrumb poet.
My stories
Lost their witnesses,
All bludgeoned,
Thrown at the hitch,
Blue capillaries burst
In plain faces.
Since then I have lain,
Impatient,
Roots growing hard
Like catastrophic…
Fold me in two
If it is what you must do
If I am too flimsy and see through
To acceptably please youFold me in three
If it is how I must be
If the world still shows through me
Treble my densityFold me in four
If I still must do more
To be more than a bore
Ignored and abhorred
I assure…
Drifting
I cast my feelings aside
As I begin a weightless journey
My past has me keeping a scrapbook
To remember times of simple practice
Playing in natural twist and curls
Stroking your curves I knew alone
I begin to float for if I remember you
I will get stuck
Your poison draws me
But I must not forget
How you forgot Love
And not missing our first kiss
I take thirty steps
Only to look back
And find no one behind me
Disappearing my last step
Tricking myself saying I won’t be found again
