burning house, no way out Stuck in bed as I call out for help no one comes, as the flame gets closer and closer to me and there is no way out, is this the end of me am I about to meet God or Satan or worse end up in purgatory
Mason like the jar was his name being a fuckboy was his game He tried to act wise beyond his 23 years But he was still wet behind his ears He thought he could deceive me and lies and lies and lies he told me told me he lived with a roommate when it was really his soul mate He wanted his ice cream and cake but I saw through his con game And right away I stopped our lust filled affair My respect I needed to firmly declare
My former lover prays for me because I won’t fuck him Is this how it feels like to change my story from on call whore to an Iβm healing and deserve better “Woman Is this how it feels like to to go from fun girl to healthy woman I use to measure my worth by who loved me or who wanted to fuck me but those days of impulsivity and “hey, this will be fun” are long gone Now are the days of painful transformations,therapy worksheets, self reflection and most importantly self love So I put away my sexy vixen persona And I put on my ” βI’m authentic without apologies personaβ Iβve stopped living to please others and now live to please myself
Iβm disappointed once again -being here with you You represent everything I thought I wanted But- You donβt compare to him You make my body sing with pleasure but donβt sweep up the mess that I am You are there to help me escape but never to rescue me SO I choose him Who chooses to be there for me When I chase death in a bathtub or a bottle Because while sex and lust feels good when itβs happening It doesnβt compare to the love and support heβs provided in keeping me alive So I say goodbye to a life Full of lust filled fantasies and accept the one and only who truly cares for me
this poem has to be one of the most unhinged things I’ve ever written
My past called to me and I made the mistake of answering it and looked for the former main characters in my life Stalked them on google and social media and most of them didnβt want to be found perhaps they did the right thing in wanting to live their lives in peace without their ghosts haunting them but two of the ones who had the great impact on me both of them are happily married one of them has a son my youngest sonβs age Iβm glad he grew out of his peter pan syndrome and the other is about to finally become a dad at 43 his lifelong dream come true after waiting for so long Iβm trying to be happy for him and with all that Iβm ready to really close that chapter On my past because while I was distracted from my grief And highly entertained by my theatrics and my shitty choices in men when I was in my twenties Its time to stop this business of reminiscing of what was and what could have been Its time to accept what is and what could be and focus on making my own lifelong dreams come true And be open to my invisible string out there somewhere waiting for me
I wrote this in January of 2022 when I was depressed.
honestly
I welcome death to take me away tonight- death must be better than the anger that has made an eternal home in me death must feel better than this emptiness that lies in my heart death has to be better than this sorrow that floods my pillow with tears continuously death would be better than my emotions that threaten to consume me
grief found me on a sunday night in the shower and cried all of the tears I had been bottling up since my uncleβs passing lately it feels like life is running through my hands and thereβs not enough time to do everything I want thereβs not enough time to make an impact, an imprint on this earth lately I feel like a footnote just existing on the edge of life, of love
my uncleβs death has awakened something in me and while I think he was mostly good and donβt judge him Iβm sad he didnβt live his life authentically Iβm sad he couldnβt bring himself to leave his loveless marriage Iβm sad he hurt his second wife by cheating on her with the first Iβm sad that for more than half a century he was deeply in love with a woman he could never have I wonder what would have happened if my uncle made it to therapy and tamed his demons I wonder if eventually he couldβve found some happiness and love in his life or perhaps Iβm wrong and he was content with the mess he was inside
under a tequila sunrise in L.A,he breaks apart once again she committed the ultimate act of treason against him and he couldnβt forgive her again this time he couldnβt put a bandaid of his love to make it all better this time he had a son to think about this time his family would disown him if he stayed with her so he packed up her stuff, put the boxes and suitcases of her belongings outside changed the locks and filed for divorce even as he broke inside, he held all of his emotions in and even though he considered her the grand love of his life he had to cut all ties with her this time she hadnβt just broken law of not just decency and morality with her actions this time her horrid actions made her beyond redemption this time she had gone too far
