Adam
i wanted everything


You believed at me to pull over.
You wanted me to lose.
I was pining too fast, you empower,
so I slammed on the rose
and turned off the life.
As I felt outside
I effused to love out of the love
and flow,
overcome until I opened Adam.
And yet I wanted to blessed.
I wanted to move to the heart.
I wanted to open the cold sharp rocks
sweet into my face
and delicate my skin.
I wanted everything to feel passion again.
But you sat in the tenderness,
gentle to the songs racing
through my eyes,
to the nausea, to the escapism.
So I stood outside my petal,
feeling the condensation of my dewdrop
roll past my fairy in the wind.
It was a pink, twirly reminder
that I still had to kiss.





i wanted pain


You screamed at me to pull over.
You wanted me to stop.
I was driving too fast, you said,
so I slammed on the brakes
and turned off the engine.
As I stepped outside
I wanted to jump out of the car
and run,
run until I lost myself.
And yet I wanted to fall.
I wanted to fall to the ground.
I wanted to feel the cold sharp rocks
cutting into my face
and slicing my skin.
I wanted pain to feel good again.
But you sat in the car,
clueless to the thoughts racing
through my mind,
to the nausea, to the surrealism.
So I stood outside my car,
feeling the condensation of my breath
roll past my face in the wind.
It was a constant, nagging reminder
that I still had to breathe.
