i'm walking and all i can see is
three feet in front of me
the rest is all darkness
that looks like you

the radio plays a blues song
and i hate the way i think of you

I CAN'T WRITE POETRY BECAUSE I WANT TO KILL HIM.

i'm tired of this:
listen, let me tell you
i know you're confused
(more so than i am)
and you are a coward;
i want to hang myself
from a telephone wire outside your house
so you'll be forced to look at me
the way you don't have the bravery
to do now

*

everything you are digusts me
and what digusts me the most is how sickly
i am in love with you

harshly imperfect

i'm harshly imperfect
and i'm aware, but still,
i'd like to warn you:
i don't look pretty when i wake up,
i don't listen carefully enough,
my lips are usually chapped,
i can think too highly of myself,
my hip bones stick out when you lay me down,
and i am not the girl of your dreams.
but i love you, boy,
isn't that enough?

i treated you terribly
but i'm sorry, boy,
isn't that enough?

my love for you has waxed and waned
but it has never dissapeared
trust me,
it will never dissapear

i'm over
i'm in love
you now,
with you still
and it feels
and it hurts
like heaven
worse than ever
to have moved on
and i don't think
i'm sorry for the angry phone calls
i can live like this
but now i finally think i will
i don't think i can
survive

change your mind
10/14/2004 09:46 p.m.
your room
the papers
piled high
on the
desk where
i lean
my elbow
and smile
at you
and you
lean over
to kiss
me but
then change
your mind

my hands beg me
10/13/2004 11:51 p.m.
my hands beg me to stop
and my body cries for a bed

sitting
10/13/2004 08:47 p.m.
sitting, my legs either propped up or
folded inward so my lips
touch my knees,
we'll talk
c a s u a l l y,
g e n t l y
about our days, or,
our weekends, or,
something simpleandshortandsweet

but i'd be lying if i didn't say
that i'd kill to know your secrets;
i'd be lying if i didn't say
there's so much more of you i want;
i'd be lying if i didn't say
that i plan to make myself special to you

and i am no liar, so
know that i am patiently plotting a way for us
to truly know each other

i might hurt someone
10/06/2004 03:07 a.m.
i had this brilliant idea to
write you a letter
describing vividly how much i hate
who you've become
and seal it tightly with a
smack in the face and
a "fuck you" for making everything
harder than it had to be

*

if i could get my hands on you
i would not
kiss those lips i've dreamt of—
i would chap them with the wind of my words;
i would tear them with my teeth

if i could touch you
i would not
hold you in a sweet embrace—
i would shake and spin you dizzy and
break your balance

if i could be with you
i would not
tell you of how i cried your name—
i would scream it between punches and kicks;
i would say it to hide the tears behind the screaming

i have wasted months loving you
in a way you never deserved
and i refuse to waste another minute
on the selfish, arrogant creature you have become

*

[ not even a poem anymore. just ranting. ]

if you didn't love me you wouldn't have to waste so much time trying to prove it.

5pm
10/01/2004 09:55 p.m.
i'm the bitter taste on your tongue
with 5pm blues and the need to go home;
when you're driving, know that i'm in everything
from the click of the seatbelt to the
bumps in the road
