I wished upon a star
For a dream that felt so far
It could never be in reach
Until the atmosphere was breached.
That shooting star, it fell
My anxiety was quelled
As the stars revealed destiny
And showed that we were meant to be.

I’ll write you as I please,
A character in my story
Is all you’ll ever be
I’ll make you dance
I’ll make you sing
I’ll make you fall in love with me
When I feel I’m in over my head
I’ll cut your strings, puppet,
And set you free.
Stuck inside my mind
Behind a two-way mirror
No body
No name
Visible from the outside
Through my glassy eyes
That watch the world pass by.
Ricochet
Into my heart
Crashing fatally
Against my ribcage.
Resuscitate me. Bring me to life, but
Don’t disrupt this fantasy
Of you and me.
Darkness
Creeping through alleys
Toward unsuspecting victims
I’ll capture you
A spider with a fly
In my web of lies
I’m hungry
Looking for food
Fulfilled by lust
You look at me
Tell me you love me
Tell me you want me
And I’m satisfied.
Words taking flight
On a trip, traveling up my throat
Flitting across my tongue
And playing at the tip
Where they brush past my lips
And escape.
But what happens
When there are no words?
A different form of communication
Evolves without trying.
Your lips on mine-
The pressure, lingering, intensity
All signs that show me
What you want, need, desire.
A secret code, no-
A secret passed
From one pair of lips to another
A conversation that lasts a lifetime.
This language is our own.
As we stand in a room of puzzles
No puzzle more intricate than us
With your eyes trained on me
Searching for a reaction
But what am I supposed to do?
You always had a way
To make my knees weak with lust
You always had a way
But what am I supposed to do?
Searching for a reaction
With your eyes trained on me
No puzzle more intricate than us
As we stand in a room of puzzles.
Would you-
Follow me to the end of the Earth
Where no one else will know our names?
Listen to my every word
And hold on to it like a cherished friend?
Join me for my smallest whims
Even if they require more than they’re worth?
Hold my hand through thick and thin
And be there for me when I fall?
Trust in me and believe
I would never lead you astray.
Help me act out my hopes and dreams
And celebrate our success.
Love me like there’s no tomorrow
And hope today never ends.
But even if you would,
Would I do the same for you?
I see a girl with emerald eyes
That glisten and ensnare
The world with it’s skies
Without the slightest care,
Free from what’s soon to destroy her.
I see a girl with eyes so cool
For they’ve seen the world fall
To armies so cruel
That they’ll take it all
Away for the chance to entrap her.
I see you with your eyes cast down
A single glance and I peruse
A distinctly permanent frown
From the emotional abuse
That you let yourself go through.
Tell me that you love me
I want to hear you say the words,
but also feel them so I know it’s real
and not just my deepest desires. I want
your words to feel so heavy that they create
fire from the friction of being rubbed against
your tongue. I want your eyes to show so
much passion that they make me feel
your arms grasped tightly around
me with just one look. I want
you to make me feel like
there’s nobody else in
the world meant for
you as much as I
am. All it takes is
three heavily
weighted
words.
I love
you.
