Live for, die for

Love once saw himself
in a mirror
and was trapped
by the void
of his own being,
he was all heart
and no head.
It was
an image of himself
that he would
never forget
and ever since that day
you can find him
on dance floors
between partners,
he is the perspiration
on the palms
of two lovers,
the frame
holding the

A bullet, a bomb, a boy

You were a brief irrationality.
Nothing more than a cheap
and poorly thought-out romance.
I was the gullible one
treading unsafe waters
while the tides were controlled
by a deceitful man.

It was a Saturday.
You left me alone
in a dark and dingy place.
That is when I realized
I am simply not beautiful enough
to be loved by someone
with such an ugly heart.
I have never been more masochistic
for a man.
Begging like a little girl with a handful of plucked petals
to be loved.
He loves me.

Sixteen Ways to Never Fall In Love

1. Do not read this.

2. Make sure there is only enough room in your pockets
for one night stands
and the receipt for the breakfast
you will eat alone the next morning.

3. Constantly live in the wrong time
because romance
and the watch that ticks on your wrist
never quite seem to line up.

4. Repeat 'I like being alone. It's freeing'
but never learn the feeling
of just how free you can be
when you touch someone
who looks like the dreams you had before you knew
how cruel the world was.

5. Say that you have seen love fall apart

This Is Being Nineteen

Four years ago
I found happiness
in a black and white photograph
with dust collected
and colourful tears stained on the back,
crinkled beneath
an old book I love.
But that was the last time
I ever saw it.

I am most hopeful during summertime.
That is when my heart burns brightest,
but the cold always rushes in
and dims my light again.
This is the fourth winter
that I will gracefully go insane.
But trust me,
the best people do.

This year I met death

The axis life and love rest on

Early February
I was grabbed by the heart
by a hand that has left an unassuming mark
dragged me into his world
so eager that I ran and led the way
only to fall to the ground
and now here I lay
looking up at the stars
constellations showing all that we are
you're looking at Pegasus
and I can't take my eyes off of Cepheus
but I am blindly hoping
that eventually they'll align
And the Greek God's will cry
because their remains are what will
make our world shine
Sometimes I see you as a tornado
of chaotic beauty
spun with excitement and bravery
I see you in puddles with rippled reflections
