Poke At Your Own Wounds

I’m no good with waiting.

The silence. The wondering. The voices chattering. It kills me.

But I wait. For you.

heaven forgive me for my mistake

#need something to grab onto #to ground me #feeling lost #hold my hand #before i float away

Please don't remember me fondly

Remember me as the one who held your heart so softly, the one who loved you without restraint even when your love for me was a tangled mess which took years to unravel

Remember my patience and devotion as I sat at your feet, then how you crushed them under your heel

Remember me with pangs of guilt and regret when you think on your habit of assuring me I was safe with you then abandoning me once again

Don't remember me fondly, remember you killed me

Chase me Not because I am worth the chase But because I believe I am not

Chocolate is a health food. I bring her chocolate and I remain healthy.

Dolly

I am your dolly You pull me down from my shelf    when you’ve nothing better to do To manipulate and pose me To play pretend Until another toy    catches your eye Then back I go Lifeless and empty    on my shelf
