Just Because We Can't Be Together, Doesn't Mean I Won't Love You.

“I have no enemies, but my friends don’t like me.”

— Philip Larkin

In my persona

Cracks

Through these

My lungs breath

I don't think you selfish for leaving me when I needed you

I don't think you're selfish for trying to preserve your sanity

You must really like broken things I concluded

Why break me

Your arms, anyone's arms

Can they mend porcelain

Can they mend me

To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself

These I have loved

A great tall girl, full of blue

Inviting lips, sweet to the eye but never tasted

Glasses that were black but now are pink

A voice of the ocean, Like waves hitting the breakwater

Of hair so perfect, Aphrodite should blush

A figure akin to the sun setting on the horizon

A connection so deep, the ocean has nothing on it

The future that lights up my nighttime

A conversation of Apple's and taste

Two people so together- hot and cold water

The sound of soothing poetry

A great tall girl

Yes,

These I have loved

"I killed a plant once because I gave it too much water. Lord, I worry that love is violence."

-José Olivarez

Garden Snake

There is a snake that dwells in my backyard

who finds it deeply soothing to spread himself

across a flat rock in the afternoon sunshine

until I stomp along and disturb his slumber,

sending him slithering, S-like, forwards and

sideways at the same time in total silence

sending him into the deep green of the lilies,

into the shadows, slipping in close to the soil

where those things hide that wish not to be seen

and I sense the shame of having scared away

a denizen of the sun, of stone, and replaced it

with the shy emptiness of where he used to be.
