::: A Litte Less :::

letters to lovers
which are never to be sent
it's a little less
a little less depressing, that way

you will never be
my starshine state of mind
so it's best
best to bury the affection, unseen

no pain to be found
in words never said
forgive this passing
this passing attraction, forget it

I just liked the
sound of your name
as I scratched it
scratched it on the page, in secret

::: Maiden Invasion :::

I almost fear the day
you may discover the truth
how would you deal with knowing
you owned my heart?

alas
I hope you never discover that secret
clever as you are
sir knight, I pray not too clever
my fancy shames your good name

invade my castle, please
you've no idea what you're doing
be not so crass
you'll soon realize I am not
the maiden princess

these walls
have been penetrated before
only the sepulchre
is still sacred and whole

but that is not yours to command
instead, lay your armies
through me and scatter me
stone by stone

::: Exotic :::

exotic?
I suppose you could say that
but it's never what I'd thought
of you

you're adorable, funny
spontaneous, unattainable

I would like nothing better
than to say
"you're wrong"
straight to your face

I'm autonomically minded
and that alone
is more than enough
to separate us

but we continue
like a new day
breaking yet beautiful
trading stars for clouds

and then a song
gets trapped in my skull
so I forget
what I mean to say

it's okay
I'm sure it'll come out
(as always)
if it's important

speaking of

it's important
that you love me
in your strange
exotic ways

it excites me joyfully
since I love you
in my own
uncommon style

wish I could make you understand
our textures
as we dance
between these lines

::: Like the Sea :::

I had thought
the sea would be like your eyes
gray-blue and calm
it wasn't

with vibrancy
and noisy energy
it proved me wrong

Preliminary packing going well. I think everything will fit.


Tied off a garbage bag today and lifted it only to find something sticky and gross beneath it... with my foot. D: Need to mop the floor.


Massive migraine. Yup. It's been one of those days.
