im so sorry-
::i dont want to pretend anymore::
-that you dont rip the delicate wings,
from the butterlies that drift;
silently screaming---
pounding compulsion through my crimson valves with constriction/
[but then again-
no one asked you
if i could want you-
now did they?]
so what rights do i have-
to silently plead for the smile in your eyes
to be derived from something i have said.
the words from one mouth-to another
to my bleeding ears-
worn from things i have let penetrate me.
{i too, wish this could be returned}
/however, i know my inner craving-
and have found what complies with my circumstance.
[celibacy][through][silence]
like FuCkInG ecstasy.
like the sweet water to my dehydration-
/i/ dont. /want/ this.
but its mine-and yours-
and i wonder;
how can i mean the world to someone;
if i dont even exist.
like a balance of concrete clouds-
on my shoulders that now carry...
more then the weight of my own world.
but the weight of your words.
>>everything seems to mean so much
when you feel like you mean so little
.stitch-lipped.
and aware of my own thoughts
i will carry my feelings from within my stomach
rather then upon my sleeve.
convulsions consist:
the butterflies are eating away at themselves-
holding themselves down with threats of their own suicide.

_I didnt know
__What could come
___As i watch it leave-
____Now in remorse--
_____Treacherous contempt.
______You must know this feeling-
_______Opening your heart to closed eyes--
________Unless, you have forgotten what its like.
"have faith in nothing, or youll believe in everything"
....sound familiar?
i wish you didnt know it so well.
