I'd forgotten I ever wrote this


Your eyes dirty
Mascara running from tears you welcomed
Making you all the more beautiful
And human
Washing your cheeks and backbone
To flooding anguish
And things I could live with
To welcome a love ripping you apart
Bisecting you from all you valued
And all your family believed in
For something you didn't know existed
Love
Smiling grin, troubled eyes, knowledge, pain
Smiling my love
My love my smile
My love

im a huge fan...and only after one poem... there are so many people walking around calling themselves poets, i think i'll refer them to your work, and then see what they think of themselves...you're truly a great writer

joy has its own justice. and dreams are languid and lawless. and everything bows to beauty, when it's fierce and when it's flawless...
