And limerence will always choose you
It will always know what to do
Whereas these hands cannot…

I don’t want to see you
I don’t think you’d like it here
Don’t look at me if you do
Bad things happen when you get too familiar
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
I think I’d like to be a moth
But I don’t believe in reincarnation
I don’t believe my soul can just puppet a person
And never find closure
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
I don’t have to stay here pulling at my auburn tresses
Opening my mouth to scream
Only to find my mouth is gone
Replaced by the inability to do anything
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
I don’t want to be that little girl some bully made cry
Whatever they did or said, it wasn’t right
I don’t have to keep reliving every embarrassing moment
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
To just feel
To just be alive
I don’t want to comb through the past
Picking out the stuff I don’t like
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
I want to look at you and be able to look at me too
I want to look at you and know what it’s like
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
I want to live as a precarious moment
Holly berry curls
And gemstone eyes
I want to be able to sit at cliff sides
I don’t want to be anyone’s waste of time
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
Dripping all over the floorboards
And settling in so that I can’t be removed
Not even by hydrogen peroxide and lemon
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
I want hours to feel like minutes
To stop feeling ceaseless
I don’t want to be here
Guided by my pain
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
I want to chop pieces of me into tiny fragments
Just dust in the wind
My bones feeling the blow from the axe
As I hack off the worst parts of me and eat them
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
I want someone to look at me and to find me and just not know it yet
I want my anger to become a harness
While I paint my nails black
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
And I can look down and be someone else
Not tied to my inhibitions or the way you make me wanna snap
I want my blood to be mostly alcohol
To get lost in my regrets
January 14, 2026 at 5:24 AM
Inside, I’m just a metal head with a temper
Wearing eyeliner as armor
Biting my tongue until my blood and saliva mix

She’s good at slipping out of her chains whenever I leave the door unlocked…
December 16, 2025 at 4:25 AM
A misunderstood adult
December 16, 2025 at 4:25 AM
A feral teen
December 16, 2025 at 4:25 AM
A demon among demons
December 16, 2025 at 4:25 AM
One locked in her shame; the other clawing her way out
December 16, 2025 at 4:25 AM
No recovery time from the mania
You come out shellshocked

It’s a clock still set to daylight savings
It’s self-hatred and people pleasing

It’s going back in time,
To the child I once was,

And remembering the exact moment she split into two beings
December 16, 2025 at 4:25 AM
It’s swallowing it all down until it’s regurgitated

It’s every intense and uninhibited emotion and the whiplash from how hard and fast they hit you
