smooth skin

Loving you
I buy a lotion I'll wear to see you
it's alcohol based
I choose smell over saturating my skin
use it all summer
fuck a few times
in winter in fall I use sparingly
reminded of the seconds we used our senses
why do I doubt you use yours
grow ever embarrassed
that maybe you do sense me
when you see me
I hate that you see me
I shaved my legs til they were skin
there's blood on the bed
they bled on the bed
the legs I do not know your opinion on
I try to hold onto the bottle for long
longingly I lather
too long
nothing matters
it expires
I'm wasteful
I love pink plastic
labeled pure peace
to buy it again is to bring you into my life
more than two scars from shaving
done it so many times for you
you always behave the same
should I wait and save
you saved the pictures of me
putting on my lotion
you're not the person who massages me
you're not moisturizing
you smell good

you don’t miss me

  im not a bug on the concrete  you don’t miss me with your soft feat of avoiding me it’s inevitable destroying small things  we are small things  small things smaller than can be my mind grows bigger and my heart shrinks  tired of knowing concrete  and what it means  to me we are small  small things  to me we are all all things  can be bigger than me i’m not a bug  on the concrete  you don’t miss me your small thing me, poor me lonely little small thing

what do I say if not a complaint

  tired of hearing when i talk  towards you i have a block i don’t know what to say anymore  nothing matters  but i’m not depressed i just feel alone with what i own in my chest my heart hears all and it knows a lonely call there’s nothing i’m meant to do but love the sky’s truthful hues tired of hearing    when i talk because there’s nothing when i walk in my mind anymore  im confined if truths a door it locked behind me  are the things  that once were comforting converting told of love and life to achieve  that’s not me but now my mind is  spiraling an upwards progress towards nothing i have nothing   tired of hearing when i talk i have nothing to say wish things would be a different way today i know the truth tomorrow maybe so will you  so i stay and pray it’ll all be okay or at least i have changed enough of this life

let me past you please

  i sit and stare at repeated faces and glances at me i cannot compare  theres two of us is there two of us? there’s no space for i sit and stare at repeated faces  oh i can’t get past this  cast it on back still this  put a reflection  solid, you can stand on this you can stand on it and still don’t get it so i sit and stare  when i’ll meet when will i meet? a face to compare  and sit next to me let me be there  and we can just breathe  breathe the same air  but don’t take all of me out of the room all of me i still don’t get it  you don’t get me
