#anakin angst
Time can only
heal the entry wound of the
poison barb
you left inside me:
rotting love,
festering longing -
purple toxin living in my
blood.
And he saved you from
disaster and ruin,
your beautiful fire-starting boy.
The flames he lets lick your
salt-soaked remains
don’t change that.
Many times,
he saved you.
Many times.
(It only takes once for
destruction
to lay waste.)
(It only takes
forever for a
heart to break.)
Carved your name into my
cold bones
and was stunned when you showed yours:
pristine.
One word,
never uttered,
forever lingering in my mouth
and
burning eyes.
One word I wished I had the courage to say:
Stay.
I opened my arms to comfort you
and
you went for my throat with a snarl.
Monsters need love, too
(but only on their terms).
I’m so tired of this
heartache
wrapped in
barb wired love.
Darling,
you are an
axe hammer
and, I -
a sheathed blade.
Do not forget:
we are both weapons.
(I know how to cut, too.)
And I am begging:
Don’t do this to him
(Don’t do this to yourself).
His end is not just his own.
Land of two setting suns.
Drink my daydreams of
us
from my
shivering
belly button.
Let me clasp my hands around you and
hold your
venomous maw
against my womb.
Beloved betrayer.
Erstwhile naysayer.
Dearest love,
I am
devoted
to you and your
damnation.
That poison from that cracked rock -
I drank it, too.
I drank it, too.
Lick the salt from my eyes
and
kiss the copper from my lips -
embrace me one last time,
beloved.
Sup on my sorrow and
drink me dry.
I would let you
bury your dagger
of
deceit and accusations,
as long as you did it
while
you held me
one
last
time.
You cannot save a dying star
(no matter how much you love it).
Beloved boy turned to broken man,
who held his heart like glass in his hands.
Give it to me.
Give it to me and dry your eyes.
My scarred palms know this task well.
Cruelty held in my mouth,
I shape your name so
sweetly
with my lips:
absolutions.
Lonely boy turns into lonely man -
lonely boy with ever-empty hands.
Lonely boy ripped from his mother -
lonely boy who never believed love from another.
Lonely boy who was so sweet -
lonely boy, now picking blood from his teeth.
Lonely boy, let reason wake.
Lonely boy, let go of your heartbreak.
Lonely boy, you’re all I hold dear.
Lonely boy, you’re all that I fear.
Lonely boy, enshrouded with sorrow -
lonely boy, don’t leave me tomorrow.
Lonely boy, please don’t go.
Lonely boy, I love you so.
Lonely boy, please trust my love.
Lonely boy, aren’t I enough?
An open circle
of
salt and fire -
never complete.
My whole world and my
whole goddamn heart break:
beloved berserker
in my porcelain
hands.
The brightest star I orbited
fell out of the sky
and
crashed into me.
And it was the
loveliest pain
staring into your shine.
It was the loveliest pain
until
the inevitable destruction.
Sunlight and
fire.
Dewdrops and
tears.
Today is your birthday.
At first:
Joy, excitement,
love.
Then:
Bitter memories,
grief, pain, and
still
love.
Across the universe,
the tide of you sweeps in and
destroys
my sandcastle court
once again.
The pounding riptide
inevitability of
sorrow.
Today is your birthday.
Darling,
your
love and devotion
is worth more than a
collar
around your neck.
One day,
beloved,
you will learn that
love
doesn’t have to taste of
sacrifice,
longing,
and
pain.
One day,
beloved,
you will be enough.
