Polish my pearl
Deep sea diver
Wet your whistle
Whilst whetting
Synced appetites
Gild the lily
Plucking petals prettily
I’ve taken a shine to you
Making me feel all shimmery
Aglow with the flow
From you to me seamlessly
You see, eye to eye
Mind to mind we connect
My heart thumps faster
At the mere thought of you
My body can’t help but react…
And I’m beyond pleased by that
Forget me good
Moving on never looked
So easy, stuck that landing
Without skipping any beats
Simply beating a swift retreat
Now don’t get me wrong again
I want you to be happy…just couldn’t
It hurt a little first cause God knows
I do? Don’t know where to keep
It all and this lingering foolish love
North wind whistles through
Gloomy gaps seething cracks
Of my heart sounding like lost sleep
Dreams trampled dull as dust
Shouldn’t have let down my guard
For so long. Who was I to think
I deserved the promise in your eyes
Professed with a pleasing tongue?
How could I expect to ever be enough
Yet not see all the ways I am too much?
All I wanted was an always
No matter what I think you know
You’ll always have my love
I never until now wished it wasn’t so
Perhaps that’s the first step to
Letting go
Prompted by @abiblicalsasquatch:adivorce
Madness (Party of One)
I sat with myself
Then got up and left
In the middle of a row
Wouldn’t you know it? Me, myself, and I
Don’t see eye to eye…to eye…anymore
Not in eons of time since
The voices inside started picking
Fights claiming to know best
Be my guest, petty pretty ones
Go undercover. No more lackluster
Lovers leaving afterthought calling
Cards by disconnected phones
Cords cut on the bias
Another flight risk; wrists bound
Can’t wriggle out, no wiggle room
If only I could see me now
Got myself in deep somehow
Inspired by a prompt provided by @definegodliness
Folie a deux
So mad about (and with) you
Would die without you
Do anything for you
Match made in…you know where
Two peas in a padded cell
They’ll have to catch us first
And baby we fight dirty
All’s fair in love and war
And psychopathy
I got you babe and you are
Stuck with me so get used to it
We are taking this to the grave
No regrets, no mistakes, nothing
But perfection in this love
Salvaged from the wreckage
Of our lives, wouldn’t want
Anyone else by my side
Each other’s ride or die
Don’t try me, sweetie…
For life…
Or else
**Note: Wrote this after finishing You season 2. To be completely clear in case my revulsion for the main characters’ deranged mentality doesn’t translate, being a murderous psychopath/sociopath is never romantic or remotely condonable
