Clown girl

I put on brown lipstick and climb out of my Jack in a hole
prize my first victim, collar tucked
empty as I
step on the brown earth
kill all the flowers
paint my ideas on scraps
of paper
you say,
Fuck you, clown girl
you think you know me, no ya don’t
see past your makeup and screwed up world
empty as I
Never had power
Delusions, safe fantasy
you wield no power
no
run and hide

strong sensitivity
feel a bud open up
I share your affinity for making bruises
And I get, and I get what you wanted
so far off when you stay
in the cold, out of bed, on the carpet
It’s a gamble, a tight rope, rip me up
I’m slightly broken anyways
it’s all good
How can you fill me up when you’re hardly around
ride and mount cherry tops alone in my head
And I get, and I get what you wanted
So far off when you say
getting old, out of touch, automatic
Hit the lotto, a jackpot, rip me up
I’m slightly broken anyways
it’s all good

Reaching for comfort
through a boy I never met
I know,
our lonely hearts in streams
sing sunsets to the dusk
And when it echoes
you know I’ll be listening
Our angry hearts
built fortresses, a fight I lost
still haunts me in the day
and floods my dreams at night
I hope it echoes
and that you are listening
Crawl into corners
and sink into holes
It’s another disaster
on our way to the end
Even with small steps
the dust still closes in
A hundred matches lighting up
I can triple the flame
with all the air in my lungs
How much can I take
alone?
Reaching for comfort
through a boy, I never thought
of love
A jealous heart in vain
sings sunsets to the night
I know it echoes
and that you are listening
Tongue amplified
Spoke poetry, a language lost
Its blood blooms in the sky
and pinks my skin at night
You keep you’re eyes closed
and feel in the dark for me
Crawl under covers
of a bed that isn’t mine
It’s another disaster,
a brand new way to die
Even and small breaths
with dusk still coming
A hundred matches lighting up
I can triple the flame
with all the air in my lungs
How much can I take
alone?
Bearing a halo,
a circle of stars
Feel the heat of the flame
as I blew kisses to dusk
My body echoes
in embers that pulse faintly.

Wake
02:46

Thinking of leaving it all behind
close the door
I’m not gonna change my mind
I slept and dreamt
Out here
building a paradise
‘til I crashed
What was it that opened my eyes?
snuff the panic when I wake
When I wake
I’ll never be the same
painted red on petals blossoming
When I wake
Burnt green, now I’m smoldering
staring back straight-faced,
no cowering
When I wake
I’ll end it
remove the art
Take back for pieces of a broken heart
When I wake
When I….
Walking over the flowers
salty air healing the wounds in my lungs
as the chemicals ignite
battle scars, entangled in crossfires
Lines I cross just to make a little room for myself
feeling guiltless when I wake.
When I wake
I won’t be suffering
Painted red, all angles blossoming
When I wake
Deep green unraveling
Looking up straight-faced,
No cowering
When I wake
I’ll pick up, remove the art
Take back for pieces of a broken heart
When I wake
when I wake
