I might screw this up
because you're healing
and I am broken
bad brain chemistry
may ruin true love
I'm really hoping we are inevitable
that you feel this connection
and don't want to let it slip either
I am doing my best
I can't drive another person away
but dammit, I need reassurance
I show love by sharing my thoughts
and you get overwhelmed by too much texting
how do I respect your boundaries
without breaking my own heart
I might be making this too hard
maybe if I just told you that
things would be better
but I'm too anxious to try
how about that
some love stories start off imperfect, right?

Tortured Soul
The soul careened blindly through a void where it scraped against the walls of a narrow tunnel, amassing a cumulative friction that created all the heat the devil would ever need to torment it. There was no light at the end, not even a fire. From the bottom a cold wind blew, and the clash of extremities spawned vapors of terror in the deadened and numbed appendage that was this strange, delirious, drunken consciousness.
