she hurts people
she loves sometimes,
trying to love herself
intensions often
colored in hues of
red,
green,
self depreciation.
like most pain,
its blinding,
tunnel vision
defense mechanisms
kick in,
before her compassion does
her understanding
good sense
self love
love for others
even in
its moments of truth
accuracy
doesnt change the reality
that sometimes
isnt pretty
fair
explainable
to her or anyone else
even when its justified
out of her control
what she needed to hold on
in that moment
to hold on to herself
Only repeating
cyclesof rough choices
some not made well
more mistakes
berating herself
instead of
breathing
deep enough
reminding herself,
she too is a student
sometimes
people she loves
hurt her
in efforts to love themselves
She can rationalize
take a minute to understand
thier journeys,
thier pains
even in moments
she has to distance herself
to not wear thier scars
she will empathize
past her hurt and judgement
usually..
even if it takes some time
something she cant seem to do
for
herself

Lips graze
lobes of ears
whispering
vivid illustrations
What's on its way
decoded by
love bites
along necklines
tracing collarbones
warm breath
moist skin
pulses racing
until
one
deep
breath
all movement
intensifies
in flashes
rapid blinks,
arched backs,
open lips
emerge sounds
only gods
and lovers
understand
each
sound
different
as it
keeps measure
expresses sensations
new movements
chest to backs
we become
fusion-
hands gripped
around shoulders
you
pull
me
to you,
we linked
so tightly
not even
space or time
could move
between us
every
hip sway
we defy old
recreate new
definitions
of
passion.
