Inked, Suffocating

Post by kellykelly »

i don't normally write happy poetry, but.. theyre about my b/f.. although i'm not sure how happy they are, i think theyre still kinda sick and twisted a lil.. the first is about loving someone so much through ups and downs, goods and bads and always loving them and the second is about loving someone so much you cant breath.



'inked'



cursive curls cross my capillaries,

a staining, swirled signature.

black; inked beneath my breast.

with an expansion, a contraction,

it's growing then shrinking.

permanent, poised, but painful.

whether beating, bruised, or broken,

unchanging, your name will always

be tattooed on my heart.









'suffocating'



it seems you've left

my lungs unsatisfied again.

over and over,

this same reiterative game.

i catch my breath,

until you steal it away.

you've got the upper hand,

and i just can't win..

one smile and

i'm gasping for air,

one touch now

i'm panting breathless,

one kiss and

i'm suffocating.
