dear boy:

why do you keep
running away?

when i see you
i want to scream your name
in a pitch higher than
the tide pulls,
but even if i did
you wouldn’t turn around.

-

dear girl:

did you know
that it’s bad luck
to make wishes
on shooting stars?

did you know that
fucking is just physics?
so don’t be jealous.

did you know that –
did you know,
did you know,
did you know?

i’m high right now and
honest-to-god i’m not okay.

-

dear boy:

policemen are patrolling
libraries
when they should be
outside your house
getting ready
for what’s going to happen.

i can tell
that expression on your face
means nothing but
bad.

-

dear girl:

i’m afraid that flesh on flesh
will turn into pen on paper
and just be a part of the past,
another suicidal poets piece,
another damn cliche. 

you taught me how to laugh but be warned,
i’m not as beautiful on the inside.
