I met you in the garden of Eden-
or so it felt
you were Adam,
and I,
Eve
I bit the apple when I fell in love,
with all the good
comes all the evil
when you took a bite it was poison
you unraveled a world outside of pandora’s magic box
you opened up my secrets
please,
don’t ever tell
it’s not like you to promise
but,
you swore-
to protect me
you got that sword out of stone
put a dagger into my heart
stabbed me more than Caesar
the garden of Eden burned down
with you and I in it
our empire crashed
collided
seized
our time together just a sneeze
God never meant for
Your favorite highway by SarahTriceratops, literature
Literature
Your favorite highway
ou don't know what my favorite food is
and right now, thats okay
I am okay with simple
I am okay with complicated
No regrets baby
Fall hard
Fall fast
After all,
we only live once
Courage comes at a high cost
You have to choose
Do you wanna be courageous?
....Or, do you want to be a follower?
Hiding under her oppression.
You look like a surfer chick
You'd be a lot of things
But you gotta take your freedom
Wars weren't fought for nothing
but babe,
I'm not here to dictate your life
But I want this to be our life
As simple as possible
You + me
Our bed.
Every night.
Someday we could be driving
Down your favorite highway
Into t
Waterlogged and worn down;
The story of a life,
Muddled ink is hard to decipher
As strange as it seems
For a new book,
to have pages missing
This story isn't so strange
For those who live inside
Torn
Bent
Withered
Broken at the spine
Not enough pages
Too many damaged
Hard to read
Not a book about peace
No more a fairytale,
than it is a work of fiction
Nothing less than palpable
In actuality,
this isn't a story at all
Just a life of a girl
Whose reality is distressing
Cluttered pathways
Inside of my brain
A blockade
Causing me to break
Open wounds leaking the pain
Not your ordinary angst
Years of damage
Faces of my offenders
Not an easy fix
Many have tried
Refusal to change
Accepted I'm damaged
Only one person
Who I want to hold
Out of reach
Does not reciprocate
Beautiful girl
Making it tolerable
Beginning to love her
Still struggling
An ex
Tried to save me
Not good enough
Memories won't fade
Unable to get by
Relapsing
Experimenting with drugs
A high never felt before
Old and new
Problems
Can't deal
Not easy to handle
Relapse again
Til my body is grey
Covered in dirt
At least it's not blood
Society Has No Say On Gay by SarahTriceratops, literature
Literature
Society Has No Say On Gay
Young and in love
Over and over
We fall for those we shouldn't
Society thinks they have a say
But our hearts have other plans
Those who don't understand
Try to change us
They think that queer is wrong
That queer is curable
I speak for myself when I say,
I've loved many
But only felt right with a few
And one of them is a woman
And so am I
At least genetically
Gender
Sexuality
They're like water
Fluid
You knock a glass over
The water is displaced
But it is not gone
You can knock us over
We will not disappear
Wrong isn't the word for us
Nor is unnatural
Try something like human
Some cells, tissue
A brain that conta
