or nightmares?
born from the woes infesting my mind
these blood stained memories
I attempt to forget
and I attempt to forget remembering,
yet your demonic eyes
your scalding
your loathing
your staining eyes
like blood upon my clothing
your gaze
burrows beneath my skin
bores into my heart
and breaks past my veil of ignorance.
Your eyes exhume my memories
the ones with in the sepulcher
beneath the weathered tomb stone
with no flowers to decorate the grave.
They puncture my heart like needles of ice
from the piercing rain
drenching the soft dirt
and cascading from my eyes.
The ice doesn’t melt
as scarlet seeps from the wounds
the blood saturates into the seams of my white shirt
soaking me in my own blood
as punishment for remembering.</description><title>forgetting once and for all</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @forgettingonceandforall)</generator><link>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>Dandelion seeds tickle my fleshlike your kissesand such like your kissesonly appear for a few months...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Dandelion seeds tickle my flesh&lt;br/&gt;like your kisses&lt;br/&gt;and such like your kisses&lt;br/&gt;only appear for a few months a year&lt;br/&gt;disappearing,&lt;br/&gt;replaced with something else.&lt;br/&gt;Personally,&lt;br/&gt;I love the appearance of dandelions&lt;br/&gt;on a lawn,&lt;br/&gt;it gives it color&lt;br/&gt;and a country beauty&lt;br/&gt;that you also possessed.&lt;br/&gt;What would be even more beautiful,&lt;br/&gt;is the sun rising through the eastern window&lt;br/&gt;waking us in the middle of winter,&lt;br/&gt;burdened by the cold&lt;br/&gt;yet comforted by the other&amp;#8217;s warmth.&lt;br/&gt;But you only bloom once a year,&lt;br/&gt;and after I make my wish you are gone.&lt;br/&gt;What if I wished for you to stay?&lt;br/&gt;Would that wish ever come true?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51123476683</link><guid>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51123476683</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 23:25:28 -0400</pubDate><category>poetry</category><category>poems</category><category>love</category><category>spilled ink</category></item><item><title>At the sight of you, all moisture from my mouth evaporates and my tongue swells in terror.

My mind implodes like a sinking ship, melting in upon itself into confusion and wonder. So many fish swim by clouded with thoughts, and yet none grabs hold of the hook to reel onto my deck of a mouth, nothing feeds my cotton mouth addiction to talk to you, no matter how many fish I spit up or how many cabins I devour with water.&lt;br/&gt;So you continue to walk by, while I am paused, meandering through the halls dazed as I load into a life boat and wait for the bengal tiger to devour me because I can feel the embarrassment like malaria blushing my cheeks, turning my eyes yellow, and killing me from the inside out.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51122933947</link><guid>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51122933947</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 23:17:54 -0400</pubDate><category>prose</category><category>spilled ink</category><category>writing</category><category>love</category><category>crushes</category><category>nervous</category></item><item><title>You reverberate within me, reeling me into a delirium, an LSD incited high where everything turns...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;You reverberate within me, reeling me into a delirium, an LSD incited high where everything turns the color of your eyes or disappears. The hue seems to weep through my irises, saturate my frontal lobe and bludgeon my mind into senseless flesh. I wander around, depth perception annihilated, because when I began to fall for you, I didn&amp;#8217;t realize how deep this abyss really was. Sober, I would never have allowed myself to. But in the stupor of your eyes, I was defenseless against any attack, especially from your front.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51119728126</link><guid>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51119728126</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 22:36:01 -0400</pubDate><category>prose</category><category>spilled ink</category><category>writing</category><category>love</category><category>eyes</category></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/1a482f91106834de8153ab7c13963658/tumblr_mlld16TViV1qc1wg1o1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51115847909</link><guid>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51115847909</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 May 2013 21:48:21 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>"In understanding other people’s faults or writing about them in a loving way, you kind of forgive..."</title><description>“In understanding other people’s faults or writing about them in a loving way, you kind of forgive yourself too.

My muscles long to practice it, perfect it in my body, make myself angelic in our actions, to be your angel.&lt;br/&gt;I dream about it, the radiance of it all, the perfection that we could be, the light that rebounds from my face after we are together.

What else would their be?&lt;br/&gt;A shrine is all I keep in my heart, guarded by trials and listless men. A shrine for all things past, things let go and things ripped from the seams of my hands, taking pieces of flesh with them.&lt;br/&gt;So there is something down there, and no matter how many times you spit me back up, I will not reveal the password. That has to be earned, but honestly each time you meet my eyes my knees go weak and I fight the urge to walk right into your arms, whisper the passcode in your ear and let you into my shrine to bring flowers and clear away the dust.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51032209002</link><guid>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51032209002</guid><pubDate>Tue, 21 May 2013 20:56:22 -0400</pubDate><category>prose</category><category>spilled ink</category><category>writing</category><category>love</category><category>opening up</category><category>eyes</category></item><item><title>I pictured it, so clear and crisp like the ruby red &amp;#8216;F&amp;#8217; at the top of my english paper....</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I pictured it, so clear and crisp like the ruby red &amp;#8216;F&amp;#8217; at the top of my english paper. But honestly, how could I write an adequate essay when you are sitting only a few seats over? Distracting with just your presence and laid back style. Stoic and nonchalant.&lt;br/&gt;I saw it, the way you held my hand and kissed me passionately, exploring the texture of my mouth and the taste of my skin under your lips. I throbbed against you, my heart beating out of my chest and in every capillary of my skin, seeking you, cold to the core at the thought of your absence.&lt;br/&gt;You brushed the back of your hand smoothly against my cheek, eyes meeting mine, dark and intense and alluring, animalistic like you were getting what you finally wanted, and I was letting you have me, all of me. Your touch was lightening against my skin, igniting my nerves and I just wanted that hand to explore every segment of my body as your tongue had foreshadowed the longing to.&lt;br/&gt;I leaned into you, and your arms wrapped around my waist, around the waistband of my low-rise jeans. Hands light, tight, and affirming. It wasn&amp;#8217;t just you and I any more, it was we, at least for this breath of time.&lt;br/&gt;You searched every inch of me, thinking I could be a terrorist on the journey to your heart and your airline just couldn&amp;#8217;t have that, too dangerous, too many accidents before.&lt;br/&gt;But I guess that maybe next time I could invite you over to help me with my essay, and my vision, my longing might come to fruition.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51031300017</link><guid>http://forgettingonceandforall.tumblr.com/post/51031300017</guid><pubDate>Tue, 21 May 2013 20:45:02 -0400</pubDate><category>prose</category><category>spilled ink</category><category>writing</category><category>love</category><category>sextry</category><category>english</category></item><item><title>"Sometimes I’m terrified of my heart; of its constant hunger for whatever it is it wants.

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The original story of the little mermaid is that she must kill the prince in order to be human, and in the end, she loves him too much and kills herself instead.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The artwork is too great not to reblog. &lt;/p&gt;
