[i]Isn't it interesting? There's people trying to protect you.
You say no one cares. Pretending you're unloved because you believe yourself unloveable.
But here they are, protecting you. They're holding your hand as you cry.
It's another cry. Another cry for attention I'd say.
But I'm not in your mind. Not in your...

It's You...

09 September 2010
Posted by soulconstance  
[i]I can't believe it's you
hiding behind the bushes
late at night with sunglasses on.
Because the reality is
that it's truly you
in my room at night,
sneaking through the window,
the stranger in the dark
with a ski-mask on. You're:
the people who ran the daycare
I went to as a young child,
the father of my best friend growing...

Thank You Snake

07 September 2010
Posted by soulconstance   in Multiple Poems
[i]Thank you from my head to my toes

Wrapping, wrapping a shoe lace

cut by your eyes, waxed by your hand
and waning inside by the sun and moon.

Thank you from...

Posted by soulconstance   in Multiple Poems
[i]You're a monster with red hair,
and red blood, and red skin with
thick smoke shooting from your red ears,
and fake fire bursting from your red mane.
You're a monster that makes the red rain,
black with my blood and my blue pain,
purple with anger that I turn on myself.
You're a red monster with red hate...
and your red rubs off on...

The Devil

23 July 2010
Posted by soulconstance   in Single Poems
[i]I know what it means to have sympathy for the devil.
I walked beside him, holding his hand.
I kissed his lips, smiled as I looked into his eyes.
I laid next to him night after night,
and held him as he confessed his sins.

Once upon a time, I loved the devil.
I gave to him pieces of me
that I had never given to anyone.
I spoke freely of my...

Trigger Warning

Warning: Some of my poetry and prose may be triggering. I write just about as much about survivor issues as I do about love.
Please keep yourself safe.
