idea_of_somewhere_else
nothingissacred Under a paradise sky
somewhere tropical,
where the first thing you think of
is sunscreen and palm trees,
an idea of somewhere else
dilates
with a scream.
Muttering something about
'california or bust'
a girl dives out of her body
and becomes part of the ocean
somewhere past the horizon.
She's tasted the edges of waves before
and the beaten age of sand
but this time
it all
just
swallows
her.

nothingissacred Letters abound, they slither
and wrap around every move
I make
and the word goodbye
wraps around the handle
of a doorknob abandoned,
shivering in the fleeting warm
from its brief affair with my fingertips.
my footsteps
scream their onomatopoeia
resounding with every stomp
away from a doorway
i now know only as an exit.
i'd speak,
but my words are clenched in my throat
and busy spelling out my weakness
through the teetering of my tears
upon the edges of my eyes
where my eyelashes unfurl.
I know
beyond noise and poetry,
the ideas and the embellishments,
that you are not the one
to share my forever with...
I've just a stale goodbye
and the shaking moan of failure.

desculpame I didn't mean to crash this dream just by being me
I knew better than to come too close until that day
