peachbby Posted May 2, 2017 Report Posted May 2, 2017 I thought I'd share some poems I've written in the past. I've only ever shared them once before, so... :0 Homegrown i am made of skull and collarboneof dainty lips, frozen and homegrowncrafted from thistle and candle scentsrunning down burnt edges and dentsi am made from paper and goldmy fingers nimble, brittle and coldi am made of gentle framesliving like melting ice on flamesi am made of branch, trunk and leafmaking forest fires for sweet, simple reliefcrafted from the space between water and airconjured from a skinless night, a void too barei am made of skull and collarboneof dainty lips, frozen and homegrowni am made of breath against shiverof a pale and soft and quiet quiver skin will melt like ice skin is so poetic the way tan melts into palehow lips are so unapologeticor how hair clings on so delicate and frailhow bones are cloakedwith a layer of beautytempting, yet not provoked oh how dare attribute he the oceanic curves in his handsclasped by sheer impulseflushed in pink he standsa beating, erratic pulsebursting boundaries barerupturing uncertaintya body without much wearto be loved for an eternityskin to melt like icebreath to shine like starsskin on skin once and twice alive in my memoirs I hope you like them! I tried very hard. If you have any constructive criticism, feel free to tell me! I guess I just want to see how it feels to put things out there. 3
