mhairicwalls:

he looks at me
like he is undressing
my soul

mhairicwalls:

the memories we made
are strung all around this city
and they are the noose
around my neck

mhairicwalls:

i thought that after the first love,
love would be cautious, precise;
not falling but sure footsteps

but it turns out that love
is never cautious; but consuming
and i am 

falling

mhairicwalls:

i remember when
i used to think that you were the sun

i was a flower –
in need of your warmth and light

but all you did was dry me out

mhairicwalls:

is your skin 
as soft as i remember?
perhaps i am romanticizing 
everything about you.
you must forgive me,
it is just a habit;
being in love with you

mhairicwalls:

i wish to torture you
with all the things you loved me for
but also by morphing into the woman 
you wished me to be

i will build up all your hopes
and dreams in front of you
so that i can walk away with them
swaying my hips as i leave

perhaps it is cynical
to think of the man i love
in such ways but anger
is all you left me with

and it is my fuel
it is my life, it is the token of our love
that you did not mean to give me
and my darling, how you will rue it

mhairicwalls:

i         am             anxious      about     everything
  and       nothing              at            all

mhairicwalls:

you took
         my favourite
                           parts of me
        and never gave
them back

mhairicwalls:

i’d like to step out of this skin for a while it’s getting claustrophobic in here

mhairicwalls:

each day
is a step
in the right
direction
and with
each step
my feet
drag a
little less

mhairicwalls:

now that you are gone
everything tastes a little less of guilt
and a little more of happiness

mhairicwalls:

stop hating who you are not
and start loving who you are

- words with myself in the mirror

mhairicwalls:

when you left
i felt the life sucked out of me
like a kick to the stomach;
i was on my knees and gasping for air

mhairicwalls:

i’d like to step out of this skin for a while it’s getting claustrophobic in here

mhairicwalls:

you took
         my favourite
                           parts of me
        and never gave
them back
