D.N.S. Poem: "Search Exhausted"

"So tired

Of searching

For someone

With no

Desire to

Be found."

D.N.S. Poem: "You"

#DearNotShakespeare

I want to believe

What they say is true:

You never loved me

Just what I did for you.

Tell me fuck off

I meant nothing. It's true.

I'll only buy in

When I hear it from you.

Costs nothing to admit

Almost lost everything

Before I quit:

For me. Too late for you.

D.N.S. Poem: "Be Mused"

My addiction,

Your predeliction

Created fiction

And endless friction.

No other muse

Could I choose

To see me through

Perpetual blues.

But I wouldn't do.

And you?

You couldn't make due.

Wouldn't. This shit's on you.

Allow these words

To properly serve

From me to you

This temporary adieu;

My visibility

No longer gives a fuck

About your fragility.

D.N.S. Poem: "Love Sick"

#DearNotShakespeare,

I'm sick of writing books for you.

To you. About you.

I'm revolted by my prose,

Nauseated by my poems, &

Vexed by my text.

Hexed.

Cursed.

You're the fucking worst,

& I love you

More than most.

D.N.S. Poem: "Tried"

Shredded
-My heart-
Torn apart
Like manic art
From the
Inside out.

Lone.
Alone.
Bemoaned
By this
Icy bitch:
Forever owned.

She lied.
I cried. (Surprise)
Denied.
"Further affection-
Need not
Be applied."

I tried
With no guide
Zero pride
Nothing but love
On my side.
Tried. #poem
