weird lesbian poetry part 83259

[venusundae]

hey imma do that thing where i demand of myself i write a bunch of shitty poetry all the time, daily, knowing that statistically i will end up with at least some good stuff. and also to just practice doing and completing to overcome the habit of getting stuck in executive function perfectionism cycles or whatever.

the intention is to be back tomorrow. the likelihood of this is low. but i'm fine w failing in that intention bc i've set it up to be low effort enough that i don't feel bad missing a day or coming back in 8 years. ya know!

take this i wrote it in 10 minutes!

i want you inside me

to say this means your hands between my thighs

your fingers drumming the same idle rhythm you tap across desks and soda cans

is worlds less obscene than what i truly mean

i want your being beneath my skin

not just the romantic notion of your essence or spirit

i want to feel my flesh stretch with your bony limbs searching for space within me

i want to watch my surface undulate

as you wind yourself around my innards

curled up like a kitten in the sun around the winding path of my intestine

stubbornly taking hold around the bumps of my lungs like tree roots across invading cement landscapes

when your laughter rings out melodious like bells

in one of eleven melodies i composed myself

it is because you are laughing from inside my own chest

when your hands cradle my face it is with my own as gloves around them

when you hold me i hold me

when i hold you i am allowed to fully love my own self

i am forced to own my body as sacred

for it houses the most precious piece of my life and love

you.

I feel this intensely, don't make me cry. This is how I am when I like myself and I'm also scared this is why people are scared of me, hah.

This is wonderfully written. Cheering you on for tomorrow!!
