jupiter

my heart had never brimmed with undiluted love
and silken touches that caressed me before i drifted
off to sleep under coarse duvets. instead, my heart
was ripped out of my lacerated ribs and crushed
under piercing stilettos and half burnt cigarettes
from the ones who were supposed to love me before
anything else. you see when your heart is devoid of
love it shrivels and rots from the inside, it drowns in
seas of delirium mistaking even the slightest spark of
burning meteorites for iridescent supernovas.

when i saw you, i immediately knew that if i wanted
love someone it had to be you. i wanted you, more
than anything i had ever wanted; because you were
dripping with sugary sins and effulgent stars that
would outlive the ruined empires that littered the
universe. you were the the apotheosis of undying
pulchritude and malice－the ocean rustled in your
eyes, softly murmuring my name like a hushed lullaby
before ruining me completely. i knew you would be my
ruination, you cut open my carotid arteries with your
bare teeth; you wore my blood like rubies and opals－but
at least you saw me, you loved me in the only way your
twisted heart knew how to love. after all, even a drop
of charcoal stained love was an ocean to me.

you could splinter my tethered heart into infinite pieces,
but i would still come back to you; because i don't know
where to go without you. you're familiarity; crude and
bloodied, with your hiemal words and scorching iron
touches. but darling, you're the only thing i know.
