I want to comfort the world

I want to comfort the world,  but the world does not accept me.  It does not want the gentle warnings of a mother,  who can then comfort you...

Touch Me, Hold Me, Leave Me

 Sometimes I’m really in the mood

for human touch, human

intimacy that arises in me,

like a toddler

having enough & is taking it

upon themselves to voice it, but

once that inner

‘I want what I want & I want it now’

begins to be explored & acknowledged by

the other sprints away faster than the wilder

beast fleeing from a hyena.

Leaving me with the ‘EW DON’T TOUCH ME!’

this is a cycle I go through as a woman out

side of my period, but in a similar orbit to it

all the same, waiting held then left the fuck alone

it’s a battle between heart & flesh.
