A sea of jumbled emotions I had longed to live again, a feeling that no metaphor could match.
EMILY KURCA sea of jumbled emotions I had longed to live again, a feeling that no metaphor could match.
EMILY KURCMen like you were never meant for storms like us.
EMILY KURCMy mother always told me that love is like a plant, but she never prepared me for the realization that too much love towards the wrong person can drown your heart until it rots.
EMILY KURCEven the places we used to visit in this empty town feel lyrical. My heart can’t help but sing along even now, but I’m tired.
EMILY KURCEach night I sit at my windowsill like a wolf howling to the moon, hoping that somewhere you feel me calling to you.
EMILY KURCSpill yourself onto the page with ink and a half healed heart and watch the words blossom.
EMILY KURCI don’t love you anymore. But each time you begin to fade it makes my heart feel numb.
EMILY KURCThere was a time when I loved you too much that it made me feel the darkest shades of blue. It’s been years now, but I’m seeing life in other colors again.
EMILY KURCI bet my words are still tangled beneath that streetlight fighting for the right combination to stay.
EMILY KURCBe here with me tonight, and lets sing the saddest moon song there ever was.
EMILY KURCDo ghosts get tired of haunting? Of chasing old flames in darkness, of walking through dreams casting shadows against walls, against hearts, do they feel themselves forgotten?
EMILY KURCI think I’ll always remember your birthday and the way you took your coffee because they’ll forever be pieces of you I cannot burn.
EMILY KURCEach time I fall back in love with myself, I leave my pen and paper behind. It isn’t personal, or maybe it is. I just a always thought that poetry was for the hurting.
EMILY KURCThere were still embers scattered around me from the bridges I have burned. I wonder if they can feel it too. The space between us lingering like a scarlet letter, I’m learning how to love again.
EMILY KURCI miss the sweat of september and the stickiness of the sheets.
EMILY KURCI am still weighed down by unspeakable heaviness- It follows like shadow currents.
EMILY KURC
