Mistake love

Went to a poetry workshop with Hanif Willis-Abdurraqib today and he had us do erasure poems based off of Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space.” I’ve never done one of these before but I think they’re pretty cool.

Mistake love

I know I’m dying

Grab my hand

I can make good forever

You can tell the pain loves you

I love you

We’re a nasty scar

Love’s blank lips kiss the King

Queen is screaming

You’ll come, darling nightmare, forever

The pain loves love

You love nasty

I’ll love torture

I didn’t love forever

It’s over

#73

I need you for bedtime stories, silly songs, funny accents, and making children laugh and feel loved. Just give me that. Please.

#72

Darling, I miss you.

#71

Being able to focus on only you is wonderful. How long can I make this last?

#70

I've learned so much in your absence, but damn it I miss you.
