free as the rain
i want to hide i don’t want to be here i know that everything is a lie and eventually we will all die so why try so hard now? can i curl into a ball and disappear? i hate my own face and voice i even think my shadow is ugly i stood in frontContinue reading “free as the rain”
quicksand
one of my biggest flaws is that i don’t know whether i will fall or rise against the wind so instead of taking the leap i’m too fucking scared to move so, every day i stay in the same spot worrying, being in a chaotic desperation wanting to break out, but never wanting enough iContinue reading “quicksand”
Lucky
You said i was too lucky To never have to walk Through the Forest of Darkness Until my heels bleed, Hear the sounds of the fighter planes Going above my roof, Run against the B-52 bombs Striking across the sky Like lightning, like clipped-wing butterflies.

expectations
the road seemed endless street lights lined up to lead back to you i was going slowly tonight, lingering thinking about the poems i never write the expectations i could never live up to and that’s okay. t.l. writing the poems in my head always sounded better
exit sign
exit sign on the wall i love the melancholic pink sky at 5pm so pretty and still, like how the sky should be before a big hurricane is there really a way out of insanity? aren’t the wisest ones being called crazy? i love the little dog on the bike looking back at his owner,Continue reading “exit sign”
