Ink
There is a different version of me that leaks out,
dripping ink on these pages,
hollow and raw,
saying all my thoughts.
A flow of words that may have never left my head,

Lenses
We need more joy in this world,
we need less of this depressing sense of life,
when everything around us is so beautiful.
But we only look through a gray lens to see it,

Rabbit hole
I'm looking in the mirror,
I don't match the picture on the screen,
should I be sad or pleased?
One click at a time,
one more scroll,
oops I fell down the rabbit hole.

Distance
The distance you put between us is beyond seen,
can't believe the length I've went just to get you to want me.
Now all you do is haunt my dreams,
making my thoughts slowly bleed,

Crave
I crave physical touch,
I need to feel skin to skin,
I need to be felt,
I crave something I hate.

Dear reader
I am saying good bye to you,
my dear reader,
Because I know after I look back over my shoulder you will be gone,

Her Name Was May
There was this girl
With eyes the color
Of the sky that fills
Your childhood memories
She had dirty blond hair
Always in a braid
A braid that held more flowers
Then cherry blossom trees

Forgers of Hephaestus
smack crack whack
the clinking clanking sound of hammer hitting anvil
the hiss of a fire, the crackle of the coals

Purple paper
Purple paper ripped out of my notebook
you're beautiful in all the ways
it says in my purple fountain pen
I taught my sister how to hold the pen
and she wrote me the note

Flood My Heart
Let me float
In a sea of poetry,
Words weaving my hair,
Verses like seawater
Trickling into my heart
And lapping against the shores

Waking Up
Look
I’m sick and tired of all this shit and pretending
Look
I’m sick and tired of all the fairytale endings
Look
I don’t know how I’m supposed to survive like this
But look
