Rainbow droplets
When the rain clouds roll in,
I don't need a jacket.
I'll dance in the rain,
be the first to see the
rainbow come again.

The blanket
A dark, clear night
The ferns sway to invisible music
The leaves whisper their
sweet secrets
Perfect for stargazing
You lay out the blanket
It's golden like the first rays of sun

The bridge *draft*
She would go to the bridge every day
It was beautiful
And it saw HER
She would meet gen
They would talk for hours in the
cool shade
They were beautiful
"In 113 years will we still be strong?

The diamonds
Let the page write the story for much time has passed
Since we carved the lines into the ground
Each bloody footprint weaving a spiderweb
A map maybe
For those to come -
The lost boat
I am a lost sailor
Pulling
Tugging at
The boat
The wave
Here
Crashing down on me
Ripping my soul into
As many pieces as there are grains of
Loves

Pendulum
when you let me down,
did it bring you up?
when you love bombed me,
did you expect it to be reciprocated?
i saw your patterns
the pendulum swings back and forth
beginning,
everything was lush

It Hurts (and Thank You)
It hurts.
Their cruel words digging deep into my soul, planting their roots and taking over.
It hurts.
Hearing them all gossip about me, calling me names I never asked for.
It hurts.

Frantic Class
Tik Tik Tik Tik:
never stopping angry quiet
Tok Tok Tok Tok:
ink on paper nonsense words
Tik Tik Tik Tik:
lips are moving saying nothing

Teenagers
We lie in bed with our arms around ourselves,
cradling the mangled bodies of children
who had the stars squeezed out of their eyes so that, still shining, they fell

Different
I am… different.
I have chronic pain.
Any time I leave the house,
I use a crutch, a walker, wheelchair, or cane.
People think this is funny.
I get bullied a lot.
