My vow
I will fight forever
When it seems like all is lost I will fight harder
When I trip and fall I will bleed words and be stronger
When I can no longer write I will speak until they cower

Is it magic?
I have never been quite sure if books were truly just words on paper, the ideas of authors who are just ordinary people or if they are magic incarnate.
Because they have never, ever just been words on paper to me.

Closure
She walked out of her classroom, eyes scanning the walls.
The desks, the hallways, the music room, the library.
To some, these are just rooms or furniture.
To her, they are everything.

Not Quite What I Imagined
I always dreamed that my life would be like it is in books.
Little did I know that would later come true.

I do not understand how some people choose to live in ignorance of the world around them
Ignorance is not bliss
It is deciding that you do not care to know about the struggles of others

Journey
Gentle waves curl over themselves
Like blue and white ribbons
Twirling together to captivate the eyes
The sky is in flames
Shades of orange and red
Reach through the blue

Rain Running
My watch did not enjoy my run in the rain.
This morning before the other humans had stirred,
I woke to the ringing of an alarm that was not my own,
and saw the irresistible rain.
Now my watch doesn't tell the date.

dear madame president
i hope that you rest easy as the world
tumbles down into fire
for you did everything you could
& we didn't do enough. it was never
your fate to carry the failures of
common sense & education, but now
