018751
018751 this was the lunch code I was given
My first day of third grade
My teacher wrote on my hand
With a green marker that smelled like berries
018751 this was the passcode for my first email -
Austin
I'm chasing that feeling
I lost so long ago
The feeling when the sun would set
And a smile would appear on my face -

Speak
Today felt the same as yesterday.
Nothing changed
But there was a silence
That echoed in the voices
I heard.
Today felt as if nothing changed.
I got up, brushed my teeth, -
Bitter Regrets
I've had the same dream
Again and again
Night after night
And I spend day after day
Thinking about what it means
I'm standing in front of that building -
Nothing remains
Nothing lives here anymore
Nothing remains
We all grew up
And went our own ways
And nothing is left to prove we
Ever were there
Your bike was given to your little brother

lost tales
The wind sings-
she gathers stories, whispering tales of people lost long ago.she tells them to me
but I forget as soon as she is gone. -
When I'd Go
They all say they'd visit dinosaurs
go back and dig for gold
meet their great-great-great grandparents
be around when electricity was discovered.
When the question is asked

Little Girl, Little Girl
Little girl, little girl
Why’ve you got boy’s hair?
Why’ve you got weird sentences
spilling from your mouth
And why’ve you got the wrong words

Every Little Girl
To every little girl out there
With big dreams
And bright eyes
I hope that by the time
You reach middle school
Our world will be different

Pen Pal
I write in pen
to get comfortable with my mistakes
to catch all my thoughts
scatterbrained
and fleeting
pens scratch the itch to write
better than any graphite
the use of ink before pencils

The Season of Death
Death reaches his hands
Shrivels leaves
Rips them up
Soon the ghosts and ghouls will scream
They've waited all year for Halloween
But this death is not a scary thought
In fact it's comforting
