Make sure to remind

yourself that you’re

alive

because

Sometimes

life

moves

so

fast

you

forget

how

to

breathe

Sometimes

They all told me

that I was bright

and that I shined

like a star

All stars burn out eventually,

then there’s nothing left but

disappointment

You held me so high

“Stay away,” they’ll say

“She doesn’t think right,”

“She has horrible visions,

incomprehensible to the mind.”

She is disorder

She is me

A single thought blossoms

into sweet insanity

A moment you can’t make

a feeling you can’t shake

I am the monster

they tell you is fake

I am the apathy

leftover from hate

I’m what they hate

that’s what they’ll say

Do you remember the time

that you and I

spent in front of the TV?

We watched Disney cartoons

and the world around us

stopped.

I remember 

when nothing else mattered

and we could just be.

Sometimes I miss 

little things that meant nothing to some 

but everything to me 

Do you remember the childlike wonder 

on those rare days when we got to see
