all at once
Overwhelmed
by everything unexplainable,
everything that can't be put into words.
There is too much that needs to be let go
so it comes out silently,
but is never fully gone.

Too Soon
Do you ever grieve something
that isn't even over yet?
It's like you know
that's it's going to be gone anyway,
that you're going to miss it
so much,

Is This the Future?
No matter how far I run
how loud I scream
how hard I try
I'm never fast enough
never loud enough
never good enough.
Because even if I am,
I'm not.

out of tune
What used to be my everything
has now turned into what feels almost like a burden.

Construction Zone
I’m currently being serenaded by hammering from my mom’s bedroom upstairs. They're still working on that bathroom. You know, the one that was supposed to be done last month.
Well, two months ago, actually.

The Universe of Me
My body is a universe
My freckles are the stars
The planet Venus is my lips
My teeth, they come from MarsMercury is in my brow
The furrow that you see
My thighs are Jupiter, you know
In the galaxy of me -
I can't do math
at all,
1, 2, 3, 4,
all go in and out the other side,
it's always been this way,
kindergarten and getting in trouble because I could not solve,
2 minus 5.

Remember
Remember
Even though the world is in a giant knot
Tightening and restricting
Coiling and controlling
We still have flowers
We still have beaches
We still smile and laugh

Can you hear it?
Can you hear the roar of the crowd?
The thousands of people
Kids, teens, adults and seniors.
All screaming at the corrupt administration that we call a government.
We will not be silenced.

Expectations
There are
So many things.
So many things
So many people
Want from me.
Is it too much to ask for a break?
Am I allowed to
Have a few seconds to myself or
Am I just a machine?
