  • 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?

  • Is it weird?

    Is it weird if

    I want to tell you I love you?

    Is it weird that

    I want to hold you

    While I still can?

    Is that weird?

    Maybe it's

    Just me being

    Emotional

    Or something.

    Is it weird that

  • I might

    I think

    I might miss this.

    I might miss your smile

    And the way it feels when you laugh

    And

    How we could talk about anything.

    I might miss

    Those precious few minutes spent together

    Every morning

  • Running away

    The second I feel

    Used or neglected

    Abandoned or judged

    Hated or pitied

    Is the second I slip away.

    Even if it's in my own head

    And not real.

    Even if you were trying to love me.

  • There's a moment

    There's a moment in my mind

    A calm before the storm

    The part of the song where we all fly

    Before plunging down to darkness.

     

    There's a moment when I can feel my blood

  • When I write

    When I write,

    It's not so he can read it.

    It's not for my friends to read

    It's not for my teachers

    My acquaintances

    My enemies.

    I don't want

    People to see me.

    I don't want

Loves

  • Those two days

    Two days

    Was all it took.

    A day of rehearsals;

    Discussing, analyzing, perfecting -

    And then the day

    We performed.

    The day that changed everything.

     

    I gave myself to the notes on the page,

  • Chicago Audition

    I used to walk into a theater and it was salvation.

    Stage lights and people who filled up a room, 

    I was happy to watch them for hours.

    I wanted to become some part of that

    some part of the instant admiration

  • Spring Rain

    I don't believe in leaves in March

    but here I am, showered full to bursting in May's nakedness

    I didn't believe, but I knew the truth, they would come.

     

    I rage,

    I weep,

  • oh, my momma

    momma, 

    you know, 

    i was so pretty today.

    i woke up on time

    you didn’t say anything 

    before you left

    but,

    my glasses were clean

    my nails were painted, 

  • For old times' sake

    I don't know you. 

    I knew your laugh and the way your eyes crinkled,

    I knew that you loved chocolate and hated shrimp, 

    I knew everything about you,

    But I don't know you.

    Not anymore.
