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,

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

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.
