Storm
I love this feeling.
The wind on my face,
The fire under my skin
Doused by the rain.
The ominous clouds overhead.
My natural state it what the storm is,
Right now.
It's just how I've always been.

I don't
I don't
Open at your words
Your touch
I don't
Listen to
Anyone anymore.
I am completely in my head.
I know we don't have time for this mess.

from even myself
from the universe
from everyone else
from my confidants.

Hours I Wasted
Look at me.
Again.
Sitting in a wreckage
I made with my own two hands.
Hours—
gone.
Dreams—

I screwed up.
Again.
Same damn wound, reopened—
blood and shame mixing,
staining every step I take.
I'm tired of putting on a show
I will learn this time.
I am stuck, really,

She Smiles
She smiles
Like she doesn’t feel
The weight of
Expectations
On her shoulders
She smiles
As if she didn’t
Spend last night
Crying in her room

The Girl With Too Much Passion
Once upon a time you were the girl with too much passion.
You tried your very hardest to be in love with the world,
and it made you beautiful.
But you lost that person to love,

Lonely Rhymes
Today I thought I looked pretty
It must have been a trick of the light
I can't fall asleep in this city
I wish that you'd come stay the night.
Last week I talked to you for hours
