Anything, Everything
I write a lot of stuff
About my friends.
I write a lot of stuff
About anything,
Everything,
Under the sun I could
Possibly dream up or
Imagine.
But you?
Somehow

What if?
What if I never find it?
What if all of this is for nothing?
I've been hurt by caring before.
It's easier not to...but it's been a freedom for me.
I don't want to give that up.
I want to take the next step.

Amongst the clover
Here you lie,
Upon the grass,
Clover disguising your fragile body.
Far away from your nest and kin,
How did you get here?
Ruining your innocence
Ruining mine
Comes the wheel -

When
When I find
That maybe I don't love it anymore -
When I lost the spark
When I realized
I don't really care
If I make it,
Or don't -
It scares me.
I wander around at practice,

A field of dandelions
Walking through a field of dandelions
Clinging to my wish,
Clutched in one hand,
Wondering what on earth
I could possibly ask this field of dandelions for.

Conductor
He raises his hands,
And as our cue,
We begin our dance -
Instruments,
Communicating,
It's like we can talk to each other
Through the song.
He claps his hands twice -

Constellations of Friendship
Hair tucked behind ears,
Cheeks pink and glowing,
Smiles illuminated by the sun,
Weeping willow branches cascading like poetry
Onto fluttered-closed eyelashes;

i peeled my orange today
"we all have our 'i peeled my orange today' stories."
bright letters fill my screen.
i'm pondering if i should message you,
or just let you be.
i give in;

One year, one lifetime
My world is different
A new place
A new name
Yet still just the same as last year
Still the same crushing sorrow
Still the same grief as last year

Summer Cons
Everyone is so excited for summer
and I don't dislike them for it
but I don't understand why.
The heat is overwhelming
temperatures of 80, even 90 this year
and it's only barely June;

Falling
I am falling down
further
and further
faster
and faster
the school year is almost over-
hooray, summer-
but all of a sudden
reality crashes down on me
as powerful as a tidal wave
