  • As if

    We sit alone together 

    Pretending to be something we wish we were

    Not liking the something we are

    Because, maybe pretending to be something  we're not

    Will fix all our issues

  • The Hollow Pumpkin

    The season changed and so did you

    Growing cold and flicking me away

    As if I was just a fly that flew 

    Too close to your nose

    And as golden leaves fall to the ground, 

    Sometimes I feel like I did too

  • Shadow

    I trudged behind you,

    eyes locked with your back.

    I'd gotten unpleasantly comfortable

    letting you take the lead.

    Sometimes I felt like an actor,

    playing the part of your shadow.

  • Balance beam

    I'm walking on a balance beam

    I knew this would happen.

    We all work so hard for this

    You do too

    We try to include everything

    Every article

    Every story

    We can't

    We have page limits.

  • Orange pen

    Orange pen

    curving, looping, tracing my thoughts onto a page

    fulfilling my orders

    moved by my hand.

     

    Orange pen

    flying, soaring, leaping

    dancing across the page

  • How come?

    Are you aware

    what you did?

    For the third time?

    Once again?

    Do you know

    how I feel?

    Ignored

    overlooked

    how come?

    How come you didn't put in my effort?

  • Used to

    I used to love fall

    nostalgia, pretty leaves

    now time flies faster.

    I used to have friends who visited my house

    just to say hi

    who biked by

    without a trace of jealousy of any boys I liked

  • Always second best

    Today,

    I told my dad about something I made.

    I told him it was the second best in my class.

    And I was proud of it.

    But he said to put in more effort
