The things we carry inside us
Aurora had never liked group 'bonding' activities. All they meant is that you have to let others get close to you, or tell others things that you'd rather keep secret. And Aurora had never been good at that. -
How do I do this?
I want to be the someone- the someone that makes the change
and sometimes I feel like i'm going to keep pushing, and the doors will open.
But most of the time it seems like i'm nobody.
Just a 12 year old girl, in a wide, wide world. -
Where my heart lives
My heart lives in a place
in the middle of the beautiful and mysterious woods;
sitting on a rock in front of the sparkling water,
my heart is at peace.
A pond full of life and memories,
the place that I know best. -
Me
I Am
So many things
I am different from others
I care about the things that the others overlook
I am Me
I am watching the birds while you talk to your friends
But when you run down to me they fly away -
Waiting To Be Found
They surrounded me, standing tall, taller than the sky, it seemed, well I, I was -
The Colors of the World
The Colors make up everything we see,
the sky, so blue, the flowers, and the green green grass and trees,
colors are so beautiful,
so why can't we see,
that you, me, all of us,
black, brown, white, are just colors-

January Loves April
January loves April,
her silken white dress with its icy tint of blue sinking into
April’s lime green skirt, buds and baby leaves rupturing its stitches,

We've Built the Beautiful
We've built the beautiful places
through disaster and heartbreak
and luck and romance.
From the roots up, we've rocked the rocks,
and moved the Earth.

Girlhood (In honor of International Women's Day)
I love being a girl
but I hate what it took
for me to be able to go to school
for me to know I will be able to vote
for me to know that I will be allowed to get a job when I grow older

Age but not Aged
Every year the lines in her face deepen
Her lips turn slightly thinner
And her hands somehow grow softer
Yet her laugh remains the same
Her smile still as wide

I Am Young
I am young,
But if I where a dog I would be in my late 70s
And I have lived for 4x longer than most hamsters
And 170 lifetimes of a fly.
Each day I live is all a mayfly lives in their entire life.

To Be Softened (and kissed)
I’ll share a moment with you.
The day is lowering into eve
tucked in by our February smoke
the color of whiskey and gravel,
and the yard is reminiscent
like a memory of a memory.
