Can't we love?
Why can’t we all just love each other?
Why does there have to be so much hate?
Can we ever learn to trust and accept those who are not like us or believe different things?

If only I could
If only I could stop doubting myself,
If only I could stop being afraid,
If only I could be happier instead of secret depression,
If only I could get better, and peace would stay,

The door that saves my life
I am in complete darkness.
The black abyss surrounds me, the silence all but comforting.
I am alone, afraid, and still as if a boulder that has sat for years.

Learn to love me (under the myrtle)
The sun’s shining on me as it slowly dips below the horizon for another day, its rays softly coming down.
The air is crisp, not too cold, but brisk enough to see your breath when you breathe.

Lo! The world yonder and here
Lo! The horizon's sweet light that shines on the leaves of the trees.
The rustling of the branches softly blowing in the gentle breeze.
The yonder rushing of the rivers across the pains and hills.

You're a sharpened blade
Your a sharpened blade,
All of you.
All the hurt,
You put me through.
Are you happy?
Did that make you smile?
Only now,
Loves

I am scared
Because my best friend is not ok anymore and is moving across the country
Because I don’t know if I will succeed in college and I ignored so many things on my to-do list

The Girl From Algebra Class
I started getting folded-up sheets of blank loose-leaf paper from a girl in my algebra class six years ago. I still remember the first one I got in Junior year.

Being a dreamer is hard
Being a dreamer is hard, for all of us. All the authors, poets, musicians, and artists.
For those who aren’t any of these let me explain it for you.

You, as the snow was melting
The snow was melting
when you talked to me
when they talked to you
when we stood with them
and their thinning perfume
their black backpacks
their straightened hair
their plans of the ride home.
