Dear younger me

You are music.

You are art.

You are the flowers in your hair. 

You are mismatched fuzzy socks.

You are your elephant dress over polka-dot leggings. 

You are rain. 

You are sunshine.

You are as loud as you want to be. 

You are as silly as you please. 

You are enough for this world, 

and you always will be.

  • Fun is Overrated

    "Fun is overrated. 

    You just always want to make sure

    Everyone's happy.

    In fact, 

    If anything,

    You should be prettier. 

    Like in life."

    I didn't want to be prettier. 

  • Black out poem

    before he'd left

    i could find things

    because i knew 

    i wanted it to be different for me

    you talked too much

    or not enough

    you let yourself go

    or your makeup looked too harsh 

  • My mind

    I wished I knew all the right things to say. 

    Or maybe my wish was bigger than that.

    I wanted to always be enough.
