Glass

I stare out the glass
everything out there is so free
trees, animals, plants, birds
I wish I was a bird
so free and able to do anything.
The glass traps me 
waiting for my next move
I spend all day looking out the glass
waiting for something to happen
wishing I were out there
free like a bird 
Everywhere around me is glass
all i can do is look out it
and wait and wait
all I have left to do is hope
Hope this will end
The glass traps me

  • Finding Myself

    I found myself in the things I love

    In the music I listen to

    In the books I read

    In the posters on my walls 

    I found myself 

    In my favorite drink

    In going to the beach

    In writing poetry 

  • Wishing

    I've been asked a lot,

    If you had one wish what would you wish for?

    Blowing out candles on a cake,

    What did you wish for?

    Blowing the seeds off a dandelion,

    What did you wish for?

    I wish 

  • Easy

    You act like it is so easy for you to forget me

    Like it is so easy for you to move on

    Like it is so easy to pretend we never happened 

    So why is it not easy for me?

    Why is it so hard for me to forget you?
