the modern snow queen.

my woes
and tiny joys 
blend together 
into weeks
fading in and out of focus
through my eye's made of camera lenses
I find peace
in the void of insanity
filling my life with odd objects
and half-finished paintings
relfections of my imperfections
made pretty with words
funny with tone
and heartbreaking with tune
but nobody hears
they're all turning deff ears 
on my thoughts and feelings
pretending they can't see them 
they are right in front of you
written all over my face
in the sharpie of expreshions
but you can't seem to see it
so I lay here
broken 
on the floor
my dreams crushed like glass bottles
into the sand you walk upon
my name 
said like like you didn't really want to talk to me
your just bored and mine as welll
the snow falls
like ash
coating my world in a blanket of white
the window is frosted a bit,
you can see the seperate crystls growing 
oh so slowly they progress
until my heart 
is to, entangled in this mess of cold "perfectoin" 
the frost bite leaves it
so I canott feel the pain anymore
my tears are not dried
but frozen
clinging to my face
as a reminder of who I am 
but the pain is gone
and that's all I care about now.

  • The Boxes In The Corner

    Looming over your shoulders

    Each stack higher than its former

    Every thought and every scrap

    Of an idea too scared to ponder

     

    Every moment that hurt

    Each minute that lingered longer

  • Inadequacy


    How do I push the words out
    From behind my taffy tongue 
    Thick with salty tears 
    And full of grubby thumb 


    I’m a child 
    Pretending that I’m numb 
    To escape the overwhelming feelings 

  • Paper Frogs

    Why

    When feet fall soft but quick 

    Does the hallway extend

    And the hot breath of whoever’s behind me feel hotter 

    Why do I stay pressed to the wall 

    Like a stubborn gruby sticker
