    Radio silence

    I'm opening my phone

    To nothing 

    No messages, no emails, no missed calls,

    All I'm getting is radio silence 

     

    The sinking feeling in my heart returned

    The one where you know something is wrong

  • Poetry

    By Bee.Lover

    It's dark out now.

    Stinging my eyes

    The tears come

    Pouring down

    Relentlessly.

    Still breathing 

    Still warm

    Yet dead 

    To me

    And me alone.

    Grief floods me

    Again 

    I'm drowning 

  • Fight

    Our fathers

    Mothers 

    Daughters

    Sons

    Have fought 

    When there is no time to sit

    When there’s no more patience 

    For our world 

    We stand 

    And fight

    And win

  • The Bird That Will Fly

    From the beginning of creation,

    Women have been underneath the growing nation.

    We sat and were forced to watch for decades,

    Underneath what men called “the shade.”


     

    But submission is temporary.

  • What is home?

    Home is the place ,

    that you feel safe,

    where you're not scared,

     you don't hide who you are,

    it's a place where you're surrounded by loved ones,

    people who make everyday perfect,

  • Truth

     Truth is a view and  truth is a lie 

    That’s always stood as time passes me by 

    As time passes I’ve come to wonder 

    Can truth be a blunder 

    A blunder to one rarely to all 

  • paradoxical

    the Midwest is a snake eating its own tail.

    get out get out get out is the head, beating in time with the heartbeat of every new baby born in these states, 

  • Underwater

    The pool deck is wet

    It smells like chlorine

    I am no stranger to this

    I know the swim caps and goggles

    I know the way of being a swimmer

    The way you either are or aren't

    How could I not

    I loved it
