Pretty dresses

Yesterday,

He said he loved her.

Yesterday,

He kissed her cheek,

And said she was a star.

Today,

He said he hated her.

Today,

He screamed,

Said he never trusted her.

The next day,

He left.

He packed his bags,

And walked out of their front door.

Years later,

She’s happy,

She got over him.

Years later,

He found out the truth-

Of what really happened.

Years later,

He showed back up at the very door

He slammed that day.

Say all these things.

I loved you.

Yes, he did.

But love without trust-

Is just control wearing a pretty dress.

  • Can you see me?

    There's an oversized panda bear sitting on my bed right now.

    Normally I don't even think about it.

    Why would I?

     

    But right now I am.

    And it made me think

    can it see me?

    does it think about me?

  • I could be

    I could be writing right now

    about fairytales;

    princesses, and dragons,

    magic, and the prince that comes to save her.

     

    But life isn't a fairytale for anybody, 

    so why write about them?

  • In Case You Forgot

    Today,

    I saw a poster on my math teacher's door.

     

    It said, You never know what somebody's going through. A little bit of kindness can brighten up their whole day!
