School

School’s great. I *love* waking up early  
to sit through hours of stuff I’ll forget.  
Lunch? A gourmet mystery I’ll never solve.  
Tests? Oh, the thrill of failing with style.  
Group projects? Sure, I’ll do it all.  
What’s not to love?

  • Summer

    the air tastes like honey and promise 

    sticky with the scent of blooming jasmine 

    and freshly cut grass that crunches beneath bare feet 

    the sky drips blue 

    stretching wider every afternoon 

  • Turning A Page

    Verse 1
    The sun sets slow on this fading day,
    I see your faces, but they feel far away.
    Laughter lingers in the hollow air,
    But something’s shifting like you’re not really there.

  • the hand

    there is a hand squeezing my heart

    tight slow like it knows every part of me

    holding on to the pieces i’m leaving behind

    the empty rooms the silent voices the half spoken goodbyes

    it does not let go
