Not a Hurricane, just a Cyclone
I'm not drowning in water, but words.
A feeling comparable to what I imagine standing under a waterfall feels like.
The longer you stand there, the more painful and heavy it gets.

It's enough to make a girl cry
I need to write so badly because all this anger and fear are sticking to my skin like an anxiety sweat
and yet I can't seem to make any phrases and stanzas that are understandable outside of my head

Spring in Vermont
The sun is bright and warm against my skin...
The clouds are big and fluffy...
The flowers are just starting to bloom...
The petals are every color you could ever imagine...
Pink, purple, blue....

Falling
I’ve always loved
The feeling of falling
But being dragged down
Is different
Feeling unbalanced
Lost
Losing control
As life speeds by
Feeling helpless

Synonyms
I hate the way
Skinny is now a synonym for pretty
Pretty a synonym for happy
Happy a synonym for enough
Enough is something we will never be

four years
i sit and stare out the window
stare out the window at the brown dead grass
the dirty snow melting into muddy slush
the mud that is criss-crossed and destroyed with ruts and tire tracks
