  • Can't Change Me

    She upsets me

    Her face

    The way she laughs

    The way she talks

    She's like the piece of hair

    That is never in the right place

    Why does she even wear that

    Looking at her

  • the greatest gift

    I was broken

    When I met you

     

    Yet you treated me

    With compassion

    Despite all my flaws,

    Despite all my emptiness

    The milky twilight 

    Soft and still

    Drenches me in feeling. 

     

    My eyes illuminate, 

    Reflecting the light of a million stars

    Each one a place I’ll never know. 

     

  • Still A While To Go

    I was so quiet then, 

    standing all alone against the concrete wall 

    in ill fitting jeans 

    with an awkward bob made of my soft blonde hair. 

     

    I listened instead of speaking 

  • Really?

    How can you say that you are a provider of justice?

    You pledge loyalty to sin like it's a hobby 

    just to turn around with a cross in hand

    and sickly smile in the next.

    So explain to me how you should get to decide
