  • happiness

    Rain.

    Laughter.

    Smiles.

    Swimsuits and twister.

    Getting soaked just for fun.

    This is girlhood.

    This is happiness.

    This is freedom.

  • "Normal"

    What is "Normal"?

     

    We have all asked ourselves this question before, but have we ever had a clear answer?

    "Normal" isn't real but is also everything around us...

    "Normal" is different for everyone.

  • Journey

    Gentle waves curl over themselves

    Like blue and white ribbons

    Twirling together to captivate the eyes

     

    The sky is in flames

    Shades of orange and red

    Reach through the blue

     

  • Rain Running

    My watch did not enjoy my run in the rain.

    This morning before the other humans had stirred,

    I woke to the ringing of an alarm that was not my own,

    and saw the irresistible rain.

    Now my watch doesn't tell the date.

  • I don't

    I don't

    Open at your words

    Your touch

    I don't

    Listen to

    Anyone anymore.

    I am completely in my head.

    I know we don't have time for this mess.

    I do it anyway.

    I don't

    Pay attention.

  • dear madame president

    i hope that you rest easy as the world

    tumbles down into fire

    for you did everything you could

    & we didn't do enough. it was never

    your fate to carry the failures of

    common sense & education, but now
