Lottery

Momentary
To be young is to feel the grass growing beneath your feet
And wander through the woods aimlessly
To see the little, quiet things unnoticed by all else
And say,
I saw something beautiful today.

Societal grief
I sit in polished classrooms
behind gates and old brick walls,
arriving in quiet cars
that glide past the lines outside. -
This is What Help Feels Like
I think I might drown
From the weight on my shoulders
Expectations,
Hopes,
Dreams.
I want to meet them
I need to meet them

Dirt Roads
Dirt road, springtime
Air wet with snow
Evaporating,
Roads soft,
Like new petals.

Pony tail

one I achieved just barely last night.
If I don't try,
it comes easy.
Be funny
be cool
be liked
I want you to think I am those things
