On The Way Home
IZZI
I haven’t walked this way
Since you and I
began
I haven’t walked this street
I haven’t walked with my head down

I'm Most Likely
I’m most likely
To climb a mountain
And not want to go back down.
I’m most likely
To say things I shouldn’t
And not regret them

Spilt
It’s that feeling
Of awkwardness
Of excitement
Of twenty million things on the tip of your tongue
Of so many words that will never be said.

I Listen To Music On The Bus
I listen to music
On the bus
With my teal earbuds.
The songs
Do not drown out the noise

Australia
At school we draw in the margins of our notebook paper
and toy with the idea of moving to Australia.
We look up the latest news in between classes, knowing that
the teachers will think we're addicted to our phones.

Emojis
I scroll through the options
Endless rows
And rows
And rows
Of smileys
And animals
And faces
And people
And things.
I scroll through the multicolored hearts
The laughing faces

Drill It Out
Inspired by the lockdown drill and debrief I had in school today
Cold hands on my shoulder that chilled to the bone
A school hallway, a morning like a dream. A class change.
