Field of Roses
Have you ever seen dozens of roses?
A field perhaps
Covered in red beauty
Have you ever tried walking through dozens of roses?
Your fingertips perhaps
Covered in red blood
From afar roses are gorgeous

Light and Love
The light rises and
The darkness, it disappears
Love enters, hate leaves

Accommodate Until I Break
I started accommodating at 2 years old
First it was just normal stuff
Staying quiet
Being careful
Make sure the baby is happy
I thought it would stop

Girl in a Man's World
It really sucks to be a girl
In a man's world
Everything designed
So it is never your time
Everything is rigged so you don’t succeed

Walk into a Book
Imagine if
Every book came with a key
A key that opened a door
Into the book
Into the worlds
That are your happy place
Escape from reality
Taken to a new level
The joy found in between the pages

Golden Years, Falling Tears
I always thought it would be like the movies
Beach trips and ice cream
Field trips and cheering on sports teams
Late nights with fairy lights
My first kiss
That feeling of bliss
It’s not
Loves

The Money We Spend on Mascara
Have you ever considered the money we spend on mascara
The thoughts we spend on our outside
I don’t want them to see that pimple there
Or I hate my color hair

The Girl From Everywhere
Doesn’t know what to say
The homes in her heart aren’t hers to claim
One word isn’t enough
One word shuts her up

Wishes thrown into a pond
I wish I was...
Beautifully sure of myself like Ae
Bouncy like M
Comfortable in my skin like L
Confident like N
Cool like T

Time passes, and with it so do I
I stayed up until midnight with my brother
in that horrible hotel room in North Carolina.
(I say horrible because I hate going down south
hate the Trump bobblehead in my nonny and poppy's house

Crying in a stadium
Swallow your tears.
No crying in public.
Why are you surprised?
This has been happening since you were two.
He’s the angel
You’re not.

Is That What You're Wearing?
“Is that what you’re wearing”
She says
Not as a question
But a judgment
A cold declaration
That I’m doing something wrong
