  • I Promise You

    I promise you I care

    This I know for sure.

    I promise you I’m here

    Just maybe not to stay.

    I promise you I’m fine

    Just in my own way.

    I promise you I’m trying

    I swear I always have been.

  • Teenager

    I am a teenager

    My life is not simple

    I am traumatized and scarred

    And doing my best

    But it seems like adults can’t see this

  • If Only

    If only I’d never met you

    Or so I hear

    My teenage years have been a doozy

    I’ve had massive

    a dream, swirling in my tired mind, a sequence of letters makes a word.

    my brain aches, an onslaught of countless words and numbers.

    Get up, grasp the dream, make it out.

    Get up, identify it!

    Get up!

    Get up!

  • Teenhood

    There should be a word

    For ages thirteen through seventeen.

    There should be a word

    Like childhood or adulthood

    That describes

    Being a teenager.

    Adolescence is one, yes

    But it doesn't fit.

    2/15/Forever

    Someday there’ll be holes in these walls

    Where pictures of you once hung from thumbtacks 

    And the little squares of wall they used to take up 

    Will crumble and rot.
