Father
In another life, I have a father.One who plays tea party with me when I’m four.One who always opens up the door.One who reads me fairytales every night.One who teaches me wrong from right.One who encourages me to do what I love.One who I can be proud of.One who doesn’t need a drink.One who doesn’tContinue reading “Father”
Fireflies
My hands, the missing puzzle pieces to your hips.Diving in fully kissing the honey from your lips.The harmonious sound from your laugh, as I caress your back, has Mozart quaking in his grave.The universe may come crashing in due to our bodies creating such an electromagnetic wave.Fingers intertwined, like roots from a forest tree.I keepContinue reading “Fireflies”
The world is beautiful in my mind
My words boomerang off of your temporal lobe.My loneliness is building up, I might implode.“I’m listening,” you say, but I can feel you aren’t.My sky blue eyes begin a rapid torrent.I just want someone to understand and listen to my poetic ramblings.To let me cut loose and release my strings.I’ve never felt like I’ve belonged,Continue reading “The world is beautiful in my mind”

Bruise
In my heart, there’s an outline of you.I tried to fix it but nowadays it only knows black and blue.I really love him but I know I miss you.I wish you the best I really do it’s just the emptiness in my chest. It feels like an open wound, only lessening when I’m with you.
She
She is usually the last to know about anything She chose writing over healthcare or teaching She wants to go but is not invited She does not talk very loud because she is frightened She gets lost in books because her life has not been an easy story She does not show her true feelingsContinue reading “She”
Do shadows cry?
Dark skies Crystal droplets Hitting my window. There I see it Hiding within me My shadow. Staring into my eyes Shades of blue and green Looking back at me. I notice nothing but How dark they’ve gotten Dead like the sea. I try to get them to lighten Droplets are now falling Falling onto myContinue reading “Do shadows cry?”
Bipolar 2
I hate being bipolarOne minute, I feel as high as a high rollerThe next, I am screaming at the oncoming darkness“NO NO NO you aren’t taking me this time.”I yell with intensnessBut without a doubt, no matter how hard I fight or how loud I screamI drown in the dark.
