Poet Introduction
I am not one
I adore you, more than I implore
I adore something
I no longer have the privilege to explore
I lived off what was implored for so long
I forgot what I was doing it for
Let it be, ignore what I see
Act like it was never meant to be
Especially when it’s not good for me
But there’s so much in between
I want to change
I want to be this something
But I am nothing and everything
And that’s all I’ll ever be
I wish you never witnessed me
I no longer have the privilege to explore
I lived off what was implored for so long
I forgot what I was doing it for
Let it be, ignore what I see
Act like it was never meant to be
Especially when it’s not good for me
But there’s so much in between
I want to change
I want to be this something
But I am nothing and everything
And that’s all I’ll ever be
I wish you never witnessed me

Speaking my mind for the first time
I’m beginning to be so over it
That is the truth
This is how I feel after all you do
Being left on read is comical
Now you’ve just left my heart sore
So I must be a bore
Because you refuse to talk to me anymore
That is the truth
This is how I feel after all you do
Being left on read is comical
Now you’ve just left my heart sore
So I must be a bore
Because you refuse to talk to me anymore

Lies feel like the truth, the truth feels like lies
I think so highly of you
I forget you know what you do
Quite familiar with the power you wear
I beg for your stare
You say you want me
You need me in ways,
That will stay in between
The walls of your bedroom, the walls of our thoughts
May that be too much for me?
When all I want is less than a touch
Just a text, just a sec
Tell my how you feel, if I make you upset
So ashamed I wait for you to be near
Want to be dismissed from your attachment
Why I think so highly of you,
Though I’ll never know the...

What is left there?
I wonder if you care
When you once found me so rare
All the attention in the world
Until you grew bitter, distance became pleasure
And I no longer care,
No longer miss your gaze
Or so I want you to think
See the best of me
Afraid you’ll be the subject to the worst of me
When you once found me so rare
All the attention in the world
Until you grew bitter, distance became pleasure
And I no longer care,
No longer miss your gaze
Or so I want you to think
See the best of me
Afraid you’ll be the subject to the worst of me

This is the end
She doesn’t text,
She leaves me on read.
Back at it again,
I’m the reigning champion of words unsent.
She doesn’t text,
Left on read.
Silence lingers,
Where words are best left unsaid.
She leaves me on read.
Back at it again,
I’m the reigning champion of words unsent.
She doesn’t text,
Left on read.
Silence lingers,

Foolish
I miss what I’ve never had—
the weight of your hand in mine,
the sound of your laugh close enough to catch.
I think of you, and the world feels lighter,
then heavier all at once.

Without you
Without you, I walk paths I’d never choose,
Speak words I’d never utter,
become someone I barely know.
I am nothing—or maybe just numb—without you.
But I do not need you.
I have to let go.
Let go of you, of us, of the endless what ifs.
Because if I don’t,
I will wither.
I will rot into a shadow of myself,
A hollow thing all will despise.
But I will be better.
I must be better.
I will be, without you…

Guilt
You said you waited for me,
As if I hadn’t waited too.
You said my silence was a wound,
But what else could I do?
You claimed you knew the way to heal,
Yet left me in this bind,
We made our vows beneath the stars,
But mine were the ties that blind.
***
I can't escape the thought of you,
Is it wrong to wonder, too,
How do I move on,
When you’re still holding on?
Forgive me, please,
I beg for your mercy,
The love I left unfinished, ...

Love from afar
Call me insane, I wear it well,
Insanely in love, it’s my secret spell.
Crazy to think I could be enough,
Yet here I am, in this whirlwind of love.
Demented dreams, I hold you tight,
Frantic thoughts consume my nights.
But you, my dear, deserve the sun,
It’s mad to think our fates are one.
You’re blind to the light you truly are,
Crazy to doubt you could go far.
Deranged, perhaps, but I still see,
A beauty in you that was always meant to be set free
