Poet Introduction
I let the bubbles out of my heart when they start to build up.
Summer Night Remembrance
There are so many nights lately
Where I accidentally pour wine down my shirt
But I don’t mind
Because it’s the closest thing I’ve felt
To being touched by you
In quite a long time
Where I accidentally pour wine down my shirt
But I don’t mind
Because it’s the closest thing I’ve felt
To being touched by you
In quite a long time

Not Making Sense
I’m scared, oh how silly
But I can’t tell you
Because I don’t want you to think I’m normal
Doesn’t matter if it’s true
I’m scared, oh how weird for me
I usually could care less
I back off before I get hurt
To not cause a huge mess
I’m scared, I need you here
To show me some familiarity
Just take me away from here
Take me to an apple tree
This empty townhouse reflects my heart
The hot rooms could hold you, too
They could also hold your heart
My ten hour work days are filled with thoughts of you
I’m scared, it’s so strange...

The Ship Captain
There once was a ship captain
He was a kind, kind man
The whole crew loved him
No matter the task, there was no ban
I was lost one warm day
Rushing through a strange town
Listening to anything anyone had to say
Just looking for a place to call my own
My best friends became a guy named Jack
And another one named Richard
But really neither had my back
The whole town thought, “Look at her
Oh, how sad, how pathetic
This poor girl has nothing
Maybe if she didn't hang around with Dick
She’d realize what she was doing
No one to love...

All
And oh liquid fire runs through her veins
Oh but every single hair on her head was out of place
It’s because I always loved you and you were the sun to me
But you only ever kinda liked me and I was just a bit of moonlight to you
I just can’t wait to meet the one with the same type soul as me
All I gave you was me, even if I wasn't all there
But what’s weird is that I’m nostalgic for tomorrow
Take me to an apple tree, take me to the sea
Oh anywhere but here, anywhere but here
I yearn to write again
But I’m not worthy of the scratch the pen makes on the...

Until He Comes Back
The easiness of when there’s joy
Your life feels like one big cinema
There’s something you can’t quite describe
All you know is you love your life
When somebody’s else’s happiness
Is yours oh yes you can feel it
You love-you laugh-you live-you smile
But oh no you’d never think it’d die
But oh how it does in the blink of his eye
He loved me once
I loved once
Now there’s liquid fire in my veins
It burns for the hope of releasing the pain
Will he love again?
I’ll only love him
Somebody get a bucket and put out this fire
Wait, I...

The Eighth One
The first one
I wasted half a decade
Just to discover
He would never love me
Or anyone like me
The second one
Used me purely for pleasure
He replaced drugs with me
But both were just as dangerous
And even I hated us
The third one
I crushed beyond belief
Rebound is such an ugly word
He moved away from the city
But mostly away from me
The fourth one
Come to find out
Only saw me as arm candy
Got what he wanted
And ended things on a holiday
Without too much to say
The fifth one
I fell for and could never...

From Him to Him
I yearn to write again but I’m not worthy of the scratch the pen makes on the paper.
The only thing I wonder is if I had stayed around, would you have ran to her?
Maybe I’m a coward but oh a coward I’ll be
I’m so much happier but you’ll never see
Maybe that’s all for the best, you never were real
You might not have been but real were the things you made me feel
I can try all I want to pour my heart out into these meaningless letters
But when it comes down to it, all that matters is I’m so much better
I’m happy, that’s all that matters these days
But there...

The New England Poem
Sometimes all I need to do is write
But that still doesn’t make things feel right
As I walk through the sleet and rain
All I can feel inside is pain
I hear your voice in the cold wind
I smell your cologne on my friend
In all honesty I feel so far from you
What exactly do I have to do
I’m so scared cuz I’ve never felt this way
I wonder if it’s true or if it’s an off day
All I want is to be left alone in my room
You’re the only one I’d wanna see anytime soon
I’m in such a strange place and you’re not here
My nights consist of strange accents...
But that still doesn’t make things feel right

What is "Me"?
There will never be enough coffee or lavender to keep me happy.
The happiest I ever feel is in my room at three in the morning basking in the dim light of my butterfly lamp.
But that’s also my loneliest time.
It gives me time to think, and it’s when I become all the versions of myself that I forget later.
Sometimes, I document these differences.
When I return to these writings, I miss these times.
It makes me miss the old versions of myself, almost like missing old friends.
Because I know I’ll probably never feel these ways again, I’m so all over the place.
So...

September
September, September, remember September
Oh, I wish I could forget it
Nothing could have ever approved me using you as a puppet
I pulled the strings til you were caught in my green eyes
But then every single night I fed you lies
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, that’s really all I can say
But I didn’t mean to hurt you
Nothing that I said was ever true
Why would you fall for a silly girl like me
I’m nothing, nothing, nothing can’t you see
You held me and cared for me and wanted me
You gave me encouragement as I ignored you
All I wanted to do was forget you...

Embrace
Often I wonder if I'm easy to fall in love with
If my face is what someone's mind is constantly filled with
Or if I twist every last thing down to how he looks at me
To fit my own very dark delusional twisted fantasy
A world where I'm loved and everything is foggy
Like you see in your mind when you read an old clothbound book's story
I want warmth to be my best friend
I want embrace to be my lover
I want matched up heartbeats to be my hope
Often I wonder if you want to hold me as much as I do you
If when our eyes linger it's just me overexaggerating...
