POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Lots of things don’t make sense. I’m things :)
I Wish
Someday I want to wake up
Invisible
Or maybe invincible
Either would be nice
Invisible
Or maybe invincible
Either would be nice

It Is What It Is
I hate being on this rollercoaster
I don’t like the drops
I don’t like the climbing
Why can’t I just stay at standstill?
I don’t like the drops
I don’t like the climbing
Why can’t I just stay at standstill?

Quiet And Loud
I don’t quite know myself yet
I don’t think anyone ever knows the full extent
Of their true being
No matter how long they have been on
This earth
But what I do know
Is that I am happy
And proud
I can be wholly and undeniably me
I’m so grateful for everything.

So Much To Do
Yesterday was easy
Today is hard
That’s just how it is.
Today is hard
That’s just how it is.

I Am My Own Person
But just watch as I walk away
Watch how the eggs you throw
Don't crack when they hit my body
Watch how I have realized
Love is not blood.
Love is support
Love is happiness
Love is what I feel for myself
Still for you too
But
I have finally realized my worth
Watch how I walk away so so free, darling.
Watch how the eggs you throw
Don't crack when they hit my body
Watch how I have realized
Love is not blood.
Love is support
Love is happiness
Love is what I feel for myself
Still for you too
But
I have finally realized my worth
Watch how I walk away so so free, darling.

I AM ALIVE
I finally switched to Spotify
And I finally hung out with the people
Who actually love me
I bought myself a fake nose ring
Because I can’t get a real one yet
And I bought green trinkets
And nail polish
Green is the best color.
And I bought myself flowers
And a stuffed animal
From my favorite childhood show
I didn’t put them on my desk and pretend
Someone else got them for me
I know I’m cared for
I have the love I need
And I finally hung out with the people
Who actually love me
I bought myself a fake nose ring
Because I can’t get a real one yet
And I bought green trinkets
And nail polish
Green is the best color.
And I bought myself flowers
And a stuffed animal
From my favorite childhood show
I didn’t put them on my desk and pretend
Someone else got them for me
I know I’m cared for
I have the love I need

Far Gone
I may not remember what color your eyes are
And the last time we spoke
But I do remember
The way your eyes crinkle when you smile
And the last time we spoke
But I do remember
The way your eyes crinkle when you smile

No Silence
How do you sleep so well at night?
I don’t
I mean, I do
But I also wake up dripping
Over some nightmare or dream
That faded away as soon as I saw
My blankets in front of me
I sleep well
Until I don’t
I don’t
I mean, I do
But I also wake up dripping
Over some nightmare or dream
That faded away as soon as I saw
My blankets in front of me
I sleep well
Until I don’t

Let Me Stay In Bed
I love life
I love living
But there are days
When it feels like my shirts are choking me
And everything my eyes land on
Has me questioning if it could hurt me
If I could use it
When I physically can’t function
And I snap at everyone
Because if you talk to me
I won’t listen
I’m too busy trying to deal
With the voices in my head
I don’t have energy to change my clothes
Or shower
Or brush my hair
I’ve been fighting
My teeth have been gritted ...

Was It Not Permanent?
All I do is sleep
And eat junk food
And watch tv in bed
And go to school
And go back to bed
I don’t understand
Why isn’t anything sticking?
I used super glue
And eat junk food
And watch tv in bed
And go to school
And go back to bed
I don’t understand
Why isn’t anything sticking?
I used super glue

Old Age Beauties
Do not look for me in sunsets
Look for me
In the way a curtain flows
When wind is rustling though it
Look for me
In the way water droplets
Fall from a sweated glass
Look for me not in the major beauties
But the simple
The strong
Look for me
In the way a curtain flows
When wind is rustling though it
Look for me
In the way water droplets
Fall from a sweated glass
Look for me not in the major beauties
But the simple
The strong

I Hope You Can See Me Now
I have comfort
In the fact
That you are looking
At the same cotton candy sky
I am
isn’t that so strangely beautiful?
You are in heaven
And I on earth
Yet we still view the same sky
In the fact
That you are looking
At the same cotton candy sky
I am
isn’t that so strangely beautiful?
You are in heaven
And I on earth
Yet we still view the same sky
