My good days come and go in waves The bad ones Are tsunamis I feel the wind The breeze of feelings The temporary Dealing I take my memories And place them in my pocket I Try not to forget Even the bad ones Because that’s what Really grew me

A family of four Once five Sits in silence All loud inside   She asks to leave And as she runs up the stairs She feels them All fade away   As she cries in bed   She remembers every moment She has felt like this.   Like she just wants to run away but…

As a child I’d send my love in every direction Piece by piece Leaving none for myself

A burst of colors decorate the sky And my eyes are your mirrors Watching different shapes fly I like how in this dark, I can still see clearer   I lay on my blanket I let the darkness swallow me I want to be alone But I hear the noise follow me   How far…

I was a reddened flower You say I’m now a tower   I’m looking for all of your stories Throughout my own phases   You were the women who held me Now I’m learning to see   I write tiny stories and hang them on your wall You stare at them and hope that I…

You said don’t act like a baby But you never let me grow up You said I couldn’t be your savior But you never let me just sit there You never let me do anything But you expected everything I wanted to help I wanted to save the world I wanted to write all my…

  All that we have is Because of you   Created throughout a string of days, and now Designated to follow your rules   Even though we all battle through our beliefs Fighting isn’t the road to peace, no matter how close it seems   Girls and Boys were born at your fingertips Heaven seems…

If I was a broken clock. Would you throw screwdrivers and bolts into my Toolshed   And for everyday I thought it could go away Would you cast a thousand hugs across my arms And spill words from your mouth into my brain   Until it all turns to rainbows You thought would come after…
