Never far💟

I see you in the sunrise

When the stars fade

and the sky slowly

fills the universe with light

I see you in the morning haze

When the birds make their first call

And the moon disappears

From so close yet so far

I see you in the clouds

So perfectly lush

So beautifully shaped

So peacefully free

From so close yet so far

I see you in daylight

I feel you in the sun

The rays tracing my skin

Warming m...

1. In my hood.

skipping through the woods.

carrying a basket.

picking berries to eat.

juicy and sweet.

what a treat!

but a girl.

mustn’t dawdle.

after all, grandma’s waiting

Sleep🌟

Sleep

Used to mean

Cuddling with loved ones

In a soft blanket

Clutching tight

To my gazillion animals

Laying by me

Sleep

Used to mean

Having the silliest dreams

And waking up giggling

Sleep

Used to give

Me energy

For a bright day ahead

Sleep

Used to be beautiful

Now

Sleep feels like

A burden

Because why do I

Have to sleep

When I could be up

Being productive?

Sleep

Feels pointless

When you ...

Math Tests😢

I sit down

So ready

To conquer this test

With my sharpened pencil

I write my name

With loopy letters

Perfectly spaced

Then I look over

The first page

Expecting to feel

Like I know it

But instead

The words blend

Together

The graphs

Become meaningless

The symbols

Turn into scribbles

My mind

and

**S**

**E**

**A**

**R**

**CH**

**ES**

For _anything_

But what does it find?

_No...

Streets🚷

(This is a poem not a story, and it’s me not my brother lol)

Streets

Cars rushing by

No traffic lights in sight

Cracks and bumps

So wide

Every step

Feels like a hike

Babies wailing

Beggars pleading

Pedestrians crowding

The narrow, deep

Never ending alleys

Brown,

Orange,

White,

Fluffy,

Furry,

Tiny

Cats

At every turn

Searching for a home

Or even just a friend

Here I am

Wavering back and forth...

The Crack💙

(If you want, you can listen to Never Grow Up by Taylor Swift while reading this. Start at 2:30! It won’t be the same length as the song, so it might not perfectly match up lol.)

My eyelashes curled,

My blush blended,

My dress tied,

My smile bright,

I looked through

The crack in my window

Through the broken glass

I saw a little girl

Heavy rain

Slipped down her face

As she clutched her umbrell...

They Saved Me🦆

(Sorry this is so long lol. Thanks for reading though :) Also, this does mention depression and suicidal thoughts. Just a TW!)

“I’m not depressed, Mom”

Because I’m not. I’m just a girl who likes to write really sad poetry. Is that so bad?

“Honey… you were diagnosed with depression. Whether you think you’re depressed or not, you need therapy.”

I had it all figured out. Yes, my mind has been in ...

Find Each Other💙

There was a mother who once lived in Florida with three beautiful children.

They were all young and each of them had a breathtaking view from their bedroom window.

Rosie, the oldest, had a view of the shoreline.

Fran, the middle child, had a view of the garden in their backyard.

Marie, the youngest, had a view of the bonfire where adults would gather by every night.

The kids had a nice hou...

The wind blows my hair

I’m standing on the edge again.

The edge

Overlooks the sea

The one you and I watched

The day we met

The edge

Overlooks the sea

You dared me to jump into

A month later

I promised you I wouldn’t.

The edge

Overlooks the sea

Which I failed to listen to

When it was warning me

The edge

Overlooks the sea

Which you left me for

You jumped

I watched you fall

Thinking you would

Use a ruler

Draw a line

Make it straight

If there’s a single dent

Erase it all

And start over

Play the game

Chase the train

Until you’re only

Skin and bones

You

Be slim

Be delicate

Be smart

But never be proud

Perfection

All

You

Match the girl

Who twirls with ease

Smiles with gleam

Tiptoes with grace

And bows with praise

She
