I can’t feel my feet
Or my hands
Or my face
But most concerning of all
Is the fact that my heart
Is colder than an Oklahoma fall
I think I’ve forgotten
What having feelings feels like
It’s been so long
And I’ve been so tired
I’ve lost everything
That I have...
At night in the dark, my brain likes to spark
It ignites like a fire my most selfish desires
I feel ashamed for feeling this way
Is it so wrong to want what others have
And not just be left with no pass?
My brain hops from one thing to the next
In an erratic dance with no rythem or end
Why can’t my thoughts just let me sleep
Oh to be able to sleep peacefully,
And endlessly, in my own b...
I love you
Your hair
Your smile
It doesn’t matter
I love it all
My safe space
My haven
The person
Who always knows what to say
To keep me from drifting away
When in a crowd
With no one I know around
I look for your face
And suddenly
I am not so afraid
Of what or who could come my way
You have always been there
No matter the day
To every show
Every recital
Even to every mattene
To my f...

When I look in the mirror
A girl looks back at me
She has my face
She has my body
She has my eyes
And she has my nose
But she has seen and heard
More than I’ll ever know
She is my reflection
The person who knows me best
Who knows me better than
Even me
But me and my reflection
Are not the s...
Red, blue
Purple and green
These and more
Are the colors I see
Your wings are like a kaleidoscope
Beautiful and full of glamour
Yet they tend to just remind me
Of how easily we shatter
When I look at you
You remind me of…
Of…
Well I don’t know
You are like a gun shot to the head
Startling and sudden
And yet not unexpected
Just like the patterns
In those gorgeous wings
Human emotions
Are a...
I’m upside down
And inside out
Everything is right
I am just wrong
The things I used to enjoy
And the people I used to like
Don’t spark the same joy in my life
I want to be how I used to be
But what I was is not who I am
My right is wrong
And my down is up
Now that life is all upside down
I see things differently
It’s like a blindfold’s been taken off
And I can see clearly for the first time...
Down at her feet
She looks at the street
All cracked and weathered
From all its years being beat
Beat by the cars
And beat by the rain
Sometimes she feels
Just like that street
Broken and buckled
Riddled with holes
Holes in her heart
And holes in her brain
Instead of her safe suburban home
She walks right past it
All alone
She walks past her school
Past the park
Just past the trees
And sits...
**Time likes to trick you**
**Into believing it is the same**
**That it is kind**
**And that with time**
**All the pain **
**Will go away**
****
**Time lies**
**While time can help with the pain**
**It never truly goes away**
**You may start to heal**
**People may not see your pain **
**But if they care**
**They see the scars plain as day **
****
**Time heals the most basic of wounds **
**But it c...
