My Love,

You remind me of rainbows after storms,

Of finishing a good book,

Of the loud laughter in a quiet room.

You are the patter of rain,

The taste of cake batter,

The comfort in a sitcom.

They’ll never understand us,

They’ll ridicule and judge us,

Two girls in love,

But i don’t care,

Because in your arms,

I found my home....

I am not a butterfly, I am a moth.

I am ignored until I am needed

I am only called when you’re sad,

I am only there when you want me to be,

I am not a butterfly, I am a moth,

I am not beautiful, I am not ugly,

I am not special, I am not basic,

I am not perfect, I am not extremely flawed.

I am not a butterfly, I am a moth,

I am ignored,

I am not the first choice,

I am just

A simple moth...

Who am I?

What do I like?

What do I hate?

What do I cry over?

Who do I love?

Who do I hate?

Who would I want?

Who would I break?

Am I loved?

Am I hated?

Am I talked about?

Am I debated?

If I wasn’t here,

If I wasn’t born,

Would anyone miss me,

Anyone at all?

Who am I?

What do I like?

What do I hate?

What do I cry over?...

Home is the feeling,

Of cookies,

And tea,

And warmth.

Home is the place,

Where you belong,

Where you feel safe,

Where laughter echos about the room.

Home is the feeling,

Of crystals,

And moonlight,

And black cats.

Home is the place,

Where you can live without being judged,

Where you can breathe,

Where you can feel loved.

Home is the feeling,

Of sunlight,

And golden retrievers,

And evergreen pl...

As children,

We lay awake,

Frightened to death,

Of the monsters,

Living in our closet.

As tweens,

We lay awake,

Frightened to death,

Of the amount of homework,

We’ll have in the future.

As teens,

We lay awake,

Frightened to death,

Of the people,

Hiding in school.

As 18s,

We lay awake,

Frightened to death,

Of what is to come,

In the future.

We think back to the time,

When our biggest fear,

Was ...

A boy,

Who wanted to be someone,

Wanted to be noticed.

His parents were always away,

Leaving him with no one,

Leaving him alone,

Parents,

Haven’t you realised,

If you leave a child alone,

They will find someone else.

A girl,

Who wanted to be loved,

Wanted to be held,

Her parents were always there,

Always trying to talk,

Parents,

Haven’t you realised,

If you refuse to leave your child alone,

The...

There’s a saying,

If you were in a room,

With everyone you’ve ever known,

Would anyone pick you?

Would anyone look specially for you?

Would anyone want to find you?

Want to stand by your side,

And say I pick her?

When I can’t sleep,

And the ceiling is the only thing I can see,

I think about that,

And I wonder would anyone pick me?

And I don’t think they would.

I go through all the candidates,

And...

We start in Winter,

With her dark locks,

And smiling face that’s warm and soothing,

Even when it’s snowing,

Even when it’s too hard to go on,

Then she leaves.

Then she melts as quickly as she came.

And it’s sudden,

You don’t notice until it’s right in your face.

Then Spring comes along,

With the flowers in her hair,

And the laughter that sound like freedom,

Even when it’s raining,

Even when the ...

I want to sing but my voice cracks,

I want to dance but I have two left feet.

I want to read but I can’t sit still,

I want to sleep but my brain won’t be quiet.

I want to write but I don’t know where to start,

I want to cook but I can’t use the oven,

I want to run but I run out of breath immediately,

I want to sleep but my brain won’t be quiet.

I want to be alone but I don’t want to be lonely,

I...

The stars were what she liked most about the sky,

Then they started to fall,

They started to burn,

And stop trying to be the best, the brightest.

“She’ll probably get another A,”

Their whispers used to be what kept me going,

The fuel to my academic success,

But now I’ve stopped trying to be the best, the brightest.

My grades start to drop,

My As become Ds

My teachers ask what’s wrong,

But I don’...
