First day of senior year..yay i guess
It was okay? Got yelled at by the corridor teacher the moment i arrived but whatever
I am not doing well honestly. I dont think ill tell my friends about it.
Or my sister
My mom is really sick, I haven’t seen her in days . Doesn’t help that my Arabic teacher yelled about me about my grades, definitely doesn’t help that my dad kept yelling at me at anything...
Wish I could match up to your expectations
Wish I could stay clean
But we don’t always get we want
And what we want isn’t always simple
I’m just trying to live
All my promises
Were just lies about who I wanted to be
And god I wish I could feel alive
But I can’t match up
To what sober me promises
All these lies
Paint a picture of half of me
All my words falling
Snowflakes
I’m scared you’ll recogni...
Dare I stay forever
Even though it will only hurt me
Knowing I’m not the one for you
Even though it’s all I wanna be
Id run till the end
And go across the whole ocean blue
All of that I’d do
Just to say how much I love you
I can’t do any of that
All I had now it’s gone
Once with me and now you’re not
It’s now our past memories I think upon
I wanted to get there
To be there with you
Where we co...
Right when I felt settled,
Something was immediately missing.
I wasn’t sure what,
But as always I felt the need for something
I didn’t have.
I looked for it.
I checked all the places I normally fall to.
Where I feed on conversations.
Where I shove my insecurities between the cushions.
Places where I normally get the most work done,
But I couldn’t find what I was looking for.
And then,...
As he entered the elevator he said “floor three please”. He sounds nice she thinks, he did sound nice his voice rich and filled with thought. As she reaches for the button the man thinks wow she’s gorgeous, but she won’t notice me no one ever does.Hes right no one ever notices him his face disfigured and his leg misformed, but she’s different she doesn’t notice not because she’s ignoring him no , ...

I’ve done it again
But I’ll just be better tomorrow, right?
I’ll finally finish reading that book
I’ll start my nightly routine earlier
I’ll go outside more
I’ll write something
I’ll play with my dog

Miles
Or eons?
The distance seems
Lesser than a layer of dust, yet
Greater than the sun and moon’s gleams
Perhaps
My voice could reach
What my hand cannot grasp
My eyes delude me
Just a little further, they say
But then, you flee
Like a firefly in the night
One moment you‘re there,
The next you‘re out of sight
Losing you
Is losing me
But you already know
Cruelly magnificient
We reap what we ...
Blank walls seem to stretch forever,
Finding where I am is my own endeavor.
Water stains on ceiling and floor,
Will I ever find the door?
I am lost, but at what cost?
I look at my hands, they’re faded,
Worried thoughts have invaded.
I glance at a window, no reflection in sight,
Am I heading in the wrong direction tonight?
To myself, I’ll try to teach,
But my mind is just out of reach....
