exhaustion
drifting through our days
taping eyes open
shaking ourselves awake
all this starvation and deprivation
of today's nation
yearning for another minute of shut-eye
while staying up staring at screens
late at night

a never-ending cycle

"open up"

they said,
and my heart did listen.

my mouth opened,
and everything flooded out.

but just as fast as the words escaped,
the regret crept in.

trust issues lol

music

notes surround you
while you sob,
laugh,
and dance
the only thing that can truly
match your every move.

"what a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you" ~ Chris Isaak

if only

"it was just a dream,"
I whispered,
wishing I'd woken up to a different reality.

actually, I'm usually happy to wake up to reality because I have stressful scenarios in my dreams a lot loll
ALSO, I KEEP POSTING DRAFTS BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE MY POEMS ARENT AS GOOD RIGHT NOW IOAFOWIHGAKLGNAWGHOIWGH

alive

I open my eyes
to see a sun so bright
up on this mountaintop
I find a rock and stand up
I breathe in, as the dust picks up
the wind of life
carries my body away tonight

HII, I really want to go hiking :)
Hope y'all are having an amazing day <3

sparkling

the way you make me feel
tingles in my shoulders,
curling my toes,
I'm so glad to hear from you
and whenever you want
we can glow.

<3

abandonment

and then there was you,
my only savior,
from the plight of my life,
but like everyone else,
you left me too.
