hearts

I like drawing hearts, they represent love.
Each one imperfect, misshapen, unique.
But still made for love.
Just like us.

A little late but Happy Valentine's day!
I got a Valentine so I'm very happy 🥰
I can be loved yall!

Perfect Villain

I don't remember
how it started
but I remember
the growing
pain.

I ended up being
everything I hate.
I wish
I was more
like the heroes
from stories,
the broken
yet wonderful girls
from all the twisted
but happy fantasies.

But I ended up being the perfect villain.
The one who's dying on the inside.
The who's being punished
for not letting out the pain right.

I think I wrote this about a year ago, I just thought it would be cool to post. I really like the quote "Every villain is just a broken hero" and other quotes about how the villain is bad for a reason, it's mostly always the world that made them that way..

I feel numb.

I feel numb, unneeded,
I fear I don't fit in the way I think I do
Who would care if I was gone?

just clearing out a draft, thoughts?

If pretty's on the inside...

They say that what's outside doesn't matter,
but what if what's inside isn't pretty either?

I feel like I need to rewrite this :P

Not that kind of girl.

It hurts,
it hurts so,
so much
knowing
that I'm
not the kind of girl
people write songs about
or think about,
care about
or fall for..
Cause I'm too noisy
but also too quiet.
cause I'm not gentle
and not that kind
and I'm not gorgeous
or amazingly talented
and smart.

Will I ever find love..?

😭 Just needed to get my feelings out...

I feel guilty (smudged sketch)

I feel guilty,
And I think it's all my fault.
I feel guilty,
For being too much
but still not enough.
I feel guilty,
I swear
I didn’t mean to mess this up too.
I feel guilty,
Because it seems like
my presence just makes things worse.

I feel guilty,
And now I rot because I must.

Made a twist on "Messy Black Squiggles" by my buddy Khadi Alza, she's an awesome poet. CHECK OUT HER ORIGINAL POEM!!

I'm fading..

"Stars shining bright above you"
Cause you're a beam of light, and I'm... a creature of the dark, fading.
But still, I hope you dream a little dream of me.

I was bored and was humming "Dream a little dream of me" and just thought of this...
