Her dreams-
Were too loud
And when she was told to be quiet,
She listened.
Now she just sits in silence.

The mind was always background noise
in a soundtrack played by the beats of one's heart
with lyrics from conversations
inspiration from hyperventilation
and palpitations

I sold my soul
to poetry
because the devil
rejected it
he told me
"it's too fiery for hell
it'll do better
melting hearts"

it felt like touching the heartbeat
of my friends from a distance

Like a boiling water on ice
Dripping the pain into my veins

A stranger after all we did
Together, snitching out on me
Being suspended from work with my friend snitching on me (lies actually). There is nothing but pain for what he had done after all we have been through.

Around and around the thoughts go
With no beginning and no end
‘round and ‘round in my mind
Like a merry go round
Of life
And
It’s hard
