Storm Coming On

The sky looks like them---
Just waiting to burst out in tears
Scream
And collapse

(this note was written by an actual blue raspberry that's not candy)

sad things

I like sad things.
Sad things make me happy.
Sad things make me feel
Less alone

I like sad things but I hate being sad

broken

he’s not broken like me,
so i hide my cracks—
afraid he’ll see the light
slipping through.

Nobody

but why

sure,
but why did you care about me?
no one ever did before.
is this what it feels like
to feel okay?
because i don't recognize this feeling.
not at all.

stillness

i think the world keeps spinning
but i haven’t moved in days

Kiss Me When I Die

I will feel your lips
send me on my way
beyond life's blips
and the day to day.

dreaming of a white Christmas

fat red berries cling,
snow breathes white upon their glow,
winter's quiet fire.
