Stop Wishing

a new world is not a planet in a new galaxy within the fingertip of a new universe my new world is one where you stop wishing for tomorrow and lay in the grass beneath the sun’s endless rays far away from civilization and say, “I could live like this forever”

Her Fever Dream

eyes close flutter open in a wicked craze then close I am tired of living and why should I love again it is sent but not returned written and spoken but never kept inside lost in translation, there is no confirmation miserable silence and I wonder if I’m wasting my breath on someone who’s blind […]

Loathing

They say I don’t have many friends Because I’m weird Too odd to be included with us And though outsiders hardly put up a fuss To find out the source of grotesque hate Every time someone tries to stand for truth They’re shoved a heaping pile of revenge And told to eat hastily from a […]
