How could you see me?
I was invisible.
How could you hear me?
I was silent
How could you feel me?
I was not present
And yet you did.
Thank you
You gave me a voice
A song
My voice.

We are born time travelers,
Constantly drifting away,
Across a vast sea,
Of Time and Change.
We are resilient,
Taking every action to reach,
Across the Great Divide,
To shake hands with tradition.
We are restless,
Dreaming endlessly of somewhere else,
Sometime else,
To fill ourselves.
We are loyal,
Seeking truth in the lies,
We were told in lives before,
To question everything.
We are joyful,
Calling vinyl records and pipes our friends,
As we clench supercomputers and earbuds,
To drown out the sound of progress.
We are unsatisfied,
Claiming a lot in life that has passed away,
We stare at the past and genuflect
To respect the places we will never be.

Little raven
In your nest
Scorned at
Laughed at
Little raven
In your nest
They don't see
You're beauty
All they see
Is a squawking scavenger
With sharp talons
And disgusting eyes
Little raven
In your nest
Don't leave
Let me love you
Your plumage
Is beautiful
And shining
To me
Your voice brings me
Joy
And memories
Of homes long gone
Little raven
In your nest
They may revile you
But I love you

It all starts vanishing.
Into the cold light
You forget a word
Then a sentence
Then a name
Then a paper
It all starts vanishing,
And you're afraid
And tired
So tired
And now all you feel
Is cold
Heartless
Numb

I talk too much
I speak too loud
My stupid round face
My stupid round stomach
My stupid tongue
Not making my words right
My teeth are stained
And crooked
My stupid head
Not thinking things through
My stupid eyes
Lazy and ugly
My stupid legs,
Not fitting through the crowd
My stupid hips
Getting stuck in things
My stupid stretch marks
Making me look like a zebra
My stupid *******
Not fitting in anything
Why am I always
Ugly
Fat
Clumsy
Loud
But worst of all,
I'm always looking
Through my stained mirror

Why am I not Happy?
I live a good life.
Good Friends,
Good family,
Good everything.
I'm not hungry
I'm not worrying about my medicine
I have a roof over my head.
But why am I not happy then?
Is it because of that whispering thought
Your friends think your annoying
Your parents are tired of you
You're ugly.
And you feel even sadder.
But then that other voice pipes in.
What are you doing!?
Why are you feeling so sorry for yourself?!
And you become guilty
What are you doing?!
You have a house and clothes
Food and medicine
Stop moping around!
And you feel even worse
You start aching
When you walk
And when you breath
And you become tired.
And soon, crying is every day
You can't tell anyone
And soon you feel the worst part
Of this vicious slope
Now you're alone.

You don't know how much
You have hurt me
Over the years
Every glare
Every shout
Every fight
Kills me inside
I wanted a friend
But all I got
From you
Is an enemy

I love you.
Not that way
Not the way the media says love is.
But love.
Sisterly love.
I love you
After all this time
When my family became distant
And my classmates turning away
You stayed
I love you
And you may look around for love
I understand that it'll never fade.
And I wish
You would too
I love you

How am I alone?
I'm surrounded by friends,
By family,
But I'm still cold inside.
How am I alone?
We laugh and eat together
And say silly things together
But I'm still cold inside.
I don't need a group,
A mob, or a crowd.
I just need
One
Who will laugh with me like a sister
Who I can pour may aching soul into for comfort
For one to not be fooled by my loud voice
I just need
One

Would they see me?
Never
Would they hear me?
Never
Would they love me?
Never
