Just an awkward girl
Wall to wall and ceiling to floor They bounce and shake their sheltered home My thoughts whirl in a whirlwind of smoke One after the other, there they go Chasing after one another innocently My mind enjoys the play of tag One moment its thinking of this Another of thinking of that My A.D.D. Is getting out of hand Words that are spoken to me Go over my head My mind would rather dream instead Work is a chore for my focus, It wavers and is forgetful My mind doesn't care if it is important Sleeping is pitiful For the dreams are bursting in My mind that cannot rest Getting up is a joke The midnight dreams want to be relived My mind is too nice to reject them A shower takes hours The water is so nice for a daydream to run wild My mind gets clouded with the steam Everyday task gets overwhelming When my attention runs in the opposite direction My mind decided to go and wander A.D.D. Has left me insane It had given birth to depression and anxiety My mind is in shambles

A.D.D. isn't all it is cracked up to be
Little fireflies flowing through the wind, Twirling, swirling all the way in, Through seep settled fog, And a brief counter bog, They shine a temporary light, That makes the night seem bright; Little butterflies flowing through the wind, Up and down, and up and down they go flying in, Bringing nectar to flowers and a show for others, They go on and never bring bothers, Instead they give the gift of colors, To show the world the true making of their collars; Little birdies flowing through the wind, Twisting and turning through the passage of the bend, They do not pay mind to the watching souls, They rather bring joy to the newborn foals, This proves their life has power, Never do they have to show their cower; Little gifts of life flowing through the wind, Plowing through the sunny sky out of their whim, Providing their bodies as a source of show, Continuing their flights for the peoples bow, Filling themselves with joyful laughter, That we shall not bring to shatter.

To Those That Fly
Find me Fine my heart Find my pain Find my sanity Please I beg of you For I have gone Too far without it It has left an emptiness A loneliness so deep A numbness that spreads through me That it boils over inside of me I miss myself I miss my heart I miss the pain I miss my sane Just please Find these things I need I don't know how long I'll last Without them here With me

Me, Heart, Pain, Sanity
We didn't see the wind We didn't see the rain We didn't see the way His eyes were sinking in We didn't hear the storm We didn't hear the thunder We didn't hear the way His voice grew vacant We didn't feel the humidity We didn't feel the cold We didn't feel the way His hands gripped ours We didn't taste the water We didn't taste the salt We didn't taste the way His words that were meant to invoke We didn't smell the air We didn't smell the tang We didn't smell the way He didn't take a shower We didn't see him heal We didn't hear him cry We didn't feel him here We didn't taste his pain We didn't smell his self-hate We didn't want to look That far into him

We Were Blind
Somehow I do not feel safe In this big life of mine I do not feel secure Within these bonds of love I do not know Who I'm suppose to be Or what I want to do With this impending future I have I feel so fake In this world that people say I'm accomplished in, That I succeeded in Yet, I've never felt more like a failure In the entirety of my life By preparing for college And trying to live life I cannot help but wonder What my future holds for me Or how I shall shape it And I am in constant fear Of making the wrong decisions Of ******** away all of my best possibilities in life There is so many roads to choose from And I may not choose one at all I may end the road I am already on Will they call me a success then? Will they still believe in my abilities in living life? Would they still see me as their daughter, friend, and sister?

The Future is so Big and I am so small
My therapist told me to think of three good things to describe me Nothing came to mind I thought and thought, but nothing good So I told her I was thoughtful She asked for another and I spoke in a whisper Remembering what my grandmother always told me That I was kind She looked at me, that therapist of mine With a look that tried to be understanding and fine And asked for one more word Which was really hard For there was nothing less So I said I was deep For there seemed to be A hole that dug So low It left me empty My therapist thought she understood the words I gave her But she never really knew at all

Funny things are happening Funny things are falling Some things stay the same Some change for the worst There is no silence To the deaf ears There is no sight In the seeing eyes There is no blood pumping In these hearts of ours Funny things are happening Funny things are falling Some have been left broken Some have be arised Both have been affected By these ignorant eyes

Ignorant
How do we breath in the scent of forgiveness and never once think to ask if it was willingly met? How do humans function with one another when there is so much prejudice and turmoil? How does the wind so simply carry away all of our pains when there's nothing to keep it steady? How does love conquer all when its all just a fictionalized lie? How am I here when I should be there? How is my heart still beating when there is no value in the life that I live? How can I love when all I ever been met back with is the force of friendship?

We let each other go With the wisp in the silence that was in between You had hurt me so deeply But you'll never know For it was time to let go There are no hard feelings, No second guesses, You did what you said For the first time ever And trust me It was a breath of relief knowing that we were free From these bounds that we once called home I'm sorry that it didn't work out how we wanted it to Or how we imagined it would be But that was for the best I wasn't made to be in your life forever And that's okay People change However the world still stays the same It'll still rotate on its axis And the world would move on This isn't such a bad thing, We left a mark together in our own worlds In our own way That's what matters most Our time has come to a close But that is not such a bad thing It was for the best, my long lost friend I wouldn't change a thing This is goodbye, my friend I wish you the best

Goodbye, My Friend
Beer, you said Was all you ever had Affair, you said Was all you ever needed Waste, you said Was all you ever felt Abuse, you said Was all you ever wanted Family, you said Was such a waste Reality, you said Was just an illusion Daughter, you told Was such a disappointment Son, you told Was nothing that mattered And yet you beg for us to forgive These statements you made The actions and consequences you caused And this turmoil you've created in our heads Thank you mother For showing me that even heros can become villains For giving me the truth of the world That everything will change And it could wreck you whole You gave me the biggest lesson in life That no matter the circumstances You have the right to fight against The right to take matters into your own hands To do the best you can for you Sounds a little selfish, And trust me it is, But its the right amount of sin That makes the world spin Pain, I say Is what I have known Love, I say Is hard to let got Family, I say Is a hard thing to leave Life, I say Is never easy Moving on, I say Is a fight worth taking
