we do not write poetry
we write mirrors
which are held up
to curious faces
who read
looking for their
own reflections

I hope you all are doing well!
I hope you're all doing well.
Happy Earth Day!! I know we didn't get to celebrate today.
It's that time of the year again.
As you all know, this school year is coming to an end.
As you are probably already aware,
I hope this e-mail finds you doing as well as can be and staying safe!
I kinda miss you guys.
I hope all of you are safe and sound during this quarantine.
Press F to pay respects [to the seniors].
I hope everyone's coronacation/distance learning is going well.
I hope the quarantine isn’t driving you too crazy lol.
I have had issues filming the videos for this week.
So, it has been a long few weeks.
You will probably not be surprised to hear that convention is cancelled this year.
I hope everyone is fairing well!
I hope that you have been able to get outside some and enjoy the weather between rain storms.
Hope everyone is doing well!
I hope you’re doing well.
I hope you are all going well during this uncertain time.
I wanted to check in with you as you are finishing up your third day of Remote Learning.
I just wanted to take a moment to reach out and see how you are holding up?
I hope you and your family made it home safely and are doing well???

You asked
What is the scariest part?
I answer
The scariest part
is not the feeling of loneliness
or the darkness that fills you
despite the looming pain
of emptiness
The scariest part
is the realization
that you have lost yourself
completely
sinking in as you lay awake
at 2 AM
because you lost the ability to sleep
and you can't even cry
because you don't even care

I spent last night
Crunching numbers
10
Times you led me on
9
Nights we stayed up talking
8
Weeks since you decided I wasn’t worth it
7
Crushed up poems on the floor of my room
6
Outfits thrown aside to make sure I look my best
5
Days I spent trying to get over you
4
Friends that know what we did
3
3 a.m FaceTime calls
2
Coats of mascara
1
Big regret

I've made my heart into a well
And filled it with all kinds of hell
I've locked inside
The nights I've cried
Until it dried and became a shell

Drench me in
the sweet stardust
that falls from your lips when you speak.
I know you have a silver tongue
but I am already a statue-
if I must be rusted inside,
at least let me be plated
in glamorous lies.

if gays go to hell, then so be it.
if holding her hand in a public space
brings snickers and nasty remarks
about how god is ashamed,
tell god i am ashamed of him.
if being authentic
costs me my ticket to heaven,
i didn’t want to take that train anyway.
if with satan is where i belong
for loving another woman,
then with satan i shall be.
i would rather love unapologetically
than follow those who have condemned me.

ten years ago,
she danced as i watched from the crowd.
her silk pants and gold earrings
shimmered as the sun’s ray hit
her tan skin and long, black hair.
light on her toes,
her body moved like water,
bending with the wind.
up close, the specks of glitter on her cheeks
framed her caramel eyes.
we climbed up stone mountains,
away from the city,
where her beauty blended in
with the stars of the night sky.

when our shields fall
and time runs out,
we have no choice
but to battle one another.
for days, our armies have trained,
our resources expended.
we’ve built our crystal walls up high
and our archer towers higher.
bombs and springs are scattered
across the village.
our goal: no one leaves unscathed.
the kings and queens lead the army.
our dragons soar with rage,
burning down everything in its path.
our troops race to claim our loot
and bring home to our clan
more trophies and more honor.
