19/F I like words about as much as I like food.
The verge of a depression Feels like an economic recession Its the ascension Before the descension A slow mental digression And my therapist says: "While we're in session, Do you have a confession?" And I say, "No, It can't be depression." 05/17/2023

Almost Depression
When I saw you again You tasted like bitter wine The faintest recollection That you were once mine It's the "could haves" The "should haves" That leave my heart in halves With you I had my crescendo And like all music You found a new tempo 11/06/2021

Lioness
I could never understand What could force someone To harm their sacred vessel To take a knife to their canvas Painting it the deepest red But then again My skies are blue And theirs is gray So maybe I don't understand But I want to try 7/23/2021

Help Me Understand
A delicately wrapped package Was left on the steps of my abode Waiting for him to come by As I peeked out my window But no one came And the package lay unopened And untouched 12/23/2020

My Meadow - Haiku
How could I leave someone behind Who left me empty-handed and blind? Why would I crawl back to that space Where hell had its place? Who would I even call With the phone hanging on the wall? What sins did I commit this time Was it my chastity or speaking out of line? When do I have that sweet release As I usher in the age of peace? Where do I find my relief When it is with my abuser I sleep? 12/14/2020
