expressing myself in a quiet manner
When I feel you come close I feel your spikes Sharp like needles They ***** me Walking away Calling me back 'I love you' Just stop existing Some times i feel Like i'm a box Just a storage space I'm convenient at the moment A box does not have legs A box cannot roll on wheels Throw me away It's the only way to leave

In, out. Deep breath. Snap, snap. Two fingers in the face of reality An open lid And I can see Flap, flap To sets of eyelashes clash Arm up Protect your face Ouch. It's all you've got Turn sideways Shoes on Stomp, stomp Out the door Come back Go to bed Fold, fold Repeat.

Take my hand, we'll run away We'll run past the oceans, Past the continents We'll run past the earth, too Hold me tight; it's a rough journey All these sticks and stones People pelting us with hate But we'll make it through I'll lead you to paradise, Where no one will ever find us Floating on clouds, we'll be Among the angels we dreamed of We can do anything we wanted to Nothing with a purpose Change the world if you want to There's nothing to it Dancing among stars Storytelling to aliens Pirrouettes of happiness- You know where to find me

If I had a ship From which I could see the universe I would be on it so fast With no hesitation

Existential crisis- meh
Tell me can i make a place A place where no one will ever find me Tell me can i make a place Where space and time are nothing Tell me can i create A secret new dimension Tell me can i create A place to i'm alone and free Tell me would you discover My secret inner hidings Tell me would you discover The place i would hide forever Tell me can i start over It's the only way out Tell me; I want to know

Ehhhh some poetry-ish
You were taught From a young age To collect your money Save for the future You were taught From a young age That anything you can't see Doesn't matter And so you go through life Collecting your money Being very frugal Never over-spending But now comes a time Where you should spend Spend the time you Never did But old habits run deep Deeper than bone And so you continue To play your medley of insanity You keep stockpiling Your pile of material goods But you ignore Every one of my cries for help What are you saving for? You'll die soon anyways Live life while you have it Don't forget it when it's gone I feel trapped In these ways I still have a life to live And not here, no When will you stop? Please Please Stop.

Idek not the best poem
Gray buildings and brick houses Sunny, cloudless sky Misplaced trees and hard cement Dispersed, alone people 4745 miles 6 hours 1 ocean Away Cloudy days and cold wind Tall buildings, think and thin Cool nights and evening lights That is the distance between us

Missing Someone
Silver forests Green leaves Violet flowers You see the beauty of your world? Red wings Black eyes Strong beaks You see how it goes up and down? Smooth armor Many colors Flexible spines You see how it creates something real? Blue tint Second lungs Many patterns You see how it adapts? Warm fur Strong bones Many attitudes You see how it creates? Arguments Crippled sighs Tears They make our world beautiful too.

Our world
This is a line, you see A single line, so simple Don't ask questions, please It just is. Now draw two more lines. This is a flower Your first idea But remember it's not yours Seven lines, now. This is a human This is you Draw hair to specify gender Thirty-two lines I teach you to draw a box What's inside the box? I told you; don't ask questions But here it has come, The time to let you draw yourself But let me tell you how to do it 'It's for your own good, honey' But there are some things That cannot be explained How to shade; Much too complicated 'Now go draw your own lines' Go create your own world Draw love, draw pain Draw anger, draw patience There will come a time When I am no longer But keep drawing; It is as you are.
