Why is silence so loud?
Can you hear it?
Can you feel it?
I can.
If you can't you probably don't understand.
It's louder than you could possibly imagine.
It's like nails on a chalkboard.
It hurts your ears and makes you cringe.
You are my crush.
I feel like I want you.
I feel like I need you.
But you are my crush.
That might be the only thing you are.
I think about you constantly.
So much it hurts.  
I want you but do you want me?
Probably not.
You are my crush and that's the only thing you will ever be.  Frankly that makes me so crushed.
I know that you have walked alone for a while, but I promise I will not be a bother. I know that you have a place that you need to be, but I will not get in the way of your destiny. I just want to stand by your side while you go on your path. Can I walk with you for a while?

im sorry
but i love him
although it's not what you want to hear
that boy
to me
is ever so dear

s.s
It was the way
we fell silent
the second your
hand brushed mine—
We are both so
hesitant, and I am
still learning
how to love.

-k.p//let's pretend it's nothing
why is love so confusing
it makes you cry
yet it brings you joy at the same time
it makes your heart skip a beat
yet shatter into a million pieces when something goes wrong.
I don't want to be in love
Sad sad girl
When will you smile?
Sad sad girl
When will you laugh?
Sad sad girl
Does your cheek not crinkle?
Do your lips not widen?
Do your eyes not wrinkle?
Sad sad girl
Are you not tired?
Are you not done?
Is it not enough?
Sad sad girl
Do you not miss being happy?
Is your heart not tired?
Is your mind not uneasy?
Sad sad girl
Is he worth it?
"Yes"
Are you sure?
"Yes"
Okay then
Sad sad girl
I hope you'll be fine
I hope you'll smile
I hope you'll laugh
Sad sad girl
Chin up
Wipe your tears
Pretend to be fine
No one will know the difference
And maybe one day you'll believe it too
And you'll be fine

A car comes rushing
Bullets pay no attention
To me, flesh and bone.
Hi guys. Sorry I was gone for a bit, but I'm back now. I was hit by a car walking to a meeting on May 6th and it caused me small head injuries and impaired my breathing, but I am better now. My accident is what inspired this haiku-ish poem.
I hope you all take care <3
