This isn't really a poem,
at least I don't think it is
just me being honest and true
about me and my life... Woohoo!

I'm doing okay I think,
sometimes I can be get depressed to the point of exhaustion
still haven't been able to cry and its been slowly tearing me apart.
But then sometimes ill be really happy and content.

It's weird but I guess it's human

A lot of people are disappointed in me,
not because of what I've done but rather what I haven't done?
I get where they are coming from but as long as I'm content what's the problem?

OH WELL!

Pretty excited for my birthday... The big ol' 18
getting pretty nostalgic for my teens, even though I'm still in them
I think ill miss it a lot honestly, maybe I'm just scared but there's fulfilment in that fear

it's human
I'll try and write more actual poems more this month but for now this is all I can conjure

I never really understood the waves,
that was until the moon found me.

showed me how to sway
from side to side,
riding the waves with her by my side.

I never really understood the waves,
that was until the moon left me.

ripples and crashes,
tsunamis and floods
thought to be normal for an ocean like me.

I still don't understand the waves,
they hurt and slam
they weave and whisper.
Waiting for a new moon to help guide me through

The Waves

Split nails, wonky hair
bent fingers, haunting glare

the broken boy, shattered by life
still whole outside, aware of the rest

digital style, fractured mind
overwhelming thoughts, built up inside

the broken boy, waiting for a release
hugging and screaming, begging for peace.

your fireworks scared my dog,
not cool.

'Have you seen his poems?
They are quite class'

no malice no contingency
just an honest opinion

for a 'class' poet
like me.

Love the flutter,
Risk the sting
It was hard to decide whether to have 'risk' or 'hate' as both have their own meanings and attitude but to love the flutter you risk the sting and vice versa

The vault with no dial
a door with no key
swelling up, whispering
"please release me"
