DElizabeth: Favorites

I just want to be yours. Keep you on the safe side of the sidewalk and open the doors. My own personal queen, my loveable human being. Love falls and I'm raked up. Safer wrapped in your hands. Your smile branded in my head, daydreaming of us chilling in bed. Conversations that don't end. I need you all the time, I need you to be mine.
Last relationships I've had weren't much better, but for you I'll give you my forever. Harder to accept but I won't allow me to fall with out a parachute. Maybe that's why I'm falling harder for your view. A love so unique and new. Hopefully you'll be the only one I can officially say..... I do.

prayers in silence

prayers in silence

i believe,
even the stars
get tired.

when the night sky
had folded them away
back into the darkness

and the moon,
that lonesome thing,
has doused itself in shadows.

so will you too, my friend
shy away from the light
as if it would burn
if it reached you.

maybe you feel,
you just are not strong enough
to face the day.

that the midnight hour
is a broken thing

and oh, the silence
is deafening.

and you and i know, even the stars
are tired.

you mourn for them
as their light expires.

if it all fell apart tomorrow
and why wouldn’t it
I would still applaud the
fact
that we tried

It’s okay

It’s okay

It’s okay to love someone

And tell them no

It’s okay to love someone

And tell them they’re wrong

It’s okay to love someone

And disagree

We're Just Girls

In another universe somewhere
my mother and I have never fought.

We still hold hands as we fall asleep.

A pomegranate story

‘Aren’t you afraid of my darkness, my dear?’ Hades asked with mischief in his eyes.
‘No.’ Persephone replied, ‘You haven’t seen mine yet.’

Do you know the story about Hades and Persephone?

I might die tomorrow

I might die tomorrow.

I am 5, & I don't know my family. I was born like this.
They say my life is in gods hands,
but I don't know what God is? God if you are there, will you please send me an angel?

I heard angels are beautiful.

A lady came today, she said I was so pretty. She told me she would take me somewhere special where they would take care of me, is she your angel?

3 days later I was on the ocean, shoved into a train car on a boat. All of us, children,
we need baths, we need food. She lied, we are not safe.

Oh no! Where am I?
This place doesn't look clean,
this is scary, now I am in a cage like an animal!
We all are, all the children around me, they are crying... they are not safe,
we are so sad,
they are hurting.
Where am I?

It is so dark in here, it is so cold. Please bring help,

I might die tomorrow.

Please send me an angel.
please send me an angel.
