the black rose

she’s too strong,
she’s too much,
she’s too tough to love.

she’s too hard,
she’s too broken,
she’s not enough.

she’s imperfect,
she’s wild,
she’s lost in the wind.
she’s insane,
sending signs of chaos from within.

Love, Lost and Doubt

Love, Lost and Doubt

i was drowning in love
        lost in your sight
        the suffocation was
        questionably satisfying

i felt:
        safe.

        calm.

        new.

but in this newfound love,
        emerged a feeling of doubt

"are you the one?"

A poem I wrote back in 9th grade.

Dove

Was I not enough for you?
I told you I was in love,
But you flew away like a dove.

You

You think I’m a fool,
Just because you're so cool,
Then I’m not for you.
