I strove with none, for none was worth my strife.
Nature I loved and, next to Nature, Art:
I warm'd both hands before the fire of life;
It sinks, and I am ready to depart.
You smiled, you spoke, and I believed,
By every word and smile deceived.
Another man would hope no more;
Nor hope I what I hoped before:
But let not this last wish be vain;
Deceive, deceive me once again!
Nomadic poet Jul 2021
Sometimes i wonder if you still come to sit and read me

If so
I watch every sunset
I imagine
Bryce is here and
Im pregnant still
Just us on the rocky stubby driveway
Under one of the most beautiful skys ive ever seen...

No ones topped you.

I'm very ugly
So, don't try to convince me that
I'm a very beautiful person
Because at the end of the day,
I hate myself in every single way
I'm not going to lie to myself by saying
There's beauty inside of me that matters
So rest assured, I'll remind myself
That I'm a worthless, terrible person
And nothing you say will make me believe
That i still deserve love
Because no matter what,
I'm not good enough to be loved
And I'm in no position to believe that
Beauty doesn't exist within me
Because whenever I look in the mirror, I always think
Am I as ugly as people say?

(Now read bottom up)
Not mine but a beautiful piece of art

Now im just saying
For me
Lifes always felt like a rollercoaster
Never some race
Somethings always fast pace
Yet never quiet your pace
Begging for nonexsitent closure
Always maintaining composure
Written in everyones face
Heres to maybe never finding my place
Perhaps i am my fate's owner

I puked the cosmos
Dont tell me how a goddess must act
Dont try to speak to me like your intact
I just wanna float through space

Stuck in a fish bowl
How funny
I thought i was lost
Whole time
Im just trapped
