the stars stuck to my ceiling
don’t glow in the dark anymore
unnamed Nov 2020
come with me and i’ll show you the stars
unnamed Jan 2021
with each page turn,
I wonder if it is me you love
or the book itself
unnamed Nov 2020
I don’t want it all to be about you anymore.

Her heart ached
for many reasons
But above all
It ached for you

Isn't it sad when flowers are picked?
To destroy a life for a short time of entertainment

i was made to love you
unnamed Nov 2020
is the Moon still in love with the Sun?

The snow had began to fall
And he could feel
The soft flakes
Kissing his red cheeks

we acted as though we held all the time in the world in the palms of our calloused hands
unnamed Mar 2021
of all the many shadows
i am merely one
unnamed Mar 2021

I always did like the spark
More than the fire

I’d like to kiss you
If that’s alright?

How terribly unfortunate

The sky isn’t the only thing crying tonight

Those who challenge the sun
Will only burn in its glory

Your soft hands held mine
And it felt
As if for one small moment
Everything was right
In the world

She wanted to stop you from hurting yourself like that,
But when she saw that fierce, oh-so-terribly
Valiant look in you piercing eyes,
All she could do was stand and stare

Trust me
Villains aren't all that bad
We just do bad things
For good causes

You have spent your life
Walking through the darkness
So you should be able
To spot even a speck of light
It's a shame
That you shut your eyes
War
unnamed Jul 2019
War
I loved him
I truly did
But a war
Was forming
And we were
On opposite
Sides.
unnamed Aug 2019
The only thing
Keeping me warm
On this chilly night

Is the fire in your eyes
And the passion
In your heart
unnamed Jun 2019
You see what you want to see
But we both know
I'm not who you want me to be
unnamed Apr 2019
Spin yourself a web of lies
And expect to get
Stuck in your own trap

They tell me I'm gaining too much weight
Maybe they're right
My shoulders do feel really heavy

“What does it feel,” she asks softly, “when you killed them?”

Nothing.

It feels like nothing, and then like everything all at once as soon as it’s done.

“Sometimes the blood gets on your hands,” she says in lieu of an explanation and meets her green eyes. “And sometimes, it feels like it won’t ever go away.”

He turned to me
Rustling the bedsheets
As moonlight cast

Upon his face
Illuminating
Tired eyes

His warm breath
Fanned across my face
Evenly spaced

And the suffocating
Silence
Was punctured

As he asked
In a drowsy whisper,
"What keeps you up at night?"

unnamed Aug 2019
When winter ends
And this icy heart
Of mine thaws
When the snow
Clears away
Will I find you waiting
Buried in ice
Watching for
The first breath
Of spring?
unnamed Nov 2019
We tend to think
That our body
Is who we are

But truly
We are simply
A brain

Being slowly
Suffocated
In this body
unnamed Jul 2019
You have not been yourself lately.
I don't know who I'm talking to.
Things have changed.
You have changed.
When did you.
Get so distant?
And so sad?
Were you.
This way.
All.
Along?
Was it all.
A lie, a mask.
To hide the pain?
I just want you to know.
That even though you're not you.
I am willing to take a chance and risk.
My heart being broken again and again.
If in the end it means that you will be okay.












Okay?
