I stumbled upon you
Like a child
that finds a pretty stone

Bewildered by your presence
I sat and admired
Counting your cracks
Caressing what makes you glitter

You stood infront of me
Bold and beautiful
Like nothing I'd ever seen

And as you gave me your attention
I think I misconstrued your intentions

I wanted to put you in my pocket
But you said no

So there you sit
Perfectly unpolished
A love

I can only visit

Peace within
I push through closed doors
They gather everything possible
To make something
For the goal is he be nothing
I yearn for it

Scrambling through life
I want something
To reach potential
A nightmare for them
Power they have
I shall not argue
Fill my yearn

They Know my weaknesses
They attack daily
I resist only for so long
I am stronger
They suppress my power
Where is my power
Wrong path i search

Peace within
I yearn for it
The table is prepared
They watch as i ascend
Oh stop me they can

Hallo Power
I have been looking for you
This gravel road is smoother with you
Help me stay with you

They can't stop me
Peace have been earned
I hold it close
Oh please stay with me
Push through the pain. The hate. The trouble. But mostly yearn for peace.  For when you are at peace all things fall into place.

Was it easy was it hard
For our friendship to discard
Did you have to was it needed
When our friendship you conceded
Did you smile or did you cry
Ghosting me with no goodbye
Did you laugh or did it hurt
When you left with no alert
Do You wonder do you care
Leaving me beyond repair
Another poem written to help deal with being ghosted by a friend

Are you today's date?
'Cause you're 10/10
And you cut yourself 10 times
On your left wrist today.
i self-harmed yesterday after almost 3 months clean. i don't feel good.

When I was younger, I wrote about
love and tranquility, no wonder cause
I felt so un-wrung and free. But over the
years you will see, a different pattern
of my thoughts and whats real to me, through
each one of these soliloquies. feels like I have
no one around to care for me. Getting really tired
of all this negativity. Self-doubt and loathing
unfortunately has taken its toll on me.
my mind has been polluted and diluted so much so,
leaving the past behind has no real possibility

with cracked lips
and blue fingers
i rewrite the words i said to myself when you didn’t have the mouth to say them
Unfasten the mask,
The smile,
That hides the truth
And breathe in

Show the world
You are working
Towards something that
Could take a lifetime

And remember,
Tears, the truth, and falling
Are nothing to be afraid of
