Blind Hearts ©
ashley marlow Aug 2020
You loved her in the womb,
Until you saw her face,
Then you decided she was an ugly baby,
You loved the story until you saw the person,
Then you decided you don’t believe them,
Because of their Race.
You wanted them teaching your children,
Until you saw their sexuality,
Their appearance their beliefs their eyes.
You loved them until you saw who they love
And how they choose who and how to love,
Then you decided they weren’t worth hearing.

You decided that they Are crazy.
You decided that they belong in a box,
Because we know “how to deal with people like them
How to fix people like them”.
But what you don’t do is listen.
You are so quick to change your opinion,
When you judge with your eyes.

You are so quick to tell call them worthless,
And to say, “YOU’RE FIRED”,
For believing something you didn’t.
You are so quick to ostracize them, to hate them,
To say that something is wrong with them.
Because you judge with your Eyes,
And forgot your heart.

I'm so sick of my brian, I just want it to be normal.
I'm never going to be normal,
I'm never going to be accepted because of it.
Adhd has ruined my brain,
and continues to embarrass me daily.  
I'm too hyper when not on meds for it,
And too quite and calm when I am on meds.
There's no in between and I'm sick of it,
I want it to leave

college theatre
ashley marlow Oct 2015
I submitted for an audition today,
my nerves are all on edge.
I know this is the only way,
but what if i dont have the competitive edge?
Lots of people
from everywhere
seeking just a chance,
but when i close my eyes, i think i have a chance.
monologues, lines, all day long.
is this the right one? Oh i hope that im not wrong.
the days count down, the nerves are frayed,
i dont know what to say.
my styomach is tied in knots, its been like this everyday.





and just when i think i dont have a chance...
i get accepted.
im about to audition for my 1st choice college in nyc and this is somethingf i wrote in theatre class one day.,
