you make me feel uncomfortable in the best way because there are butterflies in every part of me and only you can set them free and I can't really explain what you do to my heart except that it goes from oh hey how you doing to OH HEY ASDFGHJKL HOW YOU DOING in less than 2.5 seconds and I don't really know how I feel about you, all that I know is that I feel everything about you and there are a thousand and one reasons why you shouldn't fall in love with me but I hope that you ignore every single one.

I write my poetry
about the world around
me and the people too.
But when he comes to
mind the words don't
fall into place like I love
the way they do.
The thoughts come slow
and the words even slower.
He's on my mind and
nothing works. My brain
shuts down, my stomach
tightens, my feet go numb.
When he's on my mind.

I hate this feeling not
knowing what to write,
he's on my mind and I
cant get him out.
Why cant I do this!
It's not hard to write!
Love poems are easy!
So why does this hurt?
Nope!
I cant do this,
he's on my mind
and I cant get him out

Words clouded me
What was going on
The Earth fell and
Nothing was left
I was alone on the
Earth. It was dark
And gloomy like
Nothing I'd seen.
The trees were dead
And the rivers full of dried
Blood. The lone cloud
Was dark, the sun shone
But everything was dark.
Noises came from all
Around but I was alone.
The voices louder as I
Walked towards them
And all at once it was quiet
And it was clear.

-H.R.

People walking all around me
"I'm trapped"
They bump and push me
"I'm not here"
Everyone rushes as I stand
Staring
Staring at the lives and
Staring at the nothing
"I'm lonely"
And when the shakes begin
The words "Are you okay?"
Crash my world around me
The shaking doesn't stop
Even as the hand is on my shoulder
Their eyes pierce through my thoughts
Staring
Staring at me that one in the hallway
The waves pile as they repeat
"Are you okay?"
Maybe louder I did not know
I wanted to run
Fast and far away
But I could not move
My legs were stuck
I fall to the ground
And close my eyes
Darkness surrounds me
This was my escape
The noise seems louder
And I think I hear my name
The darkness keeps me alive
In there
I don't see or think
Just
Nothing
There is nothing
No rushing and walking
Or people staring there is
Nothing
The
Darkness
Is
My
Escape
