Anxiety wraps
itself around me,

like a coat that
doesn’t fit me

like a lover that
doesn’t love me

like a fire that
doesn’t warm me
I rewrote this poem because it felt unfinished.

They finally told me why

I had been told to leave

Lost all of my friends in one day

Or so it seems

I had been seeking closure

For they didn't give a reason

But since I have it now

My heart is truly aching

For the truth of the matter

Simply turned out  to be

I was sent away

Due to the preferences

Of three

dear thoughts,

let me sleep
give me reprieve from your queries
about tomorrow and of the present
of what I have done
and on what I have planned
grant me rest from such importune
please plague me not
rather sway me with a soothing tune
let me rest
even for a minute or two
yours for as long as I breathe,

my biggest fear is you seeing me
the way i see myself—
the cracks beneath the surface,
the doubts i file away

i hide my flaws in shadows deep,
but what if you should find
the fractured mirror that i see
when i look inside my mind?
i really need to stop writing depressing poems
we hide grin,
Taking joy in loss, in pain, in sin.
Once tender spirits, now beasts of prey,
With ravenous hearts in disarray.

How far we've wandered, far we fell,
Their laughter blooms as virtue sighs.
Sadist jackals reign the dusk,
Sadist jackals haunts the place.




SADIST JACKAL
We live in a society full of sadist jackals
Congratulations, my friend!
We've come so far in this world…only to become sadist jackals.
Where death is no more a talk.

If only the characters I read about in books
Were actually alive



Oh how much more
Would I love this world
They just seem so much more-----relatable?
Whether this is because we are all the same and I get to see into their mind
Or because the authors are genius and they want me to love the characters
I don't know
I don't care
Bring them alive

People often ask
“What do you want to be?”
I know the answer they're looking for
Doctor, musician, cop
But ever since I was little
The answer in my head was always
“Happy”
Wake up in the morning happy for another day
When life isn't grey

When I go to the airport
I always wear a funny shirt
Because waiting in line is so dull
And I want to make someone smile
Maybe get a laugh
Maybe make a friend
Maybe make a day
Because why not?
