reality

i am
trapped
in a moment
where all i
can do
is stare
until the
scene
blurs together --
not that my
reality
had really been
clear
before.

my struggle with depression

care

you saw my
panic
as a burden
but you should be
scared
when my panic
ceases

stage kiss

and all those times
you kissed me
you were just
putting your
thumb
over my
lips

power

a fawn's
eyes
can be much more
powerful
than a buck's
antlers

time

the cuts
fade to scars
quickly
but the scars
remain
indefinitely

i never asked you
to start a war
for me
but you could
at least
be my shield
when my walls
come crashing down

SPACE

my emotions
are scattered like
stars
creating tiny
nebulas
and universes of their
own
within me

i am not
a person
i am an
endless galaxy
of feeling
