Nosedive

When the plane seems like it's nosediving
And you can't gain control
When the future worries you
Because of the past
Just shrug and smile and know
That few as they are,
There are people that truly care

Sometimes, you have to shake your head and say "***** it." Divert your attention to something new and you'll find something precious.

Part of Me

Part of me is an angsty teenage girl
Who wants to get ****** up and smoke cigarettes
And drive late at night, wearing dark clothing
Part of me is a vibrant young woman
Who wants to paint pictures of the sun
Wear rainbow bandanas and smile all the time
It all just depends on the circumstance

I drew specimens carrying XY chromosomes as sharp, angular.

But really you're this
gorgeous, warm, breathing breadth of muscle,
tendons & bones.

How sad it is to remember the sick feeling you got
When you felt their hand in places it shouldn't have gone
And you didn't have the heart to say no louder

Hurting Others

There is also a moment when you realize they are not the one being hurt by others
The only thing hurting them was themselves
Whereas with you, well, all along, they were the one hurting you
The "you" is me

Only at that moment were my eyes hollow, empty
If you were to look inside you would have seen nothing
Only at that moment did I ever feel lifeless
No more
