writing is "sub-par"
our words are "mediocre"
so just shut up please

it was christmas eve and you
had been drinking but you
still insisted on driving us all
home
you were swerving and it was
snowing and you said you
didn't care if you killed us all
that night
i was crying and screaming i
wanted to die and no one even
batted an eye
how could you do that to us?
fathers aren't supposed to ruin
christmas.

sente            ­     nces,
that                       form
rope,                         which
ties                               itself
into a                            noose.
Your                         ­     words
are also                    a rope,
that saves me from
drowning.
Sorry if you can't read it.
Kinda.
I stumble over stones half blind,
I cannot see God's grand design;
But one day I'll have a higher view
Of all His mosiac's radiant hue**

"Have some patience, look inside me." I said.
They won't hear our little whispers on the bed.
Sweaty palms, it's good to feel you against me.
Don't look at us now. Look at all that we could be.
Have some faith, love.
I'll be good enough, I swear.
I'm more than anger.
More than all the grief I wear.
If I could find myself I'd lose him all to you.
Bet I would break my heart if I were in your shoes.
I'll learn to love myself, but everything I do
grows dim as cigarettes when standing next to you.
This one girl who stomped my chest with stilettoes.
