Colors.

They’ll paint pictures of you without knowing your true colors.
I’ve dealt with this my whole life but it’s never effected me like it has now.
No matter what, I feel like I will always be misunderstood/misjudged/mislabeled.
Sorry this isn’t even poetry.

fast forward to time
where we are falling in love
without breaking hearts

i want to be a flower
to only rely
on few sources

and be loved by many
but there will be only
one who picks me

off of the ground and
smells my sweet scent
and falls in love

he will take me home
and put me in a lovely
vase with plenty of water

i have been that flower
i have been picked
someone has already fallen
in love with me

he has taken me home
and has given me
a lovely life

he's the all water
and light i need
i am that flower

tired

i thought being busy
would be good for me
instead
it drains me
wrings me out and hangs me to dry
on a hot sunny day
and then comes along stress
to think i could handle it
words cannot express
how wrong i was

i love to write
but i honestly never have the time
im sick
im constantly told to take more care of myself
but then i cant
you know when you have to balance everything?
family
friends
school
your relationship
but most importantly
yourself

i never have time to write
because i never have time for myself
writing is the butter to my egg roll
the strawberry jelly to my crunchy peanut butter
on whole wheat bread
keep the crust

honestly!
i need to find more ways on how to care for myself
everyday
four different pills
just to keep it contained
why is it so hard?
i know there are easier ways
to get rid of it
but i dont want to risk
things that make me happy
for the thing killing me from inside

its hard, you know?
academically wise
i guess i can call myself average
the type of student who takes down notes
studies for a test last minute
almost failing
but still somehow
magically holding on

i told you i would write
no matter how tired i get
no matter how stressed i am
i will move everything to be able to do the things i love
to be able to be who i want to be with
to be able to be


myself
im stuck this way
i love reading
writing
painting
sharing my life online
sharing my thoughts
the thoughts i think matter
at least

i told you

i like you
i like you like i like the rain
i like you like i like music
can we dance together?
can you give my heart a little electricity?
bring me back to life please
longing
ive been longing for someone for so long
you dont know
but i can wait for you
just like i can wait for season 4 of rick and morty
just like i can wait for the water for my coffee to heat up
i can wait for you
i can wait for when you have time for love
ill be here for you
ill always be here for you
i like you
