eat sleep do the dishes
wake to it again and a
-gain may cross your-
way
subtle mistakes which
flake off like pie crust
stirring is becoming a
new habit for when I
want to release some
passion or relieve my
stresses within limits
without consequence
away
**** goes grief anger
pain indeed relieving
inhaling exhaling
breathing
eating

we can't erase what is already on a canvas
but we can always paint over it
it seems as though someone is passing around info about me getting in trouble with the law over seven years ago. i am not proud of it, but i own my actions. i paid my debt by serving six months in jail, as well as taking a good beating for it. the past paints the future, and experiences change our lives. i am a different person now, and i can't dwell on the past. if others want to, that's fine.

poetry doesn't need to be perfect
work on yourself and it will work you

tired of fighting
glass words
leave me shattered

kisses and touches
that I once thought mattered
rebuild me
with your broken wings
let me curl your feathers
so when you leave
you're in circles
still thinking of me

blinking
squinting
lost in the ride
afraid of what's ahead
a suicidal girl
who already feels like she is dead
eating bread
staying home alone
letting the music play
and the TV drone

**** instead of *** today
******* the thoughts away
legs have never been an open gate
although she doesn't make you wait

you're special
shut up
get inside
eat a home cooked meal
and ******* love yourself

*******
love
yourself
or at least try
