so dry
am i
i lie
in sand
i wait
for water
that will
never
come by

so dry
i cry
but my
tears
wash
away
into
nothing

so dry
i want
to die
so i
say
good
bye

I want to be there
When you let your hair down,
And when you talk about your day:
Every person that got under your skin.

I want to see the kinks and curls
Each golden wave and blue pool—
The ones that draw me in.
And the curve of your perfect smile

I want to mend the
Broken and bent emotions
That you’ll never want to share.
But maybe after my begging your mind will change.

With the position I’m in, I’ll never be seen,
I’m a name and a face constantly in the crowd.
I can barely yell for you and cheer you on,
Yet somehow I still wish to be there.

When you let your hair down.
but would you want me to be there?

motivation is
inspiration
in movement

they tell us we aren't enough
they tell us that we're outcasts
waiting for a death sentence
using our own hands.

but our scars tell a story
a story we survived
a story no one else knows
except you and I.

put down those razors
you can fight this
you can heal
put down that alcohol
you can overcome
and conquer your sadness
put down those drugs
you can break it
and live to see another sunrise

put down your pens
you're done writing this chapter
tell your story to someone else
your story of survival

don't worry love,
you're gonna shine one day.
maybe it won't be for long
and maybe it won't be that bright
but my love,
you're gonna shine one day.

pointed toes
rounded hands
is their definition

but broken bones
and tears sacrificed
for someone else
is mine

you added me to your life
but subtracted yourself from me.

we multiplied our love
but you divided it between me and her.

our force grew less and less
because our acceleration died.

newton's laws no longer applied to us
because we became unequal opposite reactions
to each other.
math and physics people will understand
