Frank This is A Pre-Letter
Sarah Locklin Oct 2022
You have tasked me with writing a letter but the words escape me.
I know not how to write the way your eyes look into my soul.
I fear that I will never know to describe how your embrace feels.
Words on paper that will be folded into an envelope.
They seem not to do your love justice.
We speak of the future and marriage and children.
Yet I know nothing about how to please you like a wife.
I am learning with you.
My love.
My teacher.
My future.

Wo De Ai
Sarah Locklin Sep 2022
Soft. He is so soft
Not to the touch. I have not yet felt his skin.
Sweet. He is so sweet.
His words are so kind and keep me happy.
His. I am his.
For some reason I feel drawn to him.
Ambitious. He has ambitions.
He sees a future to be had with me.
Precious. He is precious.
Father of a daughter and a good one it seems.
Green. He is green.
Clean and pure and everything I need.
Frank. He is Frank.
Frankly I think this man is a good thing.
I get nervous when we talk. He makes me blush alot.

Nervous White Guy
Sarah Locklin Sep 2022
He makes me blush and I get nervous
He talks sweet like honey and caramel
A white guy that gets me red and shy
I really like talking to this
unnerving

Beauty in her sting

Death to her lonely self does she bring

She’s a witch, she’s a killer with looks that…. Oops that’s wrong, I’ll try again
She’s a witch, she’s a….
I lost my train of thought
“Would you like some gum?”
I’ll try again next time

Before I Forget Me: A Haiku
Sarah Locklin Mar 2022
I’m dreaming in red
White tigers and jade crystals
My heritage calls
I did not write this, the wonderful Adreishka wrote it based on some things I told her about my life

Petal Petal
Sarah Locklin Feb 2022
She’s beautiful, the finest rose in the garden. Her hands soft as silk. Her hair as fair as her skin. Those thorns will get you though. So be careful where you pick her. She’ll ***** until you bleed.

Sarah Locklin Feb 2022
He thinks I’m silly I just know it! A crazy chick with nothing but strings attached. I’m so much more I promise!

I’m so much more

Hearts that aren’t compatible
He rejects her, hard

Who is Me?
Sarah Locklin Feb 2022
Follow my instincts. Just write from the heart. It should be easy enough. Or could I be dead wrong?
I’m still finding my style. My way in this world. Can you forgive this naïve young girl?

Her: A Haiku
Sarah Locklin Feb 2022
His words are like knives
He unveils the truth within
Her identity
Usually I’m a tough nut to crack, but he seems to get me. Also really thinking haikus are my favorite now. I wonder if I could do multiple haikus back to back to make a longer poem

Unraveled: A Haiku
Sarah Locklin Feb 2022

His words echo in her head

Dead
Sarah Locklin Mar 2021
I’m beyond broken inside. I know what I have to do to end it all. But I don’t think I have the strength to do it. I need guidance. A helping hand. Someone please help me search for an easy way out.

I’m Good Enough
Sarah Locklin Oct 2020
It’s okay not to be okay, but it’s not okay to wonder if you’re good enough for someone.
I don’t need you.
Sarah Locklin Oct 2020
The path of enlightenment is nearing.


Your worldly possessions are useless.
For when you step into the grave it is but you and you alone.
The quicker you come to this realization then I shall take you to Nirvana and light your way.

Bring Out the Candles
Sarah Locklin Sep 2020
My birthday is in two weeks and I’m just waiting for the right moment;
You know that moment when you lean over and blow away the flames on your cake that you don’t even like because it has a layer of fruit on the middle?
When that measly second gives you a chance to wish your life away because every other method you’ve tried hasn’t worked.

So bring out the candles. Let me blow out the flames so that hopefully my flame burns out too.

True Identity
Sarah Locklin Sep 2020
I made this pretending to be someone I am not but today I show my true colors. Sarah. My name is Sarah. I'm not interesting, I just like to wear other people's faces because it helps me to escape.
