Glass Girl
 Dec 2017 courtney

A girl in a snow globe, delights in her world,
she watches, enchanted, as the snow falls down,
it drifts and glides and swirls around
before finally landing upon the ground.
until one day she notices the glass,
and she understands (realizes)  the prison at last.
I may turn this into a longer poem or a short story.

I am sinking, yet I don't have a ship to sink
I'm drowning, yet I do not have lungs to breath
I'm alone, yet I know I am loved
I love, yet I feel so numb
I'm mute, yet I can't stop talking
I'm talking, yet I have no voice
I have no voice, yet still you hear
I don't deserve you, yet you won't leave
You won't leave, yet I still fear.
Why is it like this?
I love you. And I know you love me..
So why can't we bask in peaceful simplicity?
Why must it be muddled with muck?
Why do I feel so stuck?
I should be happy.
I should be proud.
Yet I'm sitting here,
And this silence is way to loud.
"Crawling in the dark for you
Do you Burn amoung stars for me?"

a
anxiety
what a concept to grasp
it eats you alive
like a cancerous cell
trying to wear away at your bravery

it consumes you
suffocates you until you no longer are able
to gasp for air
wrote this during school. Having anxiety is a very heavy burden for me. It suffocates me at the worst times. Hope you all enjoyed this piece :)

War Cry
 Dec 2017 courtney

We are not poets.
Nor are we artists.
         We are the bleeding hearts
                                                   Daring to rebel.
Society cuts this world into careful little blocks.
Devided by cold cut stones forced to comply.
And yet,
             If you look a little closer, you will notice,
                  Not us, for you will never see our face
   But you will see our fragments.
             The pieces of us we leave behind for you
                Scattered among these cold stone walls
Words we have carved into the stone
             With our own ****** nails.
                              Proof that we exsist.
                                               Proof that you can to.
So here we are,
                    Strings of letters
                                       And scattered lines,
                                 All echoing the same war cry.
                          “We Are Here.”
                                                    "Are You?"

All I wanted was a rose
A reason
why you loved me on every red petal
A strong
Green stem to show the strength of our bond

But in reality
The rose died
The petals wilted and faded
and the stem went hard...

Much like your love for me

kyss
whispers
follow me everywhere
but i can't seem to see
where they're coming from

little do i know
they're coming from my own head

that feeling of unease
that comes with them

inescapable

trapped
trying to drown them out
but still they linger

stuck
in my mind
with the voices

thoughts
of what it would be like
if i
if i...

died

She’s a dead rose,

A beautiful flower withered and grey.

The air she gave off was once fresh,

A scent like summer,

A smile like lemonade,

Now her ashes cover the floor,

Like a broken dream, there they stay.

The sun will carry with the day,

A moon outshines the night,

Stars fight for the sky,

A story with every light.
