Shaylie Dec 2021
Tired of being used
For parts to fill
Yourself with
Use up until
You feel whole
Taking pieces of me
Taking pieces of me
Empty
Every time you leave me
Shaylie Dec 2021
Woman
Mother
Daughter
Wife

Pictures play
For each word
A box is created
Without hesitation

Jam yourself in it
Make them all smile
Shaylie Nov 2021
And no I won’t settle
Settle for some boy
Promising the moon and stars
Only to show up
Smelling like alcohol
with
Tin foil ***** and cardboard pieces
In hand

I deserve worship
Worship me
Fall down to your knees
I want someone thirsty to
Taste me

I am made up of the
Mountains and oceans
Dark skies and pastel summer days
I won’t settle
For some
Boy
Shaylie Nov 2021
And if you aren’t careful
Love will eat you up
Shaylie Nov 2021
Sometimes
I forget
I forget who I am

What I want
What I like
Shaylie Sep 2021
I haven’t had a hug
In so long
I just want someone
Warm
To embrace me
Fill me up
I’m lonely
Shaylie Sep 2021
Nevermind
I take it all back
