I want to love hot pockets so much The pizza ones, the Philly cheese steak ones I want to think they are so delicious Sometimes they are if you are lifted With forty-five minutes to spare with an air frier I punish myself with microwaved hot pockets To splurge lava into my mouth Fully aware of the carnage that is about to ensue I love hot pockets.

I'm a fool to be typing this out. I know you're doing good without me. I know you're taking all the anger out at the gym. I think I saw you drive past me last night. Or so I wished. I hope you're well. I hope your dreams seem closer now. I hope you're at peace, Knowing that you don't have one crazy girl to be forced to text or call every day. At peace with your phone switched off, focusing on your work how you said things would be if I hadn't walked into your life. I've typed this out, Knowing I can't hit the send button. Knowing I'm going to delete this anyways. I'll always love you. I stopped hoping to stop loving you. I love you still. And always will.

The hard pitter patter on the roof as it wets the outside. The clouds emptying their thoughts down the drain into a liquid. The liquid of feeling. Often said to have no beauty. Such horrors come from the liquid of feeling. Though moments of home and peace can be found. Those are the moments i look for. The ones that go unnoticed by most the beautiful moments. the moments of high

Rain
i was lying with my head on your chest, listening to your heartbeat, when i was overwhelmed by sadness. a sadness so deep i could feel it cutting through me. a sadness so strong that i felt like i was suffocating. i balled a fist with your shirt, holding tightly in case you slipped away; you, the last thing that i have to keep me sane.

Swimming away from me. In a sea of broken promises, endless hurt, blood and black and blue. Turn the key and lock the door, throw it to the floor. Cry some more. Towards the open ocean, towards the choice you’ve chosen. I’ll never find you, not here, not there. And I’ve nothing left to give but a bitter grin. I’ll find the color jade and make it in my own way. Sharp and jagged edge to deter anyone else from half-assed attempts to sew the pieces back together and make me whole again

the things i would do
The world is a beautiful place and I want to be beautiful too although there is nothing I can do to change my face lack of grace or slow my pace I know not my place in this world I am but a girl and what is one among many is there meaning? how am I supposed to find any well maybe I can just not in this person I am but I see it all around me in each soul every body I meet all incomplete pieces of a puzzle that I'll never fully see why can't I just let it be push these questions aside and live my life content with being swept along the tide why can't I look past all the strife what can I do to stop it can I rearrange make a change people look at you strange when you see a different picture this is never what I  pictured when I was growing up how can our world be so corrupt? everyone stuck in their ways lost in a daze so they remain the same in kindergarten I sat and looked up as my teacher told me the news could it be true? 9/11 war on "terror" they were trying to scare us just a bunch of cover ups none of my friends seem to give a **** maybe I care too much or not enough I want to change reality how can I hold onto my sanity if I continue to do nothing Tell me where do I start with my hands or with my heart everything I know has been torn apart where do I start?
