I like being alone
I hate being lonely

I like being quiet
I hate to not be heard

I like being a wallflower
I hate not being seen

I like being alive
But god, oh god
I hate this life
My thoughts. Opinions would be great! Editing suggestions are welcomed too!

Regret

The taste of regret
Fills my mouth
As your name and face
Pop into my head

Because I don't know why
I ever thought
You could be different
Or you could be
Good for me.

maybe I'll write a poem today
I've usually got something to say,
"it's a bottle of gin"
or "it's the tip of a pin"

but maybe today
I don't have something to say
nothing to share
no forced care

I don't have something to say
maybe next tuesday
Dear society,

I have no "thigh gap"
nor any desire to wear makeup,
but I am still as beautiful
as the cover model on the
Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition.

Make sure to include me in the next issue.

Sincerely,
Wistful Wanderer

I wish words could express
The way my heart is aching
But this pain is like no other
My soul is slowly breaking

You snuck your way into my life
And left your heavy mark
How can I move on past
With this gaping wound, so dark?

You may as well have inked my skin
For there’s no chance I’ll forget
The emotions you’ve awakened inside
That now **** me with regret
Instead of teaching religious differences
we must teach love,
for every religion on our entire planet
bonds through acts of love.

It doesn't matter whether you are a
Muslim or Christian
Pagan or Atheist
Agnostic or Buddhist.

Love is paramount and universal.

Without it, we would not be living.

The sun goes down over the horizon,
and with it,
our aspirations.

I said;*
let me
take my
hair down
for you, let
me slip my
sweater off,
let me leave the
doors all open
and leave the
lights all on
