Red were the roses, the ones I left on your casket,
Orange were the leaves, the ones in your tree,
Yellow were the bruises, the ones that covered you head-to-toe,
Green were the stains, the ones left on the hems of your jeans,
Blue were your lips, the day you were found in your noose,
Indigo was the night sky, that night that you died,
Violet was that bruise, the one you wore around your neck

It's bad manners
        before others to sigh
        to them it matters
       not--whether you live or die

I didn't want to be mature for my age.
I wanted to be a kid.

What is the use of such life where you have no one to talk to.

Are you desperate to be right all of the time?
How much better at day's end to be found kind!

The poetry isn’t in all these words —
It’s in knowing I survived them.
Holy smokes! Thank you everyone for all of the support! I don’t come here too often so I did not expect this; what a beautiful surprise ♥️

A chance encounter
a snapshot in time
life's random moments
are simply sublime

A Mess of Words
In pursuit

          of perfection,

Seldom have I

          also seen success.
striving for perfection 10w

My tears are
saltier than the ocean’s

My heart is
heavier than Sisyphus’ rock

My secrets
that I buried beneath my
skin has turned into scars

My body is
but a graveyard
