Words came out
in mind and soul,
they aren't out of
nowhere.
It is an interpretation
of belonging.

Our words
are mind's guide
to a wandering soul.

I fell in love with the way you touched me without using your hands,
The way your name played in my head like a song on repeat,
I fell in love with the way you consumed me.
I fell in love with your entire being.
The scars and the flaws.
The imperfections and the chaos.
The invulnerability and insecurity
I fell in love with you.

I never thought I'd matter
To anyone

Until you
Came along

And changed my perspective
Of the universe

You made me feel
Like I matter

And I'm grateful
For you.

Scream
Scream
Mouth so wide
The corners of my mouth
Begin to tear
Fingers tangled in my hair
pulling, no care
Hitting my head
off my tears it fed
i wish I was asleep instead.

they won’t miss me
she whispers as she pours
another pill in her hand

they won’t miss me
he mutters as he ties the
knot of the rope that will
be his end

they won’t miss me
she laughs ironically as
she loads the gun

they won’t miss me
he sighs as he picks up
the knife

i wish it didn’t have to be like this
they all cry

but now
it’s too late
the pills gone
the rope knotted
the gun loaded
and
the knife stained.

I lived two lives once
I had two souls
I had two hearts
I had two heads
I had two brains
I had two minds
I served out each mind
All I wanted was to have a free life
The two heads always made me bad hearted
And I also served them too
One soul was dark
So I served it out to the devil
The angel with light remained with it's
The bad heart I placed it into a lonely beast
And now she is living eternity
Now I'm lost in the midst of thoughts
My lonely mind can't forget
This is so gracious
