Laughter licked the dying breeze
Loving dropped like falling leaves
Birds fly high as rivers freeze
Stealing warmth like lowly thieves
Better days the sun would shine
Mornings flared while wind bells chimed
Back when you were truly mine
Where our love was never timed
Living was our spineless plan
We’d sit together, hand in hand
Back before the end began
Delicately writing love letters in the sand
Wrote this based off the prompt:
"Write a poem including the words love letters in the sand"
i never seem
to be able to

to be able to
be
accepted

to be able to
belong

but
fitting in
is

different than
belonging


molding yourself
Into the
neatly
labelled
boxes
life sets out for us

to fit in


becoming what people want from you

hiding your
true self.
hiding behind a mask

hiding yourself

fitting in.
lil one today

I read a book
filled to the brim
with love between lovers
about how she saw him

he held her hand
and rubbed her back
then kissed her forehead
so gently
so sweetly

and i realized
no one will do that with me
willingly

i have too much acne
lol i was reading and this thought popped into my head

don't hold yourself that way
to keep this pain at bay
for as they always say
"its okay to not be okay"
just remember to hide it away
and make pretend, you'll play
then paint away the gray
hide in a hidden ashtray
just to make it through today
so remember, its okay to not be okay
that's what they always say
so long as it's not actually that way
people always say "its okay to not be okay"
but then people are genuinely not okay and suddenly there's just no support
like what?
