Love isn't blind,
blind are those,
who never loved.
Lakiya Hawthorne May 2019
It’s to cluttered
Open the window to my soul
Let me be heard
Detox the negativity that surrounds me
Keeping me imprisoned in my own perception of life
Drowning me in grief
This poor soul is shattered
Making it impossible to fix
Somebody please open the **** window
My soul is crying for help
Air supply is frail
Making it hard to breathe
Maybe a little laughter is what i need
A smile that spreads like sea
Let the light seep through the crevices
Breaking me free
Lakiya Hawthorne May 2019
Silent Memories
Hush, do you hear that?
Its peace
Its freedom
It’s your sanity,
That little voice in your head that tells you to live wild without a care in the world
DO IT!
Hush, do you hear that?
The wind blissfully blowing
The waves as they calmly brush against the shore
The neighborhood ice-cream truck,
That’s your childhood, your hair wild and your feet bare on the pavement in the complex
The laughter
The joy
Just take a deep breath and
Hush

— The End —
