empty seas
i can't breathe
there's a crushing weight on my chest
pushing and squeezing all the life out of me

i feel so utterly alone and helpless
desperately trying to feel okay
be okay
but it's so hard
when i'm so alone
so alone
im so tired
i have so much homework to do but i can’t stop doing things that are familiar and easy

the sea looked so endless.
i woke up seeing blue hues.
it was early and quiet,
these moments made me feel like the entire world was asleep,
even the earth herself.

empty seas
the anger
 Jan 2019 zb
empty seas
the anger
pulsed
pushed
through the air

pushed
pulled
at my head

i could not leave
could not shut
it out
could not feel
fine
can’t be calm

the anger
it pulls
wraps its arms
around me
pulls itself
into that empty place
above my stomach
in my ribcage
it was them
and now
is me

they put
the anger there
placed it
by the force
of the looks
the words
the tears
the anger is
all around
you
are not
you
are never
you
will never be
you

anxiety is
not just fear
it is
primal
the rage
the fear
it wraps itself
in you
and you can only
channel it
inwards
you can only
self destruct

anxiety and anger
are two sides
of the same coin
and i
flip
between
the two
until
i stop
being
anything
at all
i flip
and i flip
somedays
it seems like
the only thing
i do

empty seas
the sunlight caresses her face
her smile shines with the light of all the stars

the wind slides through her hair
she laughs as it gets in her eyes

it's as if nature is trying to touch her
wrap its hands around her curves and claim her
as its own

she’s beautiful
and i have not met her yet
but i dream
and i wait

I want a girl/boyfriend, but I’m so scared I’ll ***** it up
also it’s not like anyone would ever want to date me so i guess I don’t have to worry that much about whether or not I’ll mess it up

empty seas
i’ve spent
years
of my life
convincing
myself
i’m not
a monster

this
will
not
stop.

i deserve
to be happy

words hurt me
they will not change me
i grow stronger
lies do not cut
as much as they used to

empty seas
the dream
 Jan 2019 zb
empty seas
he
held my hand
and kissed me
in the forest
as sun dappled
leaves swayed
around us

he
hugged me
as i cried
asked questions
understood
and most of all
was kind

he
was the
summer sun
winter snow
autumn leaves
spring flowers
everything lovely
in the world
together

we only had
a few hours
together but
the dream
felt like forever
so wonderful
and so real
i woke up last night
yearning
for the boy
i lost

empty seas
the world
is so much
bigger
than i
have been told

one person
was never
my world

one town
is not
my world

my world
is the universe
anything
and everything
i can get
my hands on
the world is so big and beautiful
