This is…
This is the part when I enjoy my life, It seems as if a coin was flipped. This is the part when I take over the script. The moment that my narrative is not In the hands of anyone else, Not filled with proclamations To narcissism, No longer defined by any Definition synonymous To unwell. …

Stubborn Student
You stubborn student, listen to me! 1 + 1 will never equal 3. The reason why you can’t do math Is because you’re trying to use equations And formulas that don’t exist. Your studious strength Has so much potential, But you can’t half-ass apply Knowledge while claiming credentials. You sly, shifty sideline gazer, Stop dividing…

Constant ♾️
Consistent as the sky is a permanent hue, Constantly searching for something to do. Consistent in spontaneity, Constantly seeking metamorphosis, Consistent in confusion, Constantly seeking bliss. Consistent in twiddling thumbs, Constantly on the run, Consistent in switching roles, Constantly rotating short-lived titles, that was fun. Consistent candid critiques of self, Constantly chipping away ‘til nothing…

It says “Live What You Love”
Do you believe in fate/destiny? No control, no keys to the gate Passionate prayers for forgiveness, requests for a clean slate. I’ll work my ass off, I’ll succeed in the end, Fate beyond my will, may destiny be a friend? I can do what I can do. I can be patient. I can wait.

What’s she doin?
Without a care in the world That odd ass girl Sat on her patio Swaying from side to side the other day. Eyes red and puffy in that obvious way, She had been crying or something. Listen, that odd ass girl, That odd ass girl plays her music And gazes towards the sun, Walks that…

54 Miles til Empty
Message Delivered. F**k. Can’t unsend. It’s been viewed, maybe I can still delete it. Post. Delete. Stupid social media measuring my worth again. Recreate. Edit. Post. Ah, there we go. Likes, laughs and little hearts. Good, that wasn’t too deep to post there. Spoken words cannot be retracted. Is it true? Are words spells? Can…

“An Ode to the Narcissist” Oh narcissist, I hate you because I cannot hate you. No contact I retract For it’s true- I’m kinda like a reflection of you. Narcissist walk Narcissist talk The mask, When is it on again? Because maybe just maybe The empathy in me, Very childlike, Maybe what I see in…
