This a personal blog full of my original poetry. My reoccurring themes are commonly about depression, anxiety, grief and other controversial topics. Within each of my poems, I allow myself to become vulnerable while expressing personal experiences or ones of my friends or family.
i’ve grown out of my body,
and into my mind.
i craft my disguise
with the words i refine.
i watch the world deteriorate
from my window.
and make a silent vow
to keep moving forward.
a promise to never melt.
no longer weaving into
coherence.
the words evade my
fingertips.
i would like to write
something beautiful but,
i am currently debris.
an entanglement
of wordless feelings
and exhausted thoughts.
perhaps tomorrow,
i will find the right clarity.
When the ink-stained pages
paint a familiar reflection
i remember why
we must continue to write
-outlook
when i feel lost i look to the stars. i feel home among them. amongst the things that seem the most unknown. transparency. born in delicate layers of hope. the beauty they bleed. farewells whispered in the most majestic ways. blowing themselves out of proportion. trying to feel plausible.
from a blood root to a solanum,
she sways both ways
a mere shadow of her former self.
corridors of hopelessness,
now for your amusement.
the deflation of lungs, and
the crawling of your skin.
festering,
silence creeps into her bones.
suffocating from swallowed screams
how can i run from my mind,
but drown in simplicity.
Not So Simple
