Seeing

...I have weird eyes. 
Like wires that connect. 
Blinking at the same time as being painful. 
Eating too much.
With weird, starving eyes. 
Eyelashes gripping. 
Pupils which are tingling. 
Eyes ev...

...I cracked on the central air-conditioning on Juneteenth 2025...
the first time this summer,
when martyrdom got chucked aside for cold comfort.

Joe lisa

...Joe lisa said, she wanted to forgive
 and forget her pain.

 she had to pay the price for trying.

She was living on the edge,

My Decrepit Deserted Home

"Though old and dilapidated, one's dear home can never be empty. It will be full of memories- sweet and sour- a snapshot out of time that talks aloud of happy memories. Even amid the hovering gloom...

At What Cost

...My parents didn’t teach me love—
I learned it from the silence.

My mother never asked
why my eyes were red.
She looked,
but never really saw.

My father only noticed me
when I made a mistak...

She Never Knew Love

...she never knew love
served soft upon silver plates
so she learned to taste it
in sharp rusted fates

fingers traced promises
carved into skin
a hunger for warmth

This burden

...#This_burden
Heavy walls of endurance crumbles on me.
On my last kick of a dying horse.
I don't want to be a statistic,

Not immune to pain and hurt.

It's...

The life

...I loved when I was so empty.
Every day felt like it was caving.
Lost in hope, only to be praying. 
Strength was the pain of many wars.
Tears cried feeling drained. 
Never kept hurting only picke...

Avon by the Sea

...I didn't pull my weight
The boss was really sore

I have been waiting at the gate but you did not come and it’s getting late. A peculiar feeling is boiling in my gut and it leave a terrible...

The Routine

TIGHT SPACE
