Today in EnglishToday in english we had a free write.
I wrote about you, I always do.
I hate writing about you, but it's all I do.
My teacher says my work is amazing.
I wonder what she would think if she met you.
If you were amazing then.
After it all.

Miss You More
I'm missing you all over again
And it's not because you gave me hope
It's not because I love you more now
I miss you every day, especially at night
And it's because I gave myself hope
Because I saw you, now I see you everywhere

This Is Still Painthey say boys don't cry,
so he bleeds instead.
silent screams hidden
under hoodie threads.
he skips meals
like skipping pages
in a book that no one wants to read-
his ribs start spelling out
"notice me"
but no one speaks that language.
"you're a boy, tough it out,"
they said
when his voice shook like glass$and his hands begged for
anything
but silence.
so he carved the words
he couldn't...

Will End TooAs I sit by myself in a room full of
Strangers,
I listen to the cacophony , The Chaos of
Voices, laughter and conversations ;
It feels very familiar,
and I can't help but wonder how soon it
Will end .
And again after a few...

A peaceful warm day.
Scents of flowers fill the air;
So do summer flies!

High School ReunionMy high school reunion:
old classmates,
old friends,
old adversaries,
old strangers
meet after decades
trying to discern
who's who,
who's lived,
who's passed,
who's disappeared...
lost youth commemorated...
survival celebrated....

Strength?strength they call her fondly
she's courage to some
i hold her hand, let her in
let her show me who i shall be
i hold her hand, let her in
let her guide me through the thorny scene
she stayed, with regret
hidden in neat folds of guilt
she held grief, letting broken trust be built
she held softness, she held...

Lost interestthe songs i dont play anymore
the love i once had for you
it just melted to the floor ..
useless, absurd, what was the point?
A wasted heart given
to the wrong one
it was like a pain felt in my joint
will i ever love again?
I dont know
i guess thats just how
how this world flow.

SUMMER RAINSUMMER RAIN
God cried today
His tears fertilizing
The womb of
Mother Earth:
The wet smell
Of nature’s essence
Saturated the air
As moist breeze blew
Breath of new life
Into dried hopes
Wilted in despair:-
The rainy season
Of life has begun:
Maybe love’s peace
Will hollow her footprints
In the canvassing mud:-
