Kayla Evans Poem
Spiraling, spinning out of control.
Can't you tell that it's taking a toll.
Stabbing, burning, constant pain.
Sub-par eyes glossing over again.
Today's the day to finally release;
To let go, to slip into glorious peace.
Eyes hazing, head rolling, going to sleep.
Fog thickens, head spinning; won't somebody weep.
Look up as she dies, bright skies turning gray.
No one would save her, goodbye sunny days.

Kayla Evans Poem
I wish I was a sparrow.
To fly, is my dream.
To take off into tomorrow,
believe me this I mean.
What's the point of staying,
and living on the ground?
I could spend the whole day playing,
but to my home I'm bound.
My feet are glued.
I guess I'm stuck,
but what I say is true.
I wish I was a sparrow,
and maybe, so do you.

Kayla Evans Poem
I want to go home.
I can't stand it here anymore
These mountains, these trees, just everything.
I want to run away;
run away to home.
I know that I can never go back,
but home, it's all I can think about.
The warm embrace,
the cozy smell,
everything about it is just so,
intoxicating.
I'm getting dizzy with longing,
I'm growing faint with stress.
There are endorphins to be released,
but they're unable to go anywhere.
I'm stuck,
I feel trapped.
I can't take this anymore.
I just want to go home,
but I'm sitting in my house,
writing this poem,
Thinking about how your arms feel just like...
Home.

Kayla Evans Poem
Screen Obsessed Teens
Finding home in cold dark screens.
Show support, send a like,
Post another, cry all night.
Yet another insecurity.
Take a jab at another's purity.
Swallow a pill, lose some weight;
You feel so heavy the scale could break.
Strive for beauty and perfection.
Pretend to brush off society's rejection.

Kayla Evans Poem
You don't understand how much I miss you.
Your thought brings me laughter, smiles, and tears.
I feel my heart collapsing and I can't stop it.
Your gone, and so is my mind.
But it's okay, you can keep it, I don't want it back,
At least I can feel my longing toward you.
And I don't want that feeling to leave.
If i let go and move on, will you still haunt my dreams?
I know I'm holding onto nothing,
I know your heart isn't mine, but still you hold me
At least in my mind.
I remember the weight of your hugs,
And the feeling of safety that came with your kiss.
I know you don't care, or remember my name,
But me, I won't ever forget.

Kayla Evans Poem
I look around the room, its filled to the brim
all the people smiling, happy, not grim.
I listen to the chatter,
to the mindless constand laughter.
I then realize,
I'm alone.
Do any of these people know the story of one another?
Does anyone care, why does no one seems to bother?
I look at all the faces;
A smile leaves its traces
I then realize,
I'm alone.
In a world so dark and so dirty,
who determines who is and isn't worthy
of a companion, and a friend?

Kayla Evans Poem
Sweet sympathetic sleep,
she will hold me while I weep.
To no one else she speaks,
in her arms I go weak.
She whispers in my ear
and tells me things I wish to hear.
Temptation always lurks,
and existing always hurts.
When my final dawn breaks,
when the pain leaves me awake,
sweet sympathetic sleep will wait.

Kayla Evans Poem
I searched for you again,
but your never there when I am.
I saw you again;
why can't I meet your gaze?
I understand you hate me, or maybe you forgot,
but I go out of my way everyday to steal a glimpse of you.
Today they asked me, "what's wrong", they told me I looked sad,
but I can't seem to tell them that I've gone crazy, just over the thought of you.
I know I'm a regret, wasted days, weeks, months.
There's no closure in this pain, I'll never be with you again.
It was great, then it was gone.
So abrupt, I cannot cope.
I love you, but you'll never know.
Sweet dreams my love, sleep tight,
I'm left to pine another night.

Kayla Evans Poem
When the stormy waters clear my love, better times await.
Your heart will mend, your soul will cleanse once you turn the other way.
You see no room for tomorrow and must focus on today.
Have no fear my sorrowful dear, better times await.
One day their words won't hurt you and your bruised and broken heart.
You must listen to what I say my love, you mustn't fall apart.
I know for now your twisted thoughts don't make an ounce of sense,
but soon my dear the riptides will clear to lie in reverence.
Find peace with yourself and with the world, just close your pretty eyes.
Relax my love, you can now just drift with the tide.

Kayla Evans Poem
Fear, the dictator restricting my movements and constricting my lungs.
The fear of failure, thunder, and loss is controlling me.
The world is so loud, all thoughts are drowned out.
Who can drown in panic and fear and resurface alive?
My brain holds me back, I am the only restriction,
We are tethered to the past, like simple trained animals.
The only chance of freedom is learning to move on,
Move on from fear, from past traumas that haunt you.
Fear is the abductor of the mind, we are hostages;
The way out is to fight, but we are scared.
