I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember. I started off writing songs and eventually poems and then occasionally short stories. My passion was birthed from trauma and I have an endless supply. Follow along and I hope you enjoy!

Silence
Bite your lip
Never again to let anyone in
May 17th
A day of despair
Your due date
But you are not here
You are not anywhere
Your daddy and I
We don’t speak
I don’t think he ever really listened to me
Didn’t reach out today to check in
Maybe it wasn’t as significant for him
To remember
To think of me at all
But he told me I had pull
That I matter
Clearly it isn’t the case at ...
I really want to blame you
For the knife hanging out of my chest
I really want to say it was all your fault
But I know I too played a part
I played the part of the fool
Too trusting
Too naive
Too willing to believe
When you showed me who you were
I just refused to see
So when I want to hate you
Blame you
I need to remember
Part of this falls on me...
I don’t think I have it in me anymore
The patience that made me, me
Was the same patience
The same understanding
That made me weak
That made me a fool
And I pity myself for trusting
For believing in you
Because you did what you do
You came and went
Like the breeze
But not before you knocked the wind out of me
And brought me down to my knees
Because you see sorry is just a word
When you r...
(Twisted the prompt up a bit)
In your arms, I found my home
At least I thought I did
Until all the walls started falling around me
One by one crashing onto the pavement
Suddenly I couldn’t breathe
All the vile things you’d said to me on repeat
Was that the goal?
Hurting me?
We’re you trying to make me hate you?
Because in your mind
You thought it’d be easier for me?
To let you go.
To ...
Bitter…
It’s not a good look.
But I still licked my lips…
And took another sip as I partook.
And I didn’t want to be…
So angry, so irate.
But there was all that give…
And boy did you like to take.
Every last piece of me was yours…
Maybe that was the issue.
I put to much of me into this…
And that’s why there are so many tear stained tissues....
I loved you
You know
With a fury
That consumed me
I would have done anything
For you, for us
And that’s an oath I don’t take lightly
But you let me go
Rendered all the words
You ever uttered meaningless
For how could I mean so much?
And be so easily left
I guess I was always meant to be
Your best kept secret
You turned us into something ugly
In your heart, in your mind
But we were n...
I could lie
And say I love the way that you do
But there is no such thing as a simple truth
And you only come around when you have a need
That needs fulfilling
And for some reason
That’s something I can do
But what do you do for me
Aside from betrayal
In every form
From my mind, to my heart, to my body
Regaining trust isn’t a simple thing
I love you
You used me
A tale as old as time
But I...
