    Sloth

    As I sink in the ocean, nothing is present Not the waves washing all over me like a dream Not the pokes and burns of the sand Not the salt dancing all over my wet body But I’m pulled through for eternity Why am I being pulled forever? | I’m doing this to myself As…

    The Unsung Song

    he unsung song is one of wonder From the highest peaks to the world down below I sit in the living room at last, all alone Then I become someone else that is unseen I dream of epiphanies yet to come | The world of the mind can come to form in millions of ways…

    Quiet Times

    I just want to let you know Whenever we’re inside or outside And the day is as warm as fun, A day where we get to play outside In the flowers By the calming beaches Singing melodies of our hearts Or when it’s cold and tranquil We’re stuck at home Curled up by the fire…

    Silver

    I stand on the podium after all my hard work All the time I spent to prove myself I get 2nd place The silver medal is hung on my neck  The weight of defeat carries me down like an anchor The bitter taste of silver in my mouth like rocks and lemons I hear white…

    The Doll’s Funeral – Poem Edition

    It was a dark, stormy afternoon The child marched through the damp grass with smells of mildew The child’s boots were so muddy, one could no longer identify the red The child’s umbrella was as wet as a towel The rain washing down on the raincoat like the child’s tears | The child dragged a…

    Confidence

    Confidence is a plant that takes time to grow With the right amount of sunlight, rain, and carbon It can turn into something gorgeous and wonderful Or it can wither; All that matters is how it is grown | This flower sprouted later, but at the same time, earlier For plenty of moments in life,…

    Oleander – Part 2

    Oleanders are gorgeous, coming in all the shades of love Pure, white love that is complacent, mutual, and beneficial An era of compassion, trust, and loyalty Childish, pink love that allows two to embrace their inner humor Excitement and zest blooming from this flower Daring, devoted, red love that bonds people through any situation Red…

    Hourglass City

    Time is running out I’m running out of time Out of time, I am running Running time is out As I feel the hours of my days are finite The days of chatter and laughter The days of minuscule success and failure The days outside and inside But all that time has faded in the…

    The Greener Grass

    You will be gone soon I will watch as I have to jump across the fence Out of your sullen, dark field of misery The brownish blades of grass too tired to keep standing The clouds covering the sky without a silver lining I must jump across the white, picket fence and catch a few…
