The speaker of her phone
Good advice she thought
Her dreams definitely
Broke her heart
More than once
Her dream of becoming
A writer an author
To be something with
Purpose
Except she wasn't
That girl was just
A random person -unicorn
Who lived in Minnesota
Just like anyone else
She loved to believe
That maybe she
Could do something
Important with her life
But deep down she
Knew it was always
Just going to be
A dream
It broke her heart
So she left
It and decided to
Be like everyone else
Human
4.
Abandonment
Everyone leaves
They leave
With or without warning
Packing up everything
And going on
To do something else
Hopefully something better
Sometimes it's
Okay to let go
Of these people
If they cared
Then maybe they
Would have stayed
Maybe if they stayed
You wouldn't
Feel so lonely
Still you put on
A strong face
And hide the true emotions
They left you behind
Forget them
You don't need them
But still
Letting go of the past
Is difficult
It's like a
Rope tied to your wrist
Pulling you back
Just let go
5.
Tired
Always tired
Never enough sleep
Just laying on the mattress
Thinking of
The good and the bad
Finally sleep consumes me
Waking up early
Too early
Need more sleep
Can't get the sleep
I crave
Thoughts bouncing
Up and down
Side to side
Everywhere they go
I listen and hear
The past the present the future
The good and bad
No bad
Leave the bad thinking
Out
Please
No more thinking
Just need sleep
6.
a nickname
That haunts her past
She wishes to forget
Still it sits in the back
Of her head
Creeping out in the
Darkest moments
Taunting her
The past her and she wishes
For it to stop
Yet it never does
It screams at her
Whenever she talks
And embarrasses herself
A whisper of a ghost
In her ear
Gone
She wants it gone
Just like her past
Everyone there has left her
No more
Hurt
She thinks sometimes
Why can't I let the past go
It's not here anymore
Focus on the now
Still she can't
The name she can't seem to forget
Lingers
Although she doubts
Anyone remembers it
She does
She doesn't want to
So she uses distractions
They may work
But almost never do
Just to forget a name
No one calls her
Anymore
Maybe
It's not the name she wants to forget
Rather the boy
Who called her it
Or the annoying sibling she lives with
Maybe
