a kaleidoscopic look at a life full of ups and downs, laid out in a poetic form. // highest rank: #4 in poet... More

this mirage is cruel.
the safety is off, caution, you may get burned.
i shouldn't post when i'm drunk.
l o n e l y .
mince pies and misery.
what happens when you can't enjoy coffee?
silence speaks louder than screaming and fighting.
new year's day.
i'll be the villain in your fairytale, but watch me rise from the dead.
love shouldn't be a war.
A/N
drag me into the deep and let me breathe
equality is for everyone.
your time is running out.
cut the brakes, but don't take me with you.
the piano will win every time.
girl, you got this.
dont take the wrong step.
i fucking hate you.
it's not written in the stars, it's written in my dna.
i'm no dorothy, this storm only has one destination and it's not oz.
drip, drip, drip.
Show Me How - Collaboration
my mind is one big circle.
sow the flowers, calm the beast.
the girl looking back at me in the mirror needs help.
ugh.
apologies are for regrets.
it consumes me.
balancing for what?
when anger is the only thing you have left.
on what level will it stop? (please read)
Hey! (Please Read)
i never felt like this before you but i wish i had.
rest in peace stephen hawking.
why does history repeat itself?
all i ever want is five minutes of peace.
i have no witty title for you all today.
i feel so ill. (this is poetry btw)
you're a force to be reckoned with.
i guess it's goodbye.
maybe they don't have to.
i had so much hope before i fell.
tables turned and soon we were dining on the ceiling.
when life gives you lemons. (Please read)
watch me burn.
you're the cream in my coffee.
how can you read me like a romance when i'm a tragedy?
i already know.
sometimes, you gotta be your own light
with my bare hands, i dug my own destiny.
when its not what it looks like, its exactly what it looks like.
that's not your decision to make.
you're bitter darling.
crying into my pillow because you're so beautiful.
the last petal has fallen.
fallen on the trip wire.
making fake promises only gets you so far.
where would i be?
keep me warm, hold me tight.
its stuck; replaying, replaying, replaying
sometimes the past creeps up on you and punches you in the gut.
lying, to stop the pain.
don't let the nightmares in.
make me glow in the dark.
when life squuezes lemon juice in your eye instead of giving you lemons
stop invading my privacy.
tell me please, how long?
your toxicity is blinding.
maybe i should stop listening to the radio.
you cut right through me.
i should've known.
d e s p a i r .
forgiveness sets you free.
i'm so tired of life of everything.
lay me to rest.
A/N PLEASE READ LOVE YOU ALL ❤️
maybe you were too busy learning the wrong things.
but we're not the same people anymore.
life is so shit.
take responsibility for your actions cause they're not my problem.
sometimes i still feel the same.
this feels awful.
don't miss yours.
it should be a choice, not a need.
here we are again.
it's not a movie.
HAPPY PRIDE 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈
babe, you really got me.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR-GOD-DAMN-SELVES BEAUTIES!
i'm so angry lately, but can you blame me?
everything is never EVERYTHING unless youre playing supermarket sweep.
a lemon is sweet compared to you.
my mind has been on flight mode for so long.
breathing won't be worthwhile.
cloudy days are but a challenge.
IS THERE ANYTHING/ANY SUBJECT YOU WANT ME TO WRITE ABOUT?
SORRY TO BE ANNOYING BUT I HAVE AN ANNOUNCMENT SO PLEASE READ ❤️
SHOP LINK IN BIO
just stay a little longer moon.
she has fire in ber heart, touch it and you get burned.
Things I probably shouldn't say.
don't try to.
Please Read
Whats wrong with me?
you spilled the red wine and spoiled the party.
girl.
no dinner tonight.
who i am.
does the universe make you feel small?
why?
the saddest love letter of all.
i was crying silently in the background.
fall.
wake up and smell the roses.
you gave me nothing.
i go back to then all the time.
I never got to leave.
LIFE UPDATE
#nationalcomingoutday
but i remember.
oh boy, you're trouble.
i needed to stop living in the good moments.
rebirth.
when its over its over.
it was never going to work.
its too raw.
Yepp!!!
i'm too much, i always will be.
she doesn't care.
a part of me is left with you.
let me try again.
this feels like its never going to end, someone open the door.
