Literature
36 - enough excuses
Insecurities
Attempt to keep me from being
My best version of myself
Can't, won't, will try but most likely fail - is the discourse I had
And you reinforced to keep me from sur-
Passing you in anything at all, belittling
Any of my few achievements
Blaming me for your own short-comings
Leading me to think I could not
Exist without you
Yet
I
am
capable
of more than you ever allowed me to believe
'Cause without you I can actually breathe
Literature
Youth
A thousand burning candles
lighting up a temple.
With the quenching of the last flickering flame
the aegis falls,
and the sacred building crumbles.
Literature
warmer and warmer
the drapes
greet me
an unpleasant
morning.
the sink
drip
drip
drips
again
& the tiles
are colder barefoot.
there is a pile of
newspapers on the
marble counter
& dead quiet
in the air-
until steam
billows from
the coffee mug.
sunlight
beams in the room
like a visitor
& breakfast
comes in with
a sweet smile.
it was 6:30 when
i was alone,
but 7:00
arrived
like a neighbor
& i am happy.
i have myself,
oversized t-shirt
& messy hair
& the warm
comfort of my
own skin.
i was alone.
i'm not anymore.
