Tree of Life

They sit at the kitchen table of the New York apartment  Staring at the computer screen The cursor blinks at them from inside the screen   They look to their right  The empty wall filled with bright colorful posts it’s filled with story ideas.  Then ideas strike the young human.  They go back to the...

ABC Poem

Anytime, Anywhere  Baby’s have been created by nothing  Cared for and nurtured  Doomed until the end of time  Every once in a while they win  Failure is a part of life  Good thing we die anyways  Have your fun I will be standing right here  Just waiting for you to realize  Know I am here ...

I Remember

I remember the bell ringing  Starting to walk away  Excited to finish a book  Then she calls me  “Come back here”  In a shrill condescending voice  I turn around  My heart dropping out of my chest  “That book is too advanced for you”  No please don’t do this  I silently beg  “Hand it over”  I...

My Bedroom

Looking through the painted white doorway  There are pastel purple walls covered in art and posters  Piles of books standing tall like the queens guards Waiting for me to open and read  The queen sized bed  In the middle of the room  Unmade and covers throw about  Waiting to welcome me home  TJ Maxx bags...

I Am A Girl

I am a girl  I like guys that are way out of my league  And the guys that like me  I like to think I’m out of their league  What if I go for a gamer?  Well who's going to pull him off of his game to take one look at me  What about an... Continue Reading →

Love Is An Ocean

They live on a land Locked away from the sea Hearing stories of seafoam storms  Bringing terror  But that isn’t for them So oceans are simply just that A story, At least to them To them those greens and blues  Are of soft leaves and loud birds Things that rest upon the ground before them...

The Empty Chair

I stare at the small round table  Cloths so white and pure  I see glimmers of you sitting there They fade to quick The glasses are inverted  No more champagne and no more toasts are to be made  I place the single rose  Tied together with a ribbon as red as blood Next comes the...
