What’s Wrong

August 15th, 2024

I try to fit in
But I’ll never belong
How can I write all my feelings 
When everything’s wrong

Note: Sometimes I like to put a little distance between what I write and when I publish it to my blog. Now I have about 50 poems from the last year that I’m going to start posting!

Recalculating

May 27th, 2024

Six days left
Of being thirty-one
I don’t really know
Who I’ve become
Am I losing my focus
Have I lost my way
Who I was before
Isn’t who I am today
Reflecting on the past
But I know I can’t live there
Leaving behind an old life
And people who never cared
I might not be where I want
But I’m finding direction
From every wrong turn
A new route from rejection
As confusing as it feels
That’s the beauty of growing
Finding myself
After all the not knowing

Following

April 30th, 2011

The idea, so close
The passion, so strong
But each and every thought
Makes it feel more wrong
The temptation, irresistible
The lust, set on fire
The devil’s reaching out her hand
And I feel your desire
Your lips pressed on mine
Up against the wall
And if I do this now
I think I might fall
Lock your eyes in mine
And look at me like before
Take my hand
And I’ll follow the allure
