{Artwork by Tess Emily Rodriguez} It’s not you It’s me A trigger of splits and halves I try to convey what I want to say And end up with a laugh I understand exactly what you mean Sometimes a little too well Which in turn puts me in my feelings Giving way for no show … Continue reading mixed signals

History Behind “Me Forgetting You”
*Sigh* Where do I even start... "Me Forgetting You" is an ode to all the ways I've attempted to forget a person who was, well has been a huge part of my life. More than ten years. I couldn't remove someone with that much intel and experience even if I (or the Men in Black) … Continue reading History Behind “Me Forgetting You”
Everlasting Idiot
Though written in a year of tragedy, it feels more fitting to this year.” He be a fool who kills a child Mentally immoral, physically unbound He who does such deserves no life Take a step backwards and another Slowly into the word that is my knife A man such as this has no soul … Continue reading Everlasting Idiot
History Behind “S.O.S.: Save OurSelves”
If you've seen some of my posts, you know that expressing emotion was and sometimes continues to be difficult for me. Anger is one emotion I had no control over...or shall I say one that I didn't care if I had control over. On top anger, there were a plethora of different emotions that we … Continue reading History Behind “S.O.S.: Save OurSelves”
History Behind “When You’re Not In The Equation”
“When You’re Not In The Equation” is a poem slathered with confrontation. It’s a conversation that doesn’t want to be had, but happens anyway because it’s confused.

I’ve always been a … Continue reading History Behind “When You’re Not In The Equation”
History Behind “Time After Time”
"Time After Time" seemed to me as I reread it, even though I know what it was about, self explanatory. I originally wrote it with the thought in mind that I can never seem to move on past something. It was a constant merry go round. You'd make one full loop on rotation, ready for … Continue reading History Behind “Time After Time”
Letters To You
I've wrote countless letters. Seemingly meaningless letters to you. Ones counting the days. Ones counting the hours. Ones counting minutes. Ones counting the ways. Yet, they never come to you. They've never seen your face. They've never heard your voice. They're left to wonder who and exactly what are they in ode to. A hiding … Continue reading Letters To You
Random Obsessive Thought
If you guys were truly friends first, there will be occasional talking afterwards. You'll spend time talking about the daily things happening with you and the random things you don't talk about with anyone else. There will be intermittent flirting throughout followed by reminders of how platonic you are now. People will question why you … Continue reading Random Obsessive Thought
Sliver
There's always a sliver of light That I can never seem to reach Been traveling in this tunnel for so long Led by the only bit of life I can see The ground is dry and hard The pool of water is a puddle Registering cold and warm is hard Trying to feel anything has … Continue reading Sliver
It’s Been A While…Hey
I haven't wrote since my last post. For the non writer in me, that's just been a month. However, for the writer in me, it's been 3,097,383 seconds of me not being able to explain myself. It's been me trying to figure out what's going on with me emotionally and figuring out how to express … Continue reading It’s Been A While…Hey
