All Monsters Are Human
You up? I know damn well I shouldn’t be And in those few seconds Where I’m deciding If I am or not I know you know all too well That I am Otherwise you would never ask You cast the line out Just to see if I nibble When you know I will So I … Continue reading Middle Of The Morning
If I ask you what you like about me after you proclaim that you “like me” and we are talking with the intent to date, none of the following is acceptable: 1.) “You’re cute”. Obviously there was some form of attraction when we agreed to talk. 2.) “You’re funny”. While I’ll admit that I do … Continue reading (Not So) Random Obsessive Thought
I found myself thinking of my guy friends, wanting to talk to them and hear them talk back. Their advice always sans judgment. Wisdom from both their individual experiences and our experiences together. I miss the reign of freedom we had in discussions and the solace provided by their moral support. Somehow I've grown complacent … Continue reading (Not So) Random Obsessive Thought
In lieu of finding out who you were I tossed you to the side I figured I could come back to you Like a math problem I didn’t understand I watched you age from the sidelines You journaled how the isolation made you feel But I never took the time to read your words Instead, … Continue reading Despite All The Things
"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.

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

I actually did this poem already, but I deleted it because it wasn't just about that. Trials of a Hummingbird was written a couple of days before my 21st birthday. It was during my junior year in college. I was one of those "do what you know" kind of people because growing up I was … Continue reading History of “Trials of a Hummingbird”
Feed me. The bird always beckoned. Feed me. That'll give me the strength to feed you, too. Feed me, feed me, feed me The only thing ravenous about my hunger, it has to be you. But how can I complete what is so foreign to me? I've never ate the way you have I ache … Continue reading Ravenous
Temptation is a dangerously wonderful thing. The delicate intricacy of how something can be both just out of reach and within reach eludes me. However, I do enjoy when temptation decides to let loose when sitting with me. He sticks around and kicks his feet up. He talks and all the while lets his guard … Continue reading (Not So) Random Obsessive Thought
