Oh, Bird!

Oh, Bird, tell me how does it feel to float on wings of ivory and gold?
What is it like to have the world at your fingertips? 
Tell me of the world beyond these acres, 
Of the thrilling adventures in which you sing. 
Oh, Bird, tell me why, after the beauty and wonder you have seen, 
You sit perched on my window, reminiscing.
Tell me if there is such comfort in farmiliarity.
Why do I long to see the world beyond the bounds of normalcy?
Oh, Bird, I cannot ignore the queries that pull at my heartstrings begging for resolution. 
Tell me, if you do not have all the answers, then who does?
Oh, Bird, bring me with you as you fly away.
You leave unanswered questions in your wake.

  • The Day You Died

    The day you died 

    We danced, sang, and laughed until we cried

    we filled ourselves with happiness until the sadness did subside

    At the end we simply said good night not goodbye

  • 17th Birthday


    A year older.

    A year wiser. 

    Time slips out from my grasp like the oceans tides, 

    Natural yet terrifying in the most nauseating way, 

    I’m sick of growing up.
  • Love Lost

    Love is felt most when its leaving 

    We cry for what once was 

    What could’ve been

    For the people We once were 

    Watching as it leaves

    Weary eyes, and tired feet
