From Snow Days and Green Leaves
I am Naomi
From Japanese relatives
Who refuse to call me anything but Isla-chan,
Out of respect and stubbornness.
I am Isla

Breaking Fairy Tales
Once upon a time,
the princesses got tired.
They were done
they deserved to be.
And the fairies
that the fairy tales were about,
the fairies
that were written out
with their striking beauty

The Tree of Then and Now
THEN
Cupped palms
They hold a seed
One seed
It will change things

The Unlikeliest Duo
Her
With long brown hair
Golden when caught by the sun
A smile that goes miles
That lights up the stage when she performs
Him
With curly black hair
Glasses
Brown eyes
Hard to reach

Eleven Years
For eleven years, I've been a part of the YWP community. I started when I was 11 years old and I went by my old name back then. I used to publish my work here all the time, but much of my publishing has now moved to my university.

so deep I swear I could see his heart.
He was full of light,
I was still trying to fight
the battle going on in my soul.
