I should be happy
bills paid, lil money in the bank
but I don’t feel like I’m living.
existing, yes
universe, do you need a pencil sharpener?

the feeling of being in your feelings
not quite sad, not quite glad
existing in between

your birthday just passed
and it made me laugh
that my dad said you wasn’t his favorite
I said man you crazy
you must be in a daze
cause that voice is one in a million
thank you for the songs
and sharing your gift
I hope to discover mines soon
make this life worth living.
rest well

the phone is not charged
no music
my twin looks great with braids
i have no hair
that Chinese food dinner i was craving
streaming service got the money early
that beautiful man with a nice smile
just opened the door for his wife
my favorite white T-Shirt
mistakenly washed with the color clothes
that kid I couldn’t wait to have
just painted my living room with chalk
I’m going to take a nap in the car on DND
because I’ll be better than ok.

creativity, the thoughts and ideas
collaboration, the synergy and magic
music to my ears

lights up
showtime
get in line
greatest show on earth
watch the birth
of the mood, of the moment
don’t mind the lights
it’s the story they tell
I know it well
you me together again
1 year on, 1 year off
it’s time for my heart to go soft
last time I come around
you want to know what I’ve found?
Peace

traveling from state to state
there’s no debate
dropping those draws
nameless and shameless
one life to live
can you give some grace?
I didn’t learn the right way
relationships never smooth they say
so I go from bed to bed
hoping to heal the dead
monotony inside of me
judge if you must
but trust I’m having a great time
or am I lying?

we take pills to heal
we breath to stay alive
we fuck to make babies
or make love, same diff
we stay in relationships
we are inauthentic to be liked
we know wrong but do it anyway
see the title of this poem.

can it start
getting out of the dark
wake up and get out of bed
it’s rarely said
life is easy
for some.

full length mirror
gotta do better
didn’t like what I saw
feeling raw.
