Today the snow falls fast and fresh
from the sky of Parrish blue
It danced all across the world
so I started dancing too
In Cyprus I across my arms
and circle round my hat
He is a hot oven with a blazing glaze, many chewed up wires but a very nice inside.
He is a holey Golf cap, with stitching as beautiful as daybreak,
he helps me with all my flaws, my favourite piece of clothing.
He is an untuned guitar, he gets me through my shows without worry.
He is a hillside, rough and treacherous, only letting loved one’s pass,
warm inside like a volcano, my favourite hill to climb.
He is a rusty bike with muddy wheels, always helps me over the holes in the ground.
A smile when I am feeling sad.
He is midnight, he is dark and light.
He is vodka, clear and full of emotion.
His smell is sea water, salty and sour, he helps me to swim.
He is a thunderstorm when I do something wrong but helping me to win.
He is a Rhino, crashing into me when I least expect it.
He is a black hole.
Waving like enormous waves in the sea
Awesome to me because it makes the pleasant beach
Thankful I am to it and tasteless it feels to me
Every precious drop is important as many lessons they teach
Refreshment it is which keeps us alive till today and makes us a group called ‘WE’
Three years.
Three years since I thought I was stuck
Stuck in the moment you left
Your beachy ringlets stared at me like Medusa’s snakes
Framed as a monster
But really just some hurt little boy
Your dad left early
Your mom barely paid attention to you
It still hurts me
When I think about how you ripped my letter
Just like my heart
Some part of me knew you cared
But some part of me knew you didn’t
I won’t tell anyone I waited
And you won’t tell anyone
The secrets I kept to myself
Something that i hid in the deepest parts of me
You knew
And you kept it there in the deepest parts of you
You were always resistant and scared
But why me
Why was I the one you confided in
Maybe it was my gentle eyes
Or my wavy hair
Or maybe it was the fact we were broken in the same ways
You look at me with such hatred
And I’ll never understand why
My guilt eats me alive
Just like how your fear ate every part of you with a soul
Even though we’re apart
We never talk
We give glares and mean taunts
I hope your okay
I hope you find peace in knowing you shouldn’t be responsible for him
That’s not your job
I hope you’re okay
I hope you find every little piece of love you can and let it hug you
You were worth it Medusa
The six months were worth it
And even if those six months are the death of me
I hope you’re okay
I hope your dad finally lets you cry
And I hope your mom finally says I’m proud
I hope your brother stops depending on you
We could’ve been so great
We could’ve been legendary
But if it really was just momentarily
I hope you’re okay
I don’t know how to get in.
I am a spy, having fun,
on the lookout, ready to run.
Creeping closer, somethings strange,
I need a disguise! I need to change!
I am a teacher, sitting on my chair,
looking for my pen, but it’s not there!
Searching up and down, looking everywhere,
I looked down, I looked up, but it was stuck in my hair!
I am a rider, riding free,
riding quickly, you can’t catch me!
The wind whispers secrets as we roam,
in this equestrian journey, we find our home.
I am a pilot, working at night,
giving my passengers a nice steady flight.
Catching the beautiful moment, as I fly,
looking at the gorgeous, sunset sky.
I am a salon worker, painting a nail,
I try it again, as I fail.
I make it perfect, as they sit in the chair,
“The nails are done. Now time for hair!”
I am a baker, baking a cake,
I burnt the last layer for goodness sake!
I put the last layer in the oven and try it again,
I take out the icing but right then…
I find myself in my bed,
thinking about everything my mind has said.
Thinking about all the jobs I see,
and I wonder, when I’m older what will I be?
You may have dimples,
or freckles or pimples,
small ears, strange eyes or big teeth.
But it doesn’t matter,
on the inside it counts,
it’s only the person who lives underneath.
