• Beach Haikus

  Water soaking sandsWaves crashing against the shoresBirds searching for food Few clouds in the blueSeagulls fly through sunny skiesDipping into water Wind blows over shoresA girl stands in Marram grassFabric flows freely Children laugh and playInflatable balls flyingSplashing as they wade Boards cut through the wavesBalancing to keep the rushTwists and turns to cheers Footprints…

  PLEASE DO NOT TAKE ANY OF THIS SERIOUSLY! I WROTE THIS A LONG TIME AGO ABOUT MYSELF! Go ahead and die Nobody cares about the pain you hide Deep down inside Cry your eyes out Let your tears flood the world But no one will see it Nobody cares They don’t dare step out of…

• Please Understand

  Sometimes I wish they understood But deep down I know they never could They are stuck in their own ways They won’t notice what I say I can scream my lungs to bloody shreds I could take a knife to my arms and legs They won’t notice They’ll never notice They won’t see me around…
