I wish there was a collection of words I could say to you. A phrase to stop the clock from ticking in the dark. To bring back the lights if just for a moment. Cast away the darkness so that I may see your face, one more time.
IPA’s and a stolen gaze make me drunk and insecure
Never forget, I told you from the onset
that we were meant for more than this
I promised you, I would take you
to every place that you belonged.
i wish i didn’t have a last name;
i don’t belong-
anywhere.
my original last name lost its beauty
from the very first day i was hit,
lost its identity.
i became nameless.
Dear Mr. Anonymous,
What is life like being a mystery?
Is it lonely, and empty,
Or is it full of soul?
Do ever become tired or bored
it didn't have a name.
it didn't have a name but it was certainly,

existent.
Cursed lips that say my name
That first kiss I'd hate to claim
Evil disguised as a beautiful girl
My heart was blinded from another world
To say my name you have to know it first
I wasn’t going to be
Like the girls you had confessed to me
Dense with immorality.
I didn’t want our relationship to be
Like a floating bubble
Rocky and unknowing
The corner of the Patio at a family-friends party, [insert city here], New Jerseyage group: 17-21population: me
We drove through the evening blueness at a rapid pace,
streetlights and buildings blurring to join the smear of stars.
The moon was a sliver, the smirk of a watchful stranger
given to those who glance uneasily his way.
you don't have to tell me i'm not the prettiest
i already know
but i don't have to be
you don't have to remind me i'm forgettable
i already know
but it don't have to be
you can tell me i'm worthless
