Experience the ridiculous antics of my 20-year-old self through one line of poetry written every day for an entire year!
Each line peaks into the ups and downs, excitements and heartbreaks, trials, and tribulations that come with barging headfirst into your 20s.
Any reviews (especially on Amazon!) or points of constructive criticism are greatly appreciated and more than welcome!
This is just the beginning, folks! It can only get better from here!
Your clumsy hands have
Slit my passion’s throat,
Right down the jugular
A crisp straight line,
A road that leads to
My dying mind’s eye
A black hole now
No thanks to you
Or to the girl you prefer
With words like honey
Simple and sweet
So you can understand
No tricks up her sleeve,
But oh, my words confuse
Your simplistic mind
Like a child
Too meaningful and
Full of emotion
Too raw for your
Shrinking ideologies
Open your stupid little eyes
So you can see
The world I have painted
In your shadow

Hey guys!
I just made a Twitter account for my poetry, and I’m slowly starting to find a few of my Tumblr mutuals on there!
If you have a Twitter account and want to give me a follow, I’ll follow you back!

Here and there one can find
Little puffy streams that spill through the carpet
An indication of seams split, an unknown victim,
Soft piles of proof, a give away
Leading velvet trails twisting toward the culprit
Who is sitting almost expectantly by the window
With a face
Of audacity, or guilt, perhaps both
Beaming from puppy eyes
A single string still dangling from quivering lips
As if to engrave the point

String arms, strong arms
won’t let you go
Preventing your tea fingers
from crafting love
out of bitter water
Shredded throats speak softly
of my love
But these string arms,
these strong arms
the ones that won’t let you go
grumble loudly against your skin
as if to say,
I won’t let you go again
