  • Give Me A Moment

    The mtn number you’ve dialled Feels too vulnerable to talk to you right now She knows you’re trying to help, but she really doesn’t need it Please try again later Or dial *505# To listen to a pre-recorded message. Hold on a minute Please, give me a second to recollect myself I need a moment…

  • A “No-helpian”

    I know this is gonna be harsh It’ll hurt But I hope you’ll understand Because I sure don’t get Why y’all act like hypocrites Every damn day It’s lovely to want to help people To listen To always be there But how can you expect me to confide in me When you never tell me…

  • Friends

    I search for friends like other girls search for boyfriendsNope, not this oneShe’s too shallowShe raises her voiceThis one even sounds like my mumI know it’s weird but it’s been way too long.Since I formed a close relationship with someone I genuinely liked. Everyone is so nice hereBut it feels like I’m forcing it all…

  • A penny for your silence?

    “A penny for your Silence, Martha?” My sister asked,One night when we were both alone.“You’re no longer as loud as you usually are and you barely talk at all”I shook my head and pulled on a smile that felt too big for my face,And it felt so fakeThat the edges of my lips began to…

  • College

    I stare at my phone,Eyes heavy with bags they don’t need to carry.I look from note to text book,From jotter to pen,And wonder why I’d been so happy to come to this school. I’m so exhausted that weird things are becoming my lifestyle,Like talking to myself,And considering mixing coffee with fearless.They said this school life…

  • Tired

    Not sure what this poem is going to be about,Because I’m really not sure what exactly is wrong with me.I legit got eight hours of sleep last night.So why am I still tired? Why do I still drag my feet as I walk along the corridors,How can I sleep and sleep and still wake up…

  • Listen

    I’m tired of hearing the usual “say your mind,”Because whatever I say never really matters,People always just do what they want anyway,So why even bother? I’m always talking.Sometimes I raise my voice,In an effort to be heard.Then they yell at me “why are you shouting?!”Why won’t I shout?I’ve been saying the same thing for three…

  • The pain inside

    I want to wish it away,But I know it won’t go.I should be happy now right,My happy ending is so close,I got what I wanted,But it just sucks inside.I’m not sure why.But I’m going to try to explain. I’ve been so used to being sad for so long,I’m wondering what it’ll be like to feel…

  • The girl who does nothing

    I’m sitting in my bed just staring at my phone. It’s locked, the screen is dark and I’m just looking at it because I have nothing else to do. Oh, no wait, I actually do have a ton of things I have to do. I just don’t have the energy to do any of them.…

  • Those parts

    Doesn’t life suck,When you want to be everything you’re not.You lie.Telling everyone “I’m fine”“I’m healed”When you know very well you really aren’t.Part of you is tired.Tired of trying,Tired of hoping,Looking for a boost or something to just get you through today.You don’t know if you can do it anymore,But you lie,And you say “I’m fine”…
