Nature
A girl with
Wildfire on her tongue
Lightning in her fingertips
Earthquakes in her eyes
A hurricane in her heart
And tornadoes in her soul
Let her be
Your perfect storm

Log Cabin Windows
Smell the calm
Taste the darkness
Touch the stars
Bathe in the moonlight
And feel my love
Find your center
And I've found
My home
demonWhispers
You're ugly
They said
You're unwanted
They sneered
You're unloveable
They teased
But somehow
I'm the only one
That can hear them

Purgatory
I can swallow the lows
I can enjoy the highs
It's the long middles
Those eternal in betweens
That threaten
To crush me

thunderHeads
The pinprick
The stab in the heart
I can feel the heat spread
The warm and sticky blood
And soon my whole chest
Is on fire and soaked
I chase the rain
The only way to wash myself
Clean of you
But the clouds move
Faster than I can

catchingTears
Hummingbird wings
Darting from side to side
There to kiss away the tears
Before they have the chance
To fall

Terrified
Run for your life
Little Rabbit
Can't stop
Won't stop
To look back
There's fire and smoke
And nothing left
Run
Run
Run
Don't let him catch you
Don't let him see you cry
Don't let him know
How afraid you are
Run away
So he can forget you
Ever existed
Run
Run
Run
~~~
The thoughts that fly
~~~Through my head as I
~~~Stand frozen
~~~Unable to move
~~~And weep

Spark
Nothing special
A tiny shell of a thing
Unnoticed
Hard to see
Amongst the polished glass
Trying its best
To outshine the sun
