  • Imposter Syndrome

    Loneliness comes in waves around this time Wanting to be surrounded by inspiration, But not wanting to consume ones ideas Wanting to be great But not wanting to feel like I am competing Am I worthy?

    Negative Thoughts

    I see what you can’t see in me Or what you refuse to see in me So many years have been wasted on thoughts of unworthy I am unworthy of a lot of things At least that’s what I tell myself I don’t always feel that way, But when I do.. I really do

    I Don’t Blame You

    When I’m feeling low and unappealing You’re always there with your natural healing The scum of the earth with a bruised ego Forever reminding myself why I don’t matter And there you are Hands ready to catch me as I fall in the pit of my own negligence I never knew what the ground tasted […]

    I Want Out

    some days I want to crawl out of my body Not because of discomfort Because of too much comfort I hate the daily routine The mild confusion I get Everything gets so foggy The tiredness The fact that I refuse to change certain habits although it benefits me Too much comfort I want to claw […]

    Replaced Memories

    Na, I don’t think about you anymore The tear in my heart is no longer sore I’ve been dreaming a lot Making plans in this spot Still not one thought of you Making friends, Smoking pot Minding my business And nobody even knows I knew you

    Honeymoon

    I didn’t need to light that candel You shined so effortlessly on your own Similar to the glow when I first laid eyes on you The aroma in the room weakened the limbs No longer standing Instead on my knees Worshipping every moment I have you in my presence Falling in love all over again […]

    All Summer

    We can’t keep doing this A magnetic force when you’re around So much sexual chemistry I have morals But even on Sundays, Impossible to keep my panties dry Heart skips at the sound of you Just the smell of you makes me moist I don’t mind performing I don’t get stage fright I want to […]
