a spoken word piece of mine, "its been over a year and im starting to feel alive again," about grief, growth, and finding bits of yourself that youd thought youd lost.

He wrapped me around his finger
before I could get a look at his face,
see the flames that burned in his eyes,
the darkness that cloaked his soul.
This wasn’t an angel staring down at me,
wasn’t a man with a golden halo
ready to take me to paradise.
I had fallen for a devil in disguise again,
and he was ready to take me down
to whatever hell he had built
to keep me a prisoner in…
forever.
But what if he looked too much like a savior
when he smiled at me?
What if his words were soaked with honey,
or if he was the one who made me
want to sing love songs in the shower again?
What if he was the boy who took the weight
from my shoulders and cast it aside,
for the rest of the world to deal with,
to give me a break from the pain?
Maybe falling in love with the enemy
isn’t so bad after all.
He’s better than most of my friends,
better than the man who called himself my father.
Better than the demon with sapphire eyes
handing me a shovel in the desert,
warning me to dig my grave
before he does it for me.
-Falling for trouble.

Growing Older/Music
The best thing about growing older so far has to be
The music.
The memories, the scents, the feelings associated
The catalogue of memories with soundtracks I’m accumulating
The piano in my heart keeps expanding
Each year that passes I add a few new strings
I smack a little harder, a little softer
My dynamics are so intense —
I am always humming.

Have you ever had that feeling - that you’d like to go to a whole different place and become a whole different self?

One day, you won’t have to wonder
what it would be like if someone showed up for you.
He’ll be there, waiting with the other spouses and children.
He’ll sweep you up in his arms,
ready to take you home to that house in the hills
you’ve always wanted, always dreamed of.
But the demons and devils will do what they can to keep you in their clutches,
tied down with the chains they threw at you
when you didn’t know to run
from the people who raised you,
the people who were supposed to look out for you.
You fell into their arms as they wielded knives and flames
like they should have held blankets and kind words. You succumbed to the torture from the wicked king because he convinced you that that was what you deserved.
But right when you were about to flee the kingdom,
disappearing on everyone forever,
the princes and their sisters found you,
breaking down the barrier that had been built to keep you away from the world,
to keep you locked up tight.
They opened all the doors and you ran for your life.
You ran into a new life you had no idea
how to live. Because you were a disaster.
It’s all you’ve ever been and all you’ll ever be.
How could you ever be more than this?
How could you pick up your mess of a life,
(because didn’t they make it a mess and leave you
to make sense of it?
How could you pick up the pieces and tape them back
together if they’re so misshapen and scattered you can’t make
sense of anything anymore?
What if they broke you down so much
that you stayed in a heap on that wooden floor,
just like you were eight years old again?
All brown curls and tears as the plastic
slammed against your bare skin
over and over and over.
But no one cares about that.
They don’t want to hear about the
nights that made you want to take the life your mother gave you,
took out of her own body,
and throw it in the gutter.
They don’t want to hear about
the boys who swore that you deserved
nothing more, nothing less.
Because those insults, that abuse,
was the past.
That doesn’t matter, right?
-The subtlety of giving up
