one smile and we understood

In a torn yellow dress
I sat exhausted after the fit
where I had thrown you all from my table

one hand reached out
and a smile was given

one smile and we understood

Remembering Faith

Obedience
feels like brokenness
brokenness
feels like falling
falling into nothing
tearful
fearful

attempting friendship

is kinda like swallowing ice cubes
and I'm pretty sure they will melt eventually
turn to water
and slip right down

gin

cute
sentimental
tease

hangovers make me wonder how I ended up here

private grief

hard to explain

so I don't speak

I grieve in private

I take deep breaths

hold it in

let it out

late at night

alone

patience

seams are splitting
faster than I can mend
no time for sorrow today
no time

perhaps I stepped forward
onto thin air

perhaps I am not strong
simply weathered
touched by grief

perhaps I am just a girl
enslaved

wanting old habits
wanting to run away

perhaps we are all running
if we could only just hold on
hold until storms pass

patience in pain

It's all your fault.

an apprehensive smile
was pulled from my lips
while walking out of the grocer
