Purple

Gray retangular speciticles

with long stems

that fit behind the ear

the world is tinted

when viewed through them

blocking the intense glow

of the sun

Portection

prevention

eyes hidden

everything seems so safe

feeling invisible

fear is non-existant

Seductive

So young
careless
whisper 
in my ear
breath
on my neck
soothing
kiss on my lips
like a walk 
on the beach
sand
so smooth
touch
so gentle
you speak Im deaf 
to your words
you my love

Emotions

Emotions, built up inside of me

overbearing taking over me

making me feel as if im

in an ocean, defenseless,motionless

scared of dying but more scared of giving up

on myself and drowning sinking down

thinking of my past and thinking of what

might have become my future choices I could

have made bad and good but instead of

drowning I get the strength to climb up

to the surface and the choices

I was thinking of making become a reality.

Free Boy

He walks down the street
silent as a mouse
then
stops dead in
his tracks
and
takes in his first
breath of freedom
freedom
from
being abused
mishandled
and
lied to
he shouts
then
walks on

Thinking

Yellow, blue, purple, green
all these colors surround me,
as I sit on the grass
looking up
at the sun
thinking about my future
what will I do?
who will I be?
where will I go?
questions fill my mind
but I forget about them
and
paint a rainbow in the sky

Hidden

Tip toeing down the wooden steps
I slip, but regain my balance
There’s a knock on the door
Peeking out the window
I see his shadow
My heart drops
I run into
The spare room
It’s so dark, empty
I try to remain calm
Curled up
I sit on the bare
Cement floor
Its so cold
The phone is in my hand
My palms are sweaty
My eyes
Filled with tears
I cry quietly
Trying not to give
Myself away
I feel so lost
Unable
To be found
I remain motionless
All but
My stomach
Why does he keep
Coming back here?
The cold seeped
Through my pajamas
I don’t deserve this
I did nothing wrong
I should have
Gone to school
But no
He would have 
Gotten
Me there too
I sit and wait
For the knocking
To end
I get up
I realize
Nowhere is safe
