The Weight of It All
you scream at me,
for my anxiety.
as if i don’t already know it’s a burden,
if i could turn off my head i would.
all this noise is suffocating.

One More Chance
i went to therapy yesterday,
it sucked.
everything sucks,
all the time.
but i saw a car stop,
to let a goose cross the street.
and that didn’t suck.
trying to give living a chance.

Misunderstanding Love
i used to think,
“how stupid can a girl be?”
“why stay with a violent man?”
till you hit me.
i take back everything i said,
you learn to blame the fist,
when the person you love is on the other side of it.
love shouldn’t hurt physically.
