This is something I wrote about my best friend, well one of my best friends. I have three. But yeah, I wrote this when we had stopped talking to her, not for any reason, it's just that we both were very busy with our exams and studies. And as always my emotions find a way to express themselves like this.
Summer before
It seems that I have nowhere to go
You have gone somewhere I can't follow
I have lost my courage along the road
And all I have now are deleted texts
That I wasn't brave enough to let you read
Somehow I had stopped being who I was
And the space you occupied was empty
And this isn't unfamiliar territory
But it's something I felt after a long time
And I don't know how to act
Because I need you here but I can't say it
So perhaps a leap of faith is necessary
Perhaps you will catch me when I fall
Just tell me this, we are the same we were
Just how we were the summer before

benthic angel
was writing about lake sturgeon for a class assignment and showed one of my friends what i'd written.. he then sent part of it back to me with line breaks to turn it into a poem! i just had to draw something for it :]
poem text under the readmore:
lake sturgeon don't know that they're endangered. They don't know anything - other than the muck at the bottom of the water column and the occasional passing touch of another.
really touched by how my friend turned my technical writing into poetry. i haven't tried to write creatively in months, so it's nice to see i've still got it- and nicer still that i could get so inspired by my friend, since i haven't made nature art in a little while, either :>!!

I wrote these during my senior year of high school.
My poems are usually short and sweet. When I attempt to write poems that are longer, they usually end up horribly bad.
On another note, I'm not a professional writer, so these might not be the best.
Either way I hope you enjoy these.

Smaller note: these poems were taken from a poem story I wrote for a school project.

At school
The classroom is loud and bright.
A cluster of sounds holds me tight.
The grip is suffocating me dead,
as I hold the hair on my head.
Thinking is to much for me,
It almost throws me on my knees.
So throwing myself in my work,
I will try to keep myself afloat.
﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋
What I do when I get home
When I go home,
The first thing I do is go on my phone.
Mindlessly i scroll,
Through stories that aren't my own.
Escaping the reality
known as my home.

I think there’s something so deeply and intimately and morbidly true about The Last of Us’s primary thesis which is that humanity’s fatal flaw, in that very Shakespearian way, is that we are destined to care too much about one another so much so that we discard the collective entirely. like we have such a capacity to love the human race and humanity as a whole, to grow our communities and govern cities how we know best and foster such connection with the masses which we are part of, but it’s overtaken by our capacity to love even just a single other person. like one human can come into your life that creates such an intrinsic and passionate love in you— or maybe two people or a family’s worth or any small number— and you suddenly would burn entire villages down just to keep them safe.
joel doesn’t blink twice murdering to find ellie. he doesn’t look back when he decides to do what he does at the hospital later on. he has no remorse about any of it it, because this one girl has grown to mean more to him than any possible greater good could ever mean. and it’s reciprocal. ellie would— and does— do anything she can to help him, save him, protect him, and, eventually, to avenge him. because that’s what you do when you love someone. not when you love people. when you love someone.
and it’s selfish, in a way??? because we love these people and would do so much for them because they mean more to us than other strangers do. it’s exactly like an iteration of the trolley problem, actually. one track has your daughter on it and one track has fifty people. don’t even try telling me you wouldn’t go onto track B if it meant saving your daughter and her puppy dog eyes from the whimpering and pain and fear. The Last of Us says yes, you would. I would. we all would. and like yeah that is our greatest weakness, that we have such a unique ability to love a handful of people so deeply that our compassion towards community and strangers and the bigger collective starts to slip from view. but goddamn what a fucking great fatal flaw it is to have. we are all going to die and the world will burn because we loved another person too much.

An Invitation
What I want to say is
I like your face,
            I think about
your hands on me,
            but I don’t say this
aloud,
            and yet everything
about me is an invitation,
            an open door,
a conjuring of clothes
            on a bedroom floor,
and I’m not sure who
            will make the first move,
only that one of us will,
and it feels like a song
            I once knew
but forgot, you feel like a song
            I once knew,
come closer,
            let me sing it back to you.

i think it’s important everyone knows about the little roman girl who died at only five years and seven months old, and her grave reads "dum vixi, lusi" or "while i lived, i played"
