Hatred in your eyes Glaring at how I live You're so mad for what? This is not my fault. You made your own choice, but you blame me You only care if it affects you Freedom is for everyone, or so I thought Obviously, I thought wrong. I just want to escape exploitation ...

Jesus Christ, The King of kings— “Holy, holy”, servant angels sing. No softer name can there be, Than Christ who walked the stormy sea. He opened eyes of blinded men, Yet veiled the sight of Pharisees. He wept upon the hillside high For hearts that their Maker by— Hearts that would not seek H...

Dandelion Lament By: Quinn It began as a golden wretch, Born low in the soil’s cold stretch, Its head bowed down in false regret, A sunlit curse the dark can’t forget. Too yellow — like flame in a tomb, It laughed in fields of death and gloom, A gleaming eye beneath the rain, Mocking all th...

ㅤ ׅ 𝄂𝄚𝅦𝄚𝄞𝅄ㅤㅤ ׅ 𝄂𝄚𝅦𝄚𝄞𝅄ㅤ we march to life's tireless parade with our brethren, fellow sinners who dance unintended charades 'round family, friends or lovers to feel as though bound and tethered; just as hope sparkles in a gleam, happiness, the purest aether — b...

You called me pretty— but said it like "pitiful." Bright like a warning, loud like I’m criminal. Petals like paint you can’t wash off clean, a girl made of spice, not sugar or cream. Nasturtium. Even the name sounds fake. Like something you mumble when flowers ache. Not rose, not daisy— I wasn’t pi...

Often I do wonder with bore, sat on a rock by this white shore, Adorned by stars, its silver hue, illusion of an oddly few— How mine heart calls this place a home, a home where mine darkness does roam, A shore of snow, this home where mine own shadows grow, Where all li...

Long ago, I thought of writing this. As I memorized your face— your virtues, your failures. How you taught my ancestors to devour the firmament. They drank the blood of stars, took in its warmth. Turned breath into sugar, wind into sweetness. I bla...

I’m not even bipolar— but damn, it feels close. One verse is mourning, the next one jokes. I write eulogies in glitter pens, love notes and nervous jokes that beg to be laughed at or else. One hour I’m a stormcloud, soggy with ache— the next, I’m helium, too loud to break. Who needs a diagnosis whe...

I want them to stay I love them dearly Yet I push them away Isn't that silly? I crave their attention Would do anything for it No bad intention But a really bad habit One mistake Enough to break me To cause a deep ache Right where my heart would be My resentment and pain Drive us apart Bu...

At a day I wanted to be alone. My friend insisted on sleepover. I was burdened enough to smile, heavy enough to chuckle. The night came rushing as she talked about her fantasy that barely made sense to me, as I surfed elsewhere in my mind. It was too late, and she could see me drowse. She moved to...

:warning: Trigger/content warning :warning: Mild blood, death Word count: 3215 The room was small but didn't feel suffocating. Most people would probably call it comfortable. A single window on the back wall was an illusion of freedom, the gray clouds lazily slipping past. ...

Close my eyes, I’m crying at the sound Cold slick floors, I’m always falling down Trying so hard to not feel any shame To ignore the dirt upon my name The date, the name, scratched out in black So I don’t have to face a memory left intact And they all stare at me with hatred Blaming me for feeling...

Am I to blame, That my heart aches to be yours ? Do I wish to stay Or do I wish to leave ? You're the only thought that lingers my mind. Two stories tangled, I turn away because, Love burns too loud in my eyes. You never turn my way, Because to you, I'm just another person. *Image not mine* IMG=F...

Wʀɪᴛᴛᴇɴ ʙʏ Wᴀɴᴅᴀ So desperate to come out above in short comings had, Yet so confused when you’re not called for. Don’t be such a baby, add a little hope. So quick to send out all your love, the heart spends no time learning to love it’s home. Don’t be such a fool, add...

Please don't do this Don't leave me here Alone in the abyss With the one thing I fear I'm waiting for you To get me out You leave out of the blue While for you I shout Come back to me please You're the only one Who can cure this disease But you choose to run I can't let go I'm holding on ...

I don’t have friends. I have flickers—names in threads, voices I chase while lying in beds at 3 a.m. with aching eyes, texting ghosts beneath dead skies. Europe? Canada?? WHAT DO YOU MEAN you’re just now eating dinner while I’ve wiped my screen from crying or laughing or maybe both— then scrolling ...

Hello! This is part 2 of keep your eyes peeled, Chapter 1! If you made it this far I might turn this into a Wattpad book or a post it on AO3 or possible both! But I'm still working on chapter 2, this takes time and I'm trying my best to make it enjoyable for you wall and readable. And please excuse...
