Sterling (06/13/2018) Someone once told me to 'be who you are', Even if that causes pain and leaves scars, But heeding their words I do not regret, I'd rather live true than tell lies I'd forget, But some of you do not live in the...

Tiny Candles
Tiny Candles (04/03/2018) Love is like a candle, It burns brightly when first lit, Dimming and melting away as it ages, The wax running over, Some blow out before their time, Struck by violent gust, While other flames drown, Falling into...
Justifiable Suicide
Justifiable Suicide (01/17/2018) Life has been a struggle, With the darkness in my heart, His voice is often muddled, But recognition is a start, I do the best I can, To walk always in the light, I do not know His plan, It's every...
Synthesis
Synthesis (03/17/2018) I sit alone and stare at the wall, Their footsteps echo through the hall, Protests and their legislation, Have labeled me 'abomination', Red eyes welling with my tears, My body shivers from my fears, Termination...
