exit

and for the
first time
in a
long time,
the girl
who stays
by the
exit sign,
closed
the door.

stuck

my fear
of mediocrity
sabotages
every opportunity
i have
of leaving it.

phantasm

should i wake up
and find
that this has all
been a dream

i’ll close my eyes
and lay here
even if none of u
should reappear.

i was always
the poet
until
u turned me
into the poem.

i never knew
i could be
so beautiful
in words.

i will

i told him how
happiness has always
evaded me

and then he
chased it down
and handed it to me.

should i take it?

hopeful

i’ll see you tomorrow,
will you still be there?
