❝Suicide (Latin suicidium, from sui caedere, "to kill oneself") is the act of intentionally causing one's own death. ❞ Cover by @_serenay

It felt like butterflies and the feeling you get before you open a present, It felt like going on one of those roller coasters the moment right before the big drop. What Falling in love felt like. His eyes held mine and something burst inside of me, Something that made me feel like all my emotions were going to upheave from my mouth, Or blow me up so much that I might Explode. What falling in love felt like. "I love you....please treat my heart kindly." What falling in love is.

❝I wanted to kiss you, but you told me you don't like the taste of rainbows.❞

Watty's 2019 Poetry Winner An LGBTQ+ Poetry Collection, about the good, the bad, and the sad of coming out, dating, and existing as a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I started so small With nothing to say for me at all Just a bird in a world of birds Just a being who has not much to show for themselves I worked hard though Even when everyone else cast me out Threw me out I stayed strong I battled the forces of nature As they came my way I kept going And learned to fly I flew above everyone else And saw what I had become With my wings outstretched I saw who I am; A mockingbird ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Dedicated to Keefe, who supported me when I found myself lost in the midst of my identity~
