she hated her name,
her parents called it creative 

she hated her body
and her sister said she was curvy

and she hated her face 
so, her friends gave her makeup 

but she didn't like 
changing herself like that 

she was more comfortable 
with riding the back wave 

the things no one 
noticed and left unsaid 

her freckles and now lips 
were never mentioned 

her gold highlights shined,
under her hair 

everything like that 
was okay to her 

and she threw her 
frail hands up and said

she didn't care and 
she liked it this way 

until she met 
him

MELANCHOLY | Melancholy drips from my fingertips. SOON TO BE A PUBLISHED PAPERBACK. COMING 2025! This melancholy drips from my fingertips so slowly, you begin to forget I even exist. All of me, the hard parts of flesh you could never seem to love, drips down the drain. I am waiting for the day for your fingers to unscrew the pipes, dig through debris and mess, scrape your heart against the rust, just to find me, so we can go through it all over again. Here, in the pages I find myself, in the ink that writes against my flesh, I will whisper the sadness, the heartache, and the decaying for all of the unspoken. Perhaps under this layer of melancholy, the girl I once knew still exists.    First poetry collection in the series. Original poems based off real life experiences. #12 in poetry.
