Sleep withers away

Each new day, in

Such a special way

One that makes me say

I may survive today...

No Way

The sobering silence of waking without you is deafening, but I'd rather be deaf.

Adult

Then one day you wake up

And realize you’re an adult

And you’re rinsing out cans to recycle

Like your father, 

And you’re rubbing your aching hands

Like your mother,

And days whisk by much too fast

For your liking,

And imagination starts to decay

Like they told you would happen

And you’re stuck in a meaningless job

You were told to acquire, so you

Would have something to do for awhile

Which meant until the life was

Sufficiently beaten out of you 

And your will to live was as slim

As the hair on your head, a lost cause

To the society in which you bear

Upon caving shoulders. 

And before you know it,

The world keeps going 

On and on without you

As you lie still in the box you spent

The last few pennies you earned on,

Not even allowed to squirm around

And tell if it was worth it.

May

May I change?

May I grow?

May I take this very slow?

May I breathe?

May I see?

May I blossom like a tree?

May I shift?

May I stay?

May I love myself today?

I'M BACK!

Thank you to everyone who stuck with me through my long hiatus from this account! Life happened, as it does, and my focus was taken away from writing and creating for quite a while!

I'm so excited to be back in action and actually WRITING again!!

Stay tuned for new poems, and if you're interested in my artwork you can follow @artsymagee on Instagram and Facebook!

Thank you all again, I can't wait to see what the future holds creatively! Glad to be back! (:
