Poem: Thunder

A Haiku

Rumble and roll are

Words we use to try to calm

The sky as it screams.

A Haiku

A busy bee and

A sleepy me - neither of

Us can fall asleep.

Poem: Globe

The little globe on my desk

Spins tales for me of the city where we met –

And where you said you loved me

For the first time with your easy summer smile –

But as I twirl it with my finger, so smoothly,

Like you had me wrapped around yours,

I feel a sort of relief in knowing

That I don't wonder where you are

And what you’re doing anymore.

Poem: About Moving On

Romantic love, lately,

Has brought thoughts

Of stories and fiction

To my mind; I feel a

New kind of love for

Myself as I realize that

You aren’t the first

Person who comes

To mind anymore.

Thanks for Reading!

Hello, hello!

Today my blog reached 50 followers! This is (very) exciting for me, and I wanted to thank you all for taking the time to read my poems and choosing to stick around for more. (Special thanks to @poetryportal and @writerscreed for the reblogs and mentions, which helped me in reaching a larger audience!)

To celebrate, I posted three poems. I hope that you like them! Also, my asks are open (but I prefer obscure asks if it's something about me)!

I'll keep writing, and I hope that you'll keep reading!

Thanks again!

Poem: Coffee Dreams

I smell coffee in my dreams

Because I live on it when I can’t sleep –

And when the caffeine has worn off, my jaws

Widen with each unavoidable yawn
