Guardian Angel

Guardian Angel
(April 2011)
I am no ordinary girl
I strongly believe
That I can do ANYTHING
I am capable - strong
And in control of my own life
I have been through a lot
- Nothing has killed me yet
I am independent
I can take care of myself
While I'm at it - I can take care of you
And the rest of the world
- I often do
I am a daughter, a sister,
A friend, a counselor, a teacher
- A problem solver
I am stronger than I look
You can lean on me
I CAN take care of it ALL
But - That doesn't mean I want to
I want my own turn
To be spoiled, protected, and sheltered
I want a partner
As strong as I am
Someone to say
"I know you CAN, but you don't HAVE to."
I want some one to help me
Not because I need them to
Just because they can
I want someone who
Wraps me up in their arms
And holds the world at bay
- Even if only for a moment
I know I COULD take on the world alone
But I'd rather not have to...

Broken

Broken
(April 2018)
I think I’m broken
My emotions are running rampant
I react to everything with tears
My emotions are hightened
I feel everything more
I love more than usual
I hurt more than usual
My eyes leak so easily 
If I am happy or sad
It doesn’t matter
Every emotion brings tears
If a baby is really cute
I cry
If a friend leaves me on read
I cry
If I see something beautiful
I cry
If I do poorly on an exam
I cry
If you say something sweet to me
I cry
If you frustrate me
I cry
You can call me what you like
A hot mess 
A beautiful disaster
But, honestly, for me 
I just feel broken

Make Me

Make Me
(June 2017)

Touch me
Grab me
Hold me
Make me stay

Notice me
Want me
Love me
Make me care

Hug me
Kiss me
Fuck me
Make me scream

Ignore me
Forget me
Leave me
Make me cry
