Unlocked

I accidentally left my heart unlocked last night 
Completely vulnerable and totally alone
I'm sure it was afraid
I woke up in panic but I quickly remembered that there is nothing to steal
Nothing to steal 

I already gave it all away

Saturday

Today is Saturday. 
No work, school, or responsibilty, but the Earth is still orbiting around the sun and life can't be put on hold. 

Today is Saturday and this morning I was excited.
Breakfast and smiles shared with friends are making me feel naive now.

He was a son, a brother, a new engineer, a climber, and I just saw him last night. 

The truth is that tragedy has never owned a calendar and while we take weekends off, it most certainly does not. 

Tragedy is overworked and it's probably exhausted. 
It strikes and it strikes and it strikes- 
But it doesn't care that today is Saturday.  

Please, tragedy, give yourself a day off. 


He was kind, smart, and he will be missed dearly.

Things That Make Me Queasy


An unfortunate side effect of being a human is our sensitivity
My sensitive skin won't stop acting up and my stupid hormones are making me queasy 


These are the things that make my insides stir


The thought of blood or a trip to the dermatologist and forget it- I need to sit down 


The thought of an afterlife or what that even means
Everyone keeps telling me to find God but heaven is starting to look a lot like late night bonfires and holding his hand 


These are the things that make me queasy 


The first day of middle school and hoping I remember my locker combination 
36-24-18
36-24-18 
I will never forget you 
36-24-18 


Sick to my stomach when I was asked to speak in church and when I found out our uncle was back in rehab 


The side effects of being human 


Taxes and too many funerals and grade point averages and the stain on my favorite sweater and-





Im making my own head spin
