Different door to the same house

I can feel the difference in my knucklesHow they clench around my palmThe knock is harsherAnd new again I’m sure I’ve got the right placeJust come a bit too lateThey’ve changed the lock on the doorBut not the gateI can get into the gardenI can lie beneath the leavesI can look up to my old…

Please

You think you could hurt me?Well you didn’t, I swear I didn’t spend nights cryingPryingMyself to piecesLike, why didn’t you care?You think you can break me?I call this character buildingBlocks like Lego Who I amKick it downIve got a new diagramI rebuild myself better each timeYou think you can love me?Try harderPlease

Movie star

Watch me foldWithout my earphonesThe life drains from my iris-esWatch me succumb to the dismay of lifeWithout my music I am nobodyBut with a soundTrackTo BackThe movieI am someoneI am everyoneI am a movie starI am the only oneWho thinks this muchI am meUnapologetic-ally

Falling trains

The train runs through pictures I wish would last longerThe babys crying is muted out by my musicI find myself falling in love with strangersAnd dangersThe water looks so appetising from far awayAnd voices sound so much betterWhen there’s no one I’d rather aroundThe train feels like I’m fallingAs the scenes pass from the back…

Was I?

Was I just an after taste?Of liquor and drugsOf last nights mistakesWas I just a lingering smell?Cologne stuck to your sheetsPut under a spellWas I just your walking stick?To help you stumbleAfter you were sickI never picked apart my feelingsI never ask why I chose youI never lost sight of sailing backCame home still loving…

My room

And my room smells of alcohol againAnd my room smells of meAloneAnd I really like itThere’s something comfortable about learning how to walk myself homeI’m learning how to stumble lessThere’s something comforting about my responsibility only being myselfMy rooms a messBut in my defence there isn’t anywhere to hang anything and there aren’t any drawersMy…

Sorry I’m not good enough What you wanted me to be Sorry I’m not good enough But you’re not good enough for me You try to perfect my flaws But I love my imperfections You try to bring me down But let me teach you a lesson See, I know I’m not perfect And know…

trigger

I sometimes loose control of my body My hands smack into my head repeatedly My eyes water with no end My heart rushes and bangs through my chest This can be caused when I have strong feelings that my brain can’t process. I wanted to sleep for hours and I couldn’t I wanted to feel…

As a woman Ive started to notice sexism in my social life. If I’m seen giving orders it’s “micromanaging” “okay mum” “controlling” where as if a man does these things he is listened to, its “teaching” or “helping”. I allowed myself to be held by men in a way that made me feel uncomfortable but…
