  • your heart is an empty room.

    The piano sounds Apple says I listened the most to in 2024.

    Her hyperness when her meds wear off.

    The green of his eyes I see every time it rains.

    Good morning texts.

    Holding of hands that once shielded the abuse.

    My blue couch.

    The tone of her voice when she says, “GUTTER BITCH or titty baby”, her fake Italian grandmother’s accent.

    Blue

    Showers too long.

    Giggles, stories, jokes.

    Seeing her face walk through the door, knowing she won the war of getting out of bed.

    Cinnamon Tea, and coffee, Hallmark movies.

    Doris Doloris, who will be the biggest heart break of all.

    The shock in a broken face meeting strength for the first time.

    The Professor getting excited to tell me about the girl he likes or the sex he had.

    Books in The Nook.

    Blankets and hockey sweats.

    The end of the day when I lay my head down and remind myself this life is real, and I will wake up still safely in it.

    Smells of honeysuckle, sugar plums, and favorite flannels.

    Lovers that forever stain the walls of this heart.

    So much feminine rage and way too many damn shoes.

  • On that winter day…

    She decided she loves winter. I fucking do. I love the cold and I love the winter. I need to find winter friends. On that winter day she realized she doesn’t have any winter people in her life. They all freeze and turn white or they can’t survive in the lack of sunlight. I need a winter person I can snowboard and then bake cookies with. Oh my goddess I need a winter person in my life! I’m going to put an ad on craigslist.

  • you can’t have the winter

    I won’t let you take this one from me.

    I love snow.

    I love the winter.

    Hockey games & sled riding races.

    Every year since the first year I stepped into snowboard boots, I have counted down the days for the moments on the mountain.

    Snow boots and big coats.

    I won’t let you take this one from me.

    My skeleton screams.

    Like old rusty gears.

    My nose burns sharp spikes of pain.

    My fingers throb from unhealed bones.

    The cold doesn’t work for us anymore.

    My ribs stiff and sore.

    I won’t let you take this one from me.

    Snowflakes on your face.

    Chilly nose while breathing in the smell of hot coco.

    I love cozy blankets.

    Seeing my breath as I run with spikes on the bottoms of my shoes.

    Shoveling driveways for a quick 20 bucks.

    I love the crisp cold.

    I won’t let you take this one from me.

    I will suffer.

    I will freeze and I will ignore, because I love the cold and I won’t let you take this one from me.

  • hazel shade of winter

    So is life.

    Not white.

    Not black.

    Somewhere in the middle.

    Relationships with most people.

    My sexuality.

    Memories of my childhood.

    If you’re colorblind.

    Most of the clothes I wear.

    The third bar.

    Meditation.
