i just want to be with my
glittery things
a jar of brightness
in a"room of my own"
every woman needs a room of her own
to paint for
herself
ideas and a way
in which she would like to walk
and twirl
and believe
it is tiring
bending and collecting things
sharp and dull
forced to sit in a room with
disappointing looks
and loud loud shrill
noises
but that is not what it
would be like in my space
not a trembling mass
of ungrace
and deep
creased brows
i do not know
how to smile where i sit
under soot
i wish i was a better kind
who can playfully turn dark
to light

i dont belong
what happens when you know you
dont belong
and there is no room
no room for you to think
to even act
because youre suffocating under the weight of what you are not
and how you do not have a heart
big enough to love the people right around you
the people
who deserve the most love from you
all i can think instead
is
how to tread waters and get
get farther and farther away
then carve
carve for myself a little space
a space big enough for me
and my dreams

From the movie "Lovely Still"
day filled with snow
staring up into the branches of trees
overwhelm by the beauty
"I think I have wasted my entire life..."
"No. you only have right now. Lets be happy now."
