Her Chaos

Her Chaos Is Her Legacy
Rage and Love
Music and Sadness
And So Much Anger
A Girlhood Stolen
A Life Not Fulfilled
Of Trying and Failing
Loneliness, So Deep and Unspoken
She Could Not Love Herself
A Trail Of Tears and Scars
Stolen Moments of Tenderness
Brief Periods of Laughter and Love
Wishing Wishes Upon Stars
Wishes That Never Would Come True
Of Things That Never Were
And Things That Never Would Be
A Heart Ruled By A Damaged Mind
And The Daughter She Left Behind

Shouting At Ghosts

All my anger and tears
Are towards a Ghost.
Someone who is long gone.
Passed on from this world.
To the next.
How does one purge themselves
Of the unresolved traumas?
How do you shout at the Dead?
How do you tell a Ghost,
Why you’re still so angry,
Still filled with tears and rage?
How do you make Peace with the Dead?
