I Hate That I Love You

Tiffany Erwin

1 min read

I hate that I love you

I am plagued by you

I hate that I crave your words

Even though they come from wicked fangs

I am your burden

I am your punishment

I am your reminder that sometimes…

Things do get worse.

I am what you think you deserve

Your self deprecating choices

I hate that my heart is bound to yours

It’s unfair

I have been someone’s punishment since birth

And that is my punishment...

She Paints Skies

Tiffany Erwin

1 min read

Hidden amongst these four walls

A shell of a human lays still

She longs for love from other humans

Though Her heart remains cold and ill

Alone She stays, painting away

For Her own heart, she will fill

She paints the skies the brightest blues

Clouds white with silver lining

Prairies vast, cascading flowers

A sun that never stops shining

Butterflies, bees, moths, and birds

Never subjected to dying...

Strawberry Sorbet

Behind the door

We hear dad snore

Its time for us to play

No one knows

Our secret though

Weve kept it til’ this day

Under the floor

Is a hidden door

thats where the secret lay

The smell is bad

But dont be sad

Shes better off this way

Dad thinks she left

Its for the best

I know that sounds cliche

But That wasnt her

You see the fur?

She looked at us as prey

She howled at the moon

clawed into...

Tumbling Granny

Tumbling Granny

Flipping around

Scared of nothing

Not even the ground

Feet flopping about

She did lots of flips

If she knew you were looking

She also did splits

Her hands held up high

She ran down the hill

At an olympic speed

To show us her skill

She ran too fast,

The hill to steep

Her single steps

Looked more like leaps

But tumbling granny

Never fails

She muscled up

Tough as nails

Her arms ...

Little Friends All Around Us

Tiffany Erwin

The forest floor holds many tales

Timeless as the tides

Look closely, dear, as you can see

The creatures which reside

Overlooked and underloved

The ones that call this home

Crawling, squirming, inching about

This world is theirs to roam

Under all the mushrooms caps

The frogs stay safe and sound

Look a wee bit closer

For spiders can be found

The snail is in no rush to move

It crawls in its own ...

Oh, To Be Warm

Oh, to be warm

Wrapped in someone’s hands

Comforting and aromatic

Only few will understand

Oh, to be warm

On a cold winters day

To cast away the sleepy eyes

While waiting for flowers of may

Oh, to be warm

While the sun peeks through the sky

The dewy grass envies me

As I’m cuddled up warm and dry

Oh, to be warm

There’s nothing quite like this

A warm cup of coffee in my hands

Oh, to be warm… pur...

Changing The Day

I woke with a pain in my chest

Full of disdain and unrest

I stretched out my bones

While the birds sang their songs

And suddenly my day was the best...

The Last Call

I wake to another panic attack. Not unusual but it never gets any easier. Something about this cabin just hasn’t felt right since I’ve been here. My wife used to love this place. Since Lilly’s passing, no where feels quite like home anymore. This feels like the empty shell of what used to be my life.

I shuffle to my feet into my house shoes, grab my phone from the nightstand, and pull the cord t...

A Pirate’s Tale

Tiffany Erwin

3 min read

With only a handful of shillings left in my pocket, I take a stroll. What have I left to lose?

The sound of freshly shoed horses echos through the alleyways. I make my way to the pub downtown. I might as well pick up an ale with the last of my earnings. I enter the pub from a door in the back. Years of piracy lead to a keen sense remaining in the shadows. I make my way through the back of the bre...

Bad Santa

Where are you Santa?

Where are our toys?

I woke up this Christmas

Drained of all joy.

The tree is empty

No stockings were filled

We hoped you would

Leave us some blocks to build.

This house full of cobwebs

Makes us so sad.

We’ve been waiting for years

For our Mom and Dad.

We can’t leave this house

We cant run away

Stuck here for eternity

Just wishing to play.

People come here at night

To temp...
