“valuable” virtues

Skye Wander

1 min read

My anger is my weapon

It’s what motivates me

To keep getting up every day

But forgiveness and anger

Are not mutually exclusive

I can know I’m in the wrong

But hate you anyways

I can know I’m in the right

And still blame myself

Could I even still remember

If I really, really tried

How it felt before I died

Before the world fried my mind

And now I cannot stand asking why

Why should it matter

If...

Birthday

Skye Wander

1 min read

I had so much _potential_

As a young poet

Every word essential

To me and so what?

One day later

I will be one year older

I need to be greater

I keep growing colder

Just a number

I suppose

My heart contains umber

My blood smells of rose

Not much to show

For 3 years of pain

Theres not much I know

Even less I’ve gained

Why’s it so hard

To be good for your age

Time caught me off guard

Not tired en...

Burning Panic

Skye Wander

1 min read

Running into my room

A feeling of impending doom

Overhead hangs a cloud of gloom

What have I done?

Stars above me glint

The sky, an unnameable tint

I can’t breathe, shit

‘I’m going on a run’

My whole family is a mess

Theres so much inside me i can never confess

I just need a little bit of rest

Or maybe a gun

I’m not wanted here

I am my only fear

My end could be so clear

I flew too close to the ...

What We Stand For || What We’re Here For

_Ray_

D.W. Stares at me like a deer in headlights. Like the first day Byx led her to our hideout. Like the day I lifted a gun to her the first time. Her eyes are chocolate brown with those little gold specks I noticed so long ago. We are not those people anymore. Not those kids so eager to rebel against everything and everyone, we stood for nothing but spite.

Byx and Benjo are by my side, thoug...

Two Years

Somehow still alive but am I the same?

I guess I’m the only one I have to blame

Imploding dreams of music and fame

It is for the best I stop playing this game

My feet will always walk

I’ve half learned when to talk

Words stifled by locks

Even threw out my rocks

Am I a poet

Or a girl with a poem

Maybe I’ll blow it

But one day I’ll show them

I am too forgiving

To live a life of pivoting

From wall...

Lightning

I wanted to be someone

People could look up to

And feel hopeful.

I wanted to always be the person

That gets back up

And keeps hoping.

Still

Do.

Lightning crashes

Around

Me.

Water pools at my feet

Or maybe

It’s tears.

Or maybe

It’s blood.

Maybe this time I cut

Too deep

But my brain hasn’t processed the pain yet.

Maybe this time when I

Fall asleep

By brain won’t wake me up to greet the morn...

A Child’s Terror

Skye Wander

1 min read

I find fear

Beautiful

Not deep rooted dread

Or crippling anxiety

Just simple fear

That of a child

Letting a spider

Crawl onto their hand

In disturbed fascination

Yet flinging it off as it tries to crawl higher

The spider

In as much terror as the child

Always crawls away

Quickly

Who wouldn’t

Honestly

You would too

Fear of the dark

Before you turn on the lights

Fear of death

Before you’ve really ...

3 AM

Is when I first thought of it

A little danger creeping in

_It’s not like I’ve been keeping track-_

No.

_If I could just start over and this time I’ll write it down_

No!

Why can’t I sleep dammit?!

_Just one more time_

NO.

I know what happened

What happens

If I restart

_It’ll help you sleep_

SHUT THE FUCK UP

Don’t you fucking dare

Don’t you-

_Do it, you know exactly how to_

_It’s the only...

A Dandelions Story

Skye Wander

1 min read

Wherever there is light the flowers will find it. Of all the species to survive, Connie never would’ve guessed dandelions. Somehow they were immune to the poison. Connie doesn’t know how or why. Her parents didn’t know when they were alive, even M3, a robot, can’t figure it out.

The clouded sky and thick air suffocated trees, grass, and shrubs (if the toxins didn’t get to them first.) However, ...
