my mind,

it pushes against me

yells at me

screams at me

makes sure I know I'll never be enough

I know

I know

I KNOW.


my heart,

it punishes me,

makes me fall for people

who will never feel the same,

because come on,

look at me.


and my stomach

it says it is hungry

but my mind says no.

guess I'll drink some water,

same thing.


"YOU'LL NEVER BE ENOUGH"

my mind never shuts up


I know

My Mama

🪻Delphinium🪻

1 min read

My Mama warned me about the boys,

who would treat me like one of their toys.

Break my heart then heal it,

a cycle i'll never understand.


and my Mama told me about the men,

who would rate me on a scale of 1-10,

pick me apart and give me a score,

as if I don't know I'm a full 1,00.


My mama taught me all about the people,

who instantly label girls as tiny, petite, and feeble.

"Cross your legs!" (a...

Oh-So Bitter

🪻Delphinium🪻

1 min read

It seems everyone my age is finding love,

but not me,

never me,

never enough.


And it seems each of my friends are finding someone to hold,

but not me,

never me,

I'm left cold.


So I zip up my pretty dress,

and put on a pretty smile,

but God knows they haven't seen anything genuine in quite a while.


I don't got a boy and I push my friends away,

and I have no-one to blame,

when I'm stuck with my ...

Are you the same as I?

🪻Delphinium🪻

1 min read

Hey you,


Tonight do you also wish I would call?

Do you also want to forget it all?

I guess sometimes the pain is worth it for the fall.


Are you the same as I?

Going through old pictures, dead of night?

Maybe we could've won if we put up more of a fight.


Can you tell what words I want to say?

That thought of you rushes through my mind everyday?

We all have a price for love, and that was ours to ...

You never asked

🪻Delphinium🪻

1 min read

You never asked but,

I've learned quite a few things I'd like to share.


I wouldn't say I'm scared,

but I've learned now,

that the world isn't always nice.


the punch didn't land,

but now I know

that girls can hurt,

their bark worse than their bite.


don't believe them when they say I'm broken,

though that's at least partially true,

but I promise I'm sort of strong.


Don't believe them when they ...

Paper cuts

🪻Delphinium🪻

1 min read

Yes or no,

Left or right,

I have to know my path.

Because college is coming,

And I’m stuck running,

All because of my past.


The future is calling,

But there was a time,

When I thought of hanging up.

Because life cut me at every turn,

Death by 1000 paper cuts.


But the phone still rings,

And I don’t know.


I didn’t have a plan for this far,

And school keeps raising the bar,

No matter how hard I c...

It isn't real

Fate.

Something I love to believe in,

but know isn't real.


because fate?

If fate existed I'd have found someone by now.


Dances are coming up,

my friends all dolled up for their boys,

while I sit on the sidelines.


I know I'm lovable,

and quite cute (if I do say so myself),

so then why does no one else see that?


Electric blue dress,

Dolled up,

but for me,

not for someone.


self love isn't quite...

The Poet Girl

🪻Delphinium🪻

2 min read

Her eyes are the kind to flick over you, deciding whether or not you are worthy of her time. Cascading dirty blonde hair falls onto her back, though that is the least interesting thing about her. 

As she brushes her hair back behind her ears, the faintest trace of a tattoo is shown on her wrist. She glances my way, and her lips tug up into the barest of smiles, before she turns back to her work.

Strong

They say I’m so strong,

But i shouldn’t have to be.


Yes, I can carry my weight and yours too if you’d like,

But why did I have to?


I’m so strong,

That’s true,

But I didn’t deserve that....

Right…right?

You.

Why you?

You did this?

But why dear friend?

Did you mean to send,

Those words to me that day?

Did you mean to stab my heart?

I’m sure you didn’t really truly mean it,

That it was all just a joke with me,

That I didn’t get right, yes that’s it, that’s it.

No, you couldn’t have mean those words that hurt me so badly.

It was all a mistake, yes that’s it, that’s the real truth.

Because you never ...
