Perhaps
Perhaps if I didn't say
Perhaps I'd be okay
Perhaps I'd be able to laugh at the pain
Perhaps I'd see sunshine in the rain
Perhaps I'd be able to love
Perhaps, though, I would not

@hollow-boned

anyway there was a shooting in my love's county and one of the shooters was trans so he dressed more fem for the day because he was afraid someone would pick on him and i got really sad so i wrote a thing.

please, drop your weapons.(i'm on my knees.)

there is so much ugly.
men with guns and words and
women lying dead and
kids with mind and body
bruises and
my lover can’t bind cause he’s
afraid and
i'm sobbing in the shower because i've
got to hide him and me
until we’ve aged.
no more. no more.
i want to drown all of this in
love,
flood it like
the melting snows in april
until we’re all soaked to the bone
and see each other clearly.
until we can touch and hold and laugh and
know
that we are not each other’s peril,
please. all of this anger –
it's breaking my heart.

@TeamMezzo group

Okay so I wrote more

Perhaps
Perhaps if I didn't say
Perhaps I'd be okay
Perhaps I'd be able to laugh at the pain
Perhaps I'd see sunshine in the rain
Perhaps I'd be able to love
Perhaps, though, I would not

Perhaps if I was smart
Perhaps you'd know my heart
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps.
Perhaps you'd finally know how I see you in the sun
Perhaps you'd understand how you twinkle when there's none
Perhaps when there's no light, you'll shine on me from afar, because
Perhaps, my love, you are my guiding star.

14 Million

Humans making excited noises
Too many options, not enough choices
Too late
Too late
What did the angels feel when they fell down?
Earth's one gray circus, and we're the clowns
We don't understand each other, I confuse me
As kids lay in blood, we talk about bees
We're so numb to ourselves, it's just normal now
We're so bent with our work, we can't even bow
2 is tragic, 14 million's a statistic
The knights are only there to taste the princesses' lipstick
Later
Later
I don't mean to pry, but I'm just so curious
Why would the Creator want to keep making us?
Goodbye
Goodbye
In this world, the saddest eyes aren't red
They're drier than the bones of the dead
Tongues sticking, pale faces, jaws lock
What we're walking through is not mud, sticks and rocks
The fingers spasm from years of mental age
The pencil screams as it crosses out the whole page
And to the hopeless from birth, who couldn't breathe enough to pray
There's no sad song chord, not enough flower bouquets
There's never any time, no attention to pay
There's nobody left to just take one second and say
sorry
sorry.

@Periwinkle_

It seems like
the only thing I can't do
the only thing I can't be
is me

I set sail
across the wide sea
I ran free
faster than the mighty wind

I've painted masterpieces
I've sung songs
I've done good deeds

I've been good
morals stronger than steel
I've listened
learned
read
studied

and still

the only thing I can't do
the only thing I can't be
is me.

@Idontunderstandthatreference

Today I cried,
Because I realised that love for me,
Wasn’t roses or letters,
Wasn’t holding hands or kisses,
It was texts and pictures,
It was ‘u up?’ and ‘wat u at?’,
The love I want,
Only exists in daydreams and tv shows,
The love I want,
Isn’t real anymore.

(I’m sorry this one is literally shit compared to the other ones. Especially that one by @Bandito, loved that one.)
