Haikus of Being Free Soon

This rabbit hole is deep
I am stuck and can’t escape
The dark depths of hell!

Being bored has meaning
You’re at the wrong place this time;
You will be free soon!

I don’t want revenge
I only bring upon peace
Until you fuck up!

Stuck

Stuck

I’m stuck in mud and can’t get out.
This mud is so deep;
It’s really only making my feet dirty.
How to get out? How to get out?
I go to reach for the escape rope;
It seems so far away.
All I have to do is extend further;
But sometimes, a little birdie needs to tell me so first…

Will You Go Demon Slaying With Me?

If I can stand here al day writing poems about you, I would!

Every day I’ve been thinking about you more than I can press my thoughts because you help me put them to rest.

You are my demon slayer!

You are the one who takes my worst enemies and tells them to fuck off.

Being as real as humanity you inspire me to bring upon my strongest and most authentic self.

It’s been so long since I’ve ever felt this way towards anyone.

Maybe you’re what I’ve been looking for all along!

Will you go demon slaying with me?

Hopeful

I wish it was easier to make art with a smile than a grimace…

Lately I have been on a streak of lovely occurrences
While hope is in the air.

Every time I think my world is crumbling, I close my eyes and breathe,
And tell myself I am not homeless, in jail, or in the hospital.

I may not be a holiday person,
But I would like to give as much thanks as possible
And not only on Thanksgiving.

I used to feel super alone and distant from those closest to me;
When I opened my eyes and heart and want to share the positivity every day,
People seem to want to stay.

My tribe is my family.
They help me achieve my best self in the name of love and won’t leave through the absolute worst.

On top of it all,
I used to think I was going to be single forever.
Someone told me you will find love when you’re not looking or trying
And BAM there it is… right in front of me in one of the most obvious places.
Love is in the air
I hope I can stay as bright as possible even with this rain cloud above my head.
How will you stay happy, humble, and positive?

I Dream of Dark Chocolate

I’ve been single for so long
But am starting to feel more full.
Being different has held me back,
And has put me ahead of the pack.

There’s a twinkle in my eye that’s so close yet so far
I wish I could jump into my phone screen and see you.
You check all my boxes and aren’t a figment of my imagination
Or a cartoon character.
My time with you is like a vacation…
A vacation from my brain that takes me to a paradise island!

Only time will tell
I hope we never yell
Except at a rave,
Which you will be my babe.

You treat me super well,
Which caused me to raise my standards,
Though you are far from standard!

The last time I wrote a love poem
It was 9.5 minutes long and the person turned out to be Voldemort from Harry Potter.

You are like the blotter I put into my mouth and see stars, the moon, and rainbows.
My eyes, ears, and heart are wide open!
I hope this paper is tasteless,
So I can take my dark chocolate bar and run with it.

Pinch me!
I hope this isn’t another fucking dream…


Positive Haiku Poems

What all can I do
To be embraced by someone?
Be yourself and win!

Bye negativity
Time to rid myself of hell
Before it eats me!

To win the battle
You must hold it together
To prove your own strength

What is family?
It may not be who you think.
Careful who you choose!

Home is in your heart
Not where other people say
Or where bullies are…

You can reach the stars
Sometimes the stars come to you
Only if you try…

Believe in yourself
Even when no one else does
You must still believe!

Love wins over all
Kindness destroys the evil
The real shall prevail!

Healing Sun

What can make the sun come out today?
Is it up to God?
Is it up to me?
Is it up to some undefined higher power known as the weather, which may or may not be controlled by something up there?

It is raining in my eyes right now.
I see Niagara Falls from a mile away, but have never been.
Going to a new destination would fill me, but I cry so much and my bucket is still empty…

Is there a place where the sun is always out?
Is there a place where a special healing plant is always in season?
Do I have to find the sun or make something happen on my own or can lady fate help me?
Someone please embrace me!

Maybe I have to plant the seeds to make the magic plant appear to help the sun come out and make it warm again?
I’ll figure it out and make my own goddamn sun!

Bye Bye Base

My childhood house is not a home;
It is the shelter above my head and nothing else.

What is home?
Home is a dwelling place with benefits
Like when you’re playing tag as a child and holding onto the pole at the park deemed as “base”

Base is the only place you’re supposed to fully be safe and immune to harm in the game

Now imagine “base” being removed from tag.
You would be running around endlessly struggling to find freedom until either the round ended or you got a game over…

My home life has never been a positive experience.
The atmosphere is clouded with the spirit of Debbie Downer with a  side of infinite stress and my parents fighting all the time.
I feel like I’m tiptoeing on lit coals with criticism in the background disguised as love being force fed into my mouth.

I’m on a mission to find my voice;
Every time I speak a barrier seems to deflect my purpose and overtake my belonging…

Visions in my head sound off to search for direction but have led me to hell and back

Nowhere feels safe anymore;
What is privacy anyway?

My room and car are subject to search even behind locked doors;
The negative energy overtakes the entire space…

Every waking moment feels like a fight against the shadow monsters with your secret weapon being disabled.
Sadly, it seems like the only way to win the battle is to teach myself to fly and flee to find the escape rope to my freedom…

What would you do if your home was the enemy?

Chill the Fuck Out

I’m not ok
The spirits in my heart are trying to take over
Where is the bay?
It’s all over the place…

Nothing makes sense anymore
As I’m trying to escape through the dark depths of hell
What do I do?
I can ward off the demons and chill.

Relax!
Before you fall on over
For the demon to take over
Why must it be me?
There’s a reason for that
Take a deep breath
And make sure to release the warrior inside!

Still hanging in there
Before I get even sicker
I don’t need a doctor
I need a miracle and a prayer
What I can’t see
Is where I need to be
Before the ship sets sail without me…

Take a deep breath
Before you fall on over
For the demon to take over
Why me?
It happens for a reason
Chill the fuck out
And make sure to release the evil inside!

Damn
What the hell is going gin this lifetime of mine
I hope I’ll be fine
Rest in pieces
Is where I’ll go if I don’t feed myself with love and healing
I need to get the fuck out of here
In order for me to see clear
What do I do?
Where do I go?
Just get up and keep on trying
(and don’t ever give up)

Chill the fuck out
Before you wage a war with the demon inside
Why me?
It happens for a reason
Then why not me?
It’s time to embrace life
Everything happens for a reason
You need to make sure to please yourself
So take a deep breath
And be are to release the beast inside!

Take a deep breath
And chill the fuck out
Take a deep breath
And chill the fuck out
Take a deep breath
And chill the fuck out
(and don’t ever give up)

The Lone Shining Light

I want to be happy, I promise!
Though I have never felt more alone in my entire life… until right now.

It is the holiday season right now and all I want to do is work or do something productive.
Part of me feels like I have nothing to celebrate,
While the rest of me doesn’t have a safe place to go to celebrate.
Might as well throw a dinner and trip to the arcade party, party of 1.

Tis the time to be with other people.
During the time I need it most,
You find out how selfish humankind really is.

I don’t mean to be salty,
But my tears taste that way…

Joy seems to be somewhere yonder,
Even though survey says you’re not supposed to seek it out.

I feel so full of energy
With the pain buried down below.

In order to fully shine, you need to fill your own cup.

One of my tables at work a few days ago asked me how I was doing.
I said I was fine with a smile and they immediately called my bullshit.
I replied by saying I was fine in the present moment, which was true, and gracefully walked away like all the people in my life seem to be doing right now.

My pain translated itself into illness, which causes people to disappear with haste.

If the ultimate goal is to spread light, how can you do so when the light is dim?
Illuminate the black, of course.

What if you are the black?

If creatively sorting my thoughts and drawing it onto a notepad is the only way to get people to listen, so be it.

I will continue spreading as much light as I can in this crazy life I am grateful for having.

Learning to be alone is a skill.

One of these days, I will figure out how to touch the stars,
But someone else has the key.
In that case, I’ll go to the moon instead!
