A collection of poems
Wanted to sit and process some stuff so just started writing

I feel like writing again - a Haiku
Sitting in the sun
My favourite writing spot
I’ve cried a lot here
-
Prides here
Like birthdays that make time feel like it stops
Big reoccurring celebrations always bring me back a year
To when it happened last
If it was a happy memory
I become sad in knowing that
as soon as it had passed
It became something I lost
If it was sad
I just feel it again
And the present becomes a time
Of mourning
It’s been a year
And I look back
And I just sit
In my grief

Horror movie idea
Commuting to the laundry mat
Weird stuff starts to happen
Guy on the bus keeps screaming
the only door is the cemetery
Girl on the bus who doesn’t speak English who is sitting near him, scared for her
Can’t tell if it’s my drugs talking or if it’s real
I have to warn her
Let her know and she smiles - I can’t tell if she’s grateful or nervous
Get to the laundry mat
Creepy high tech laundry machines
With foreign codes
Calls person that I’m in love with
Wanting to tell them everything that’s happened but person doesn’t seem to care cause they’re busy, said will see me soon
They should be here soon, I think
They said they would come and see me
Hang up phone
Try to distract myself
look at creepy painting in laundromat
Mind spirals into its acrylic face
Fear is the connecting link between everything
Fixating on one part of it that looks like blood
Is this real
Thoughts getting louder and scarier
Is THIS real
Picture trembling violently because of the revolting pressure of the washers
The only way out is the cemetery
Girl that I could not save
Everything is aligning
Focus getting deeper into painting
Can’t get out
Can’t breath
Is this real is this all real
Hear the sound of a bell chime
Quickly snap back to check and see if they came
They didn’t come
They forgot
They will never love me back. That’s the real horror
About the Creator
Tuli
Hi, I hope you feel something from my poetry.
I write primarily for the gracious generation born to lost caregivers
May you one day be inundated with the flowers you always deserved
I also dabble in the genres of the random and corny :)
