I am storm clouds, written by Lorraine Fae

[kaytpoems]

misty melancholy mornings

the sun hides behind clouds

made of gloom. i close my 

eyes to dawn, too. am not 

ready for a day dressed in 

dew. maybe i will hide where

the day cannot see me either.

orchid blossoms

(11/7/23)

in the summer you will already be fading written in petals⠀⠀falling to the ground something rare in your beauty many rush to capture it fleeting not many really understanding why you exist gently and fiercely open palm and open mind now that the blossom is overturned will they know you were here before?

i’ll never feel clean

my skin has been raw 

and itchy. i have scrubbed 

myself one too many times

trying to get rid of you, and

yet i still burn.

~K.T.

[kaytpoems]

can’t forget

or maybe i refuse to. holding

each touch like a faded picture

i cannot feel anymore. i can 

only catch glimpses of a version

of me, not as touch-starved or 

happy. something in between

madness and content.

ribs made of glass

every morning i breathe

until my lungs break the

cage. i spend the day 

plucking shards from 

inside myself. i learn to 

inhale quietly.
