and I hate that. 
I hate that you're nice to me.
I hate that I have to be nice to you.
I hate that I have to be around you. 
I hate that someday I will be related to you. 
You say you love me,
But all I feel is hate.]]> 2021-11-01 23:19:14 UTC https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860016550 Slam Poem https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860017102 Whittling empty hours
Hearing of happiness
I wouldn't know

A limo or corsage
Was not in the cards
Instead I'm here

the last day to hit the stage 
my microphone in hand 
standing on the stage 
the lights are so bright 
the last time i'll stare into them
i sing 
and then i'm done 
i sit down 
i put my cap on 
i walk up on stage 
take my diploma 
i sit down 
the ceremony is done 
i stand up and walk away
time to start the rest of my life]]> 2021-11-01 23:20:41 UTC https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860018318 art26587 https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860018345 An impactful day? 
I don't even know what to say...

The day my sisters came 
screaming into the world? 

The day we got that phone call 
and the nurse brought me a chair 
because I couldn't stop crying

The day he kissed me for the first time
or the last time we said g o o d b y e 

365 days in a year and I cannot
even think of one in my life 
to tell you about right now. ]]> 2021-11-01 23:20:43 UTC https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860018345 https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860018722 Breaking through the dark
Fluorescent lights blinding
Grunts heard from above
Beeping echoing 
Bouncing off the walls
First breaths taken
It is I
Now born]]> 2021-11-01 23:21:04 UTC https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860018722 sgf18741 https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860019314 On facebook it read: 
"Looking to do a best friend photoshoot" 
"Let's do it- all 3 of us" 

A week later... 

Yelling and screaming in the car. 
Awkward silence. 
"We can take pictures - otherwise don't talk to me." 

All because you were late? 

Against the brick wall
Smiling with my best friend 
I turned around... 

to meet you on one knee

our forever and always began that way. ]]> 2021-11-01 23:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860019314 Nobody likes me If only you could see. Nobody loves me Everybody treats me like I’m three.You were the first to see me. A writer you said I’d be. You let me know you loved meYou loved me and I knew you were the key I know somebody loves me You gave it for free I know you love me And loved I’ll forever be https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860019964 2021-11-01 23:22:21 UTC https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860019964 kmm53862 https://padlet.com/nsb18973/ou1b7wm7e274aisp/wish/1860023281 "You dodged a BULLET back in January,"
she said,
when really I was hit right in the chest.

"I don't know why
you would try again,"
but I don't expect you to--

because you didn't see the blood
drip down your legs
in the shower.

You didn't hear
the splash
in the toilet
and know
it was over.

That was MY baby,
and this is my baby too.

I don't think you'll ever understand,
but I still love her,
and I think you too.
