Maya Hanson Poems

A
Curse
In my head
...

Today
I could escape
I could become someone better
But I’m standing here watching
...

The feeling of gravity
holding me to the ground
It’s the anchor
dragging my ship down
...

More than a dream
As I stare into your eyes
More than a cover
Overshadowed by your name
...

I'll be your ears
you be my eyes
I'll be your sound
you be my sight
...

Envy is
not a monster.

It is a disease,
...

I see your eyes
I match your grin
I see your thoughts
not just your skin,
...

When it comes to a shot at happiness
I usually run in fear
I put on a show that night for
you, just for
...

I'm tired of being
the regretter
Can't I for once be
the regretted
...

Inside my
head
so
high
...
