Zooey Lichty Poems

Why don’t you love me?
Why do you love her?

I like you more than her
...

I hate you
I despise you
I love you
...

I hate you!
I hate you!
I hate you!
...

can I force you to love me?
can I beg for you to love me?
I look at you and her and my hear breaks
it shatters and falls to the ground
...

Do not judge Me, for being Me
Do not criticize Me
For if You do-
all I have to say is Ubuntu
...

Nate Pez,
There are so many things I want to
tell
You
...

YOU STOLE ME!
How could you do this to me?
We’re family
...

I like writing it’s all I want to do.

But I don’t know how to do it.
...

Remorse sits in my stomach like a piece of stale bread
as I wandered lonely as a cloud
And down they forgot as up they grew
like Misery love company
...

my heart is like an ocean
cold, dark, deep and black
with strange, dark, mysterious things
hidden in the depths
...
