Zooey Lichty Poems

C alming they make me feel
H ere right now
E verlasting thier beauty
R ich with honeyed nector
...

The grass is soft
I just want to lay here forever
and day dream
The sun kisses my skin
...

small and delicate
wings like butterflies
skin white as snow
voice just as soft
...

dainty and petite
wings like dragonflies
skin as blue as a sapphire
voice like tinkling bells
...

Did you know...
I wanted to kill myself for a year
Did you know...
You hurt me more than anyone or thing else
...

small, thin, frail
That’s who-
That’s what I want to be
sorrow, disease, fear
...

My wrist look small, thin, and weak
I fear I have a disease, but I have no sorrow for it
I feel weak, I am shaky, I AM angered
I feel joy
...

I saw a Young child today
so Innocent and sweet-
and wearing blue
I asked him why
...

I was so Happy earlier today-
where did that Happiness go?
I want it back!
...

I open my window so that the imaginary man can look at me
So he can stare and gaze at me
My mother warns me “Close your blinds! Someone might be watching”
I secretly think -Let them watch
