Kellie Teter Poems

Can I trust you?
You say I can
but I won't let myself
I can't get hurt again
...

worry washes over me
and there's no way
that I can stop it
It's what makes me human
...

Life is growing inside of me
right at this moment
it's tiny little kicks
are pulling at my
...

I am purple
I am green
I've been lost
and I've been seen
...

How is it that
I already love you
And I haven't met you yet
How is it that I feel
...

Torture, kill
and crime
we hear these
words all the time
...

He isn't ready for this
no matter what he says
he is beyond frightened
of the idea of having a kid
...

I am in a constant
battle with myself
and always losing
I am one foot in the door
...

I am nothing more
than skin and paint
the writings on the wall
and always will I remember
...

Fear is a feeling
we all feel
it's in our hearts
and in our minds
...
