Maya Hanson Poems

Is that all you care about
making people feel
like the ugliest thing
in the world
...

I’m so confused
so I let down my guard
I float myself out into the night
And there in my garden
...

Thoughts flow from me to you
How can this be
Can’t hold this anymore
What does the world expect from me
...

Woah oh oh
Can't you sing a line
Woah oh oh
You wanna make me smile
...

I stand there and watch
as you drive away
If only you saw
in your rearview mirror
...

My eyes are only half open
Why shouldn’t I fall asleep
My arms are shivering, shaking
Why shouldn’t I let go
...

Dear Maya,
A part of us died today
with your defeat
in the battle
...

Collapsing,
waiting
for someone to come find me
...

Piercing eyes
sunk in black shadows,
a reflection
gleams in a pool of
...

I’m tired of the
back and forth
banter,
...
