Sniping away sleep,
not a shadow of remorse—
espresso, clean shot.

Sniping away sleep,
not a shadow of remorse—
espresso, clean shot.

Hidden in plain sight,
as the middle child, ignored,
blossom in a bush.

Casts them in neat rows
without a toe out of line—
world can’t restrain youth.

Pining for nurture,
hangs such succulent despair;
unnourished nature.

Cruel world forgets—
hyper-focused on the self,
that others exist.
