      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Dear Mum, There are still times when I go to call you. It seems inexplicable to me that you actually died. I used to wonder how it would feel, and after 16 years, I’m still not sure. The main thing I want to tell you is that I get it now. I understan

      This book is dedicated to a rock climber:

      You showed me how to fall in love with life

      and gave me my first taste of freedom,

      as well as peace.

      Both of which led my ink stained heart

      to the mountains within yours.

      Thank you my love, for being my muse.

      I wish you everything your heart desires and then some;

      Never go in search of love, go in search of life, and life will find you the love you seek.

      - Atticus

      Teenagers

      We drink,

      we do drugs,

      and fall madly in love;

      but don't you know

      that this is all a show.

      We're hurting inside

      and can't let it go.

      If you follow

      our love will grow.

      Maybe it's because someone died today,

      or even yesterday.

      Maybe it's because someone is starving today,

      or was put in prison

      for the wrong reasons yesterday.

      Our parents tell us,

      You're just young you don't know anything

      Oh don't you know

      we know more than you,

      with the shit that we've been through.

      Gen Z

      This is our generation.

      The rules that the people of before have set,

      have worn us down

      and made us tired.

      The old ways must be changed.

      Try and come at us.

      We dare you.

      Because we are young

      you act as if this is a game

      and you'll surely win.

      I assure you,

      we’re not playing.

      We are here.

      Here to forever change it all.

      As We Fall

      Can you not see them falling?

      Falling off the edge of oblivion.

      Can you see their anger hiding

      behind the flames and their tears

      washed away by the rain?

      Where do we go from here?

      Oh, can't you see us?

      Can you not see us falling?

      You hate what you don't know.

      Oh honey, come and join the show.

      You can fall along with us, but you say

      I'm scared to fall.

      What you don't know

      is that we have parachutes

      on our backs and you would've known,

      if you had given the lost a chance.

      First Love

      I didn’t comprehend it then

      but you, dad, were terrified of me.

      Scared of a six-year old little girl.

      You were terrified of my voice.

      You were the first love of my life.

      Or at least you were supposed to be,

      but love doesn’t treat you

      the way you treated me.

      You silenced me.

      Even though you were gone

      I continued in silence.

      My voice is raw and pure

      because I’ve never used it.

      You let me be there,

      but then became afraid I’d tell what I saw.

      I lost my voice.

      I didn’t know it was okay to speak.

      I searched for you in many ways

      trying to replace the hole you left,

      but that hole can only be filled by me.

      By a little girl who lost her way and her voice.

      Beginning

      She didn't know if she wanted to fly

      or stay grounded.

      She didn't know how her life would turn out.

      Yet, she knew one thing.

      She knew that she wanted someone

      to inspire her,

      before she fell in love with them.

      So she waited and she waited.

      Until one day,

      she met a boy behind a grocery store .

      The stars in their eyes knew that they were it.

      Because as the two of them

      looked at each other that first time,

      they smiled because they knew.

      New Love

      Maybe it's the way you laugh,

      or the way you smile.

      Maybe it's how you look at me,

      or the way you see the world.
