Rat Race

Posted on May 8, 2021August 13, 2022 by Erin B.
Is anyone happy?
They are living in blind optimism
with the ugly rat race,
desperate suburbanites who
never could quite understand
beauty or love.

So Much More

Posted on April 26, 2021August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
Living is so uncertain
and hard
but I feel there is 
so much more
purpose
instead of a future so black.
I want
to never be afraid.
