U&I&ME&U

Nikkie Prosperini

 

 

I only write words

You assume they’re about me

But could you do this?

 

Writing disclaimers,

for my own poetry, sucks.

read it as you will

 

*My poetry is nothing more than words I place on page. While they mean everything to me, they are not necessarily complete manifestations of myself. Please, read my poetry personally. Don’t take it personally.*

 

Question

 

Do u hear the voice

screaming inside my head for

u to save my life?

 

LoSiNg GrIp

 

god falling faster

where am i? where are you now?

no where is frightening

 

Why I Can’t Sleep

 

tired eyes. Awake.

night terrors at twenty two

just sleep a little

 

Your Turn

 

I’ll give you 3 tries

Describe me as a poet

Ha. I bet you can’t.
