a.
Raquel is an actress heading to work. She walks into her dressing room and donned her makeup, her outfit for the first scene. She's always loved the theatre. Raquel goes on to stage and plays a happy young woman in a village far over yonder. She smiles and sings and leaps around the stage with joy; her clothes of precious cloths and her face gleaming with an abundance of what the audience can see as nothing but pure happiness. After her performance there is an applause, and after the show's end there is an applause, and after her work day's end there is a multitude of pats on the back and "good work out there today, kid."
b.
Raquel is home after a long day on the stage. She whips off her façade that stops people from recognizing her in the streets and tosses it to the couch. She strolls around her house in the nude, sick of clothing making her what she is not. Raquel washes off the many faces of the day in the bathroom and resists another urge to break the mirror. She cries and lays on the kitchen floor, weary, used, and worn. The tile is cold against her body and Raquel lightly closes her eyes and hums a familiar melody. She thinks of the names of colors. She counts them as she heads along. The tears roll down her cheek but Raquel embraces the floor and her thoughts and keeps the thought that she will have the same day tomorrow quietly and calmly at bay. For now.

15 rainbow
rainbow bracelets
decorate her arm
hiding the scars
from years of self harm
clad in rainbow
from head to toe
he's not afraid
to let them know
we smile and march
with our rainbow pride
fighting for those
who still have to hide

Lotus
She can't know
Not yet
It's still too new to me.
I don't think she'd like me anyway.
I'm not her type.
Too normal
Too plain
Too dull
Only one attractive trait
My expressive blue eyes.
She is gifted with so many.
A goddess amongst ants
The sun envies her hair.
Bright and streaming like rays of sunlight.
Her eyes rival the ocean.
They change from soft blue
To dark, murderous rage
She glides through air
Every step is a dance
Every movement is beautiful
Her voice radiates
To my very core
Each breath is a song
That brings life to all who listen
Her very existence is a gift to all who meet her
She will listen no matter the

.
i want us to have a summer romance
just like we're fifteen
and not giving a damn
about the rest of the world
sneaking out, staying up late
making out, making love
counting stars, counting your freckles
sleeping in your bed, waking up to your smile
i find this place in my dreams
i just want it to be reality
but that's near impossible
when you're so far away
