Ask your god for a fate more humane than mine.
Because today,
Perseus dies.

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

I am certain I haven't been this happy in a long time yet I still have no motivation.

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

Don't forget me when
I am depressed and don't tweet.
Sometimes, it's too hard.

#haiku #DepressedButNotDefeated

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

It's not that I don't
Have feelings and emotions
I feel too deeply

I pretend as though
They do not exist so I
Can pretend I'm strong

His lips, slightly rough,
From his five o clock shadow.
It irritates me.

Green brush on the sink,
Who actually owns you?
Not one of us knows.

Let me fly and be free, because on the ground, I can never be me. #micropoetry #poetry

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

After my attack, I was no longer me. I wasn't even a husk of me because I was a new me altogether. I viewed life as death's lesser half. Death was the ultimate goal of life. To rid a toxic world of a toxic person.

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

"Fuck it" is not the easy way out. It is the hardest decision I have ever made.

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

Learning to walk away is a lesson no one ever intentionally teaches, but is sometimes the only good someone brings to your life #micropoetry

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

It's important to remember when trying to get over pain
That hurting is natural and sometimes doesn't needed to be medicated. Sometimes, our pain pushes our boundaries until we can truly say "fuck it" and mean it.

To fully trust an individual again is both terrifying and cathartic. I thought that part of me was broken, but here we are, heart in heart. #micropoetry #poetry

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

@RealisticPoetry Much like a leaf in autumn, the heart too finds itself abandoned. Dry and desolate. Fragile, needing only the smallest amount of force to shatter it

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

2/2 I will no longer stand idly while the men in this world bully me. I am here to play and goddammit, I am here to stay. #poetry #Feminism

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

1/2 I am a woman, strong and proud. I will never again back down. Don't tell me to smile or say please or I'll bring this motherfucking world to its knees.

I am not asking for your apologies, because they don't matter to me.
You aren't sorry and you never will be.
At least now I can move on knowing it was you who was wrong. #poetry

Overcoming assault isn't hard because I was attacked. It's hard because my trust was betrayed. #survivor #poetryinmotion

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

Classic literature is proof we have been experiencing the same pain for hundreds of years. Now we use different words to express our fears

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

@RealisticPoetry I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart: I am. I am. I am.
--Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

[Olivia Green @HaphazardPoetry]

Some days, I find myself lost in hell
With no way to escape.
I scream. I cry. I yell.
But I feel as though I'm in a bind.
