Authentic Vibes Only

 Please stay away
Your toxicity has been tested positive
I'm not going to let you ruin my day
Your comments are so dismissive

I'm sick of pretending to be okay
Don't go telling me that you're just a phone call away
Sometimes I regret, writing down how I feel in an essay
There you go, invalidating my feelings when I'm trying to vent
This leads to a messy argument
Don't waste my time with your toxic positivity
I'm all about authentic vibes only

When I say authentic vibes only
I don't need your negative vibes draining my energy
I gotta go to my physical therapy
The gym is my first love, get in the bin with your derogatory
I'm sick of suppressing my pain when I'm feeling down
These stupid suggestions make me feel like I'm in a ghost town

These false feelings make me feel like I don't exist
I'm sick of feeling unheard and dismissed
Feels like a scar growing on my wrist
As I disappear into the mist

You better watch your back
I got mine and I'm gonna keep on track
I got priorities to savour
Ghost me, you're doing me a favour
The toxic positivity you speak
Makes you weak
Don't tell me to look on the bright side
I'll never be like you, I won't swallow my pride
Don't tell me to smile
Being authentic is my style

You're just as annoying as a mosquito
Oh my, did I hurt your ego?

Panther Eyes

 Born in December 2017
You spoke to me with these sweet little meows and with eyes so serene
I remember the day you touch my heart
Your melodic purrs mend my heart that was torn apart
Your silky black fur keeps me safe, keeps me sane
Erasing the pain

These panther eyes ignite like the moonlight
Your love & loyalty also protect me at night
These panther eyes
Always has eyes on the prize

The only way to summon you is to shout tuna
Sometimes people thought I named you after that cat from Sailor Moon, Luna
You're a boy, I called you after Donnie Darko
You're very much like me even though I'm a Virgo

These panther eyes wake me up like the sunrise
Our yawns synchronise
Your cute little nose and paws shine like leather
Me and you don't like the hot weather

Sleeping comfortably on my lap
Constantly climbing through my window, you don't need a cat flap
I'll always carry you in my arms like a baby
I'm proud to call myself a crazy cat lady
You're a pretty kitty
Let's drink bubble tea
