CONTINUE READING POST Third year Screenwriter, Zarah Botzer sends us her poetry in this week’s Writers of SVA.
Aesthetic
I like your chipped nail polish
and black coffee breath
Braid my hair with yours
your lavender shampoo is lovely
The roots in your curls are my
aesthetic
We put stickers on printer paper
and call it art
You sharpen your pencils with a blade
air for drama
But your laugh is
sort of
sad
Introduce me
to your closet skeletons
your dust is my solitude
There’s nothing romantic about your
coping
Wish I was younger
when I had
little
to be blue about
