Baby blue tastes like American Spirits and cheap liquor too,
Looking at him I know there’s nothing more I can do.
His jokes are growing stale, his laugh is the quietest in the room
Looking at him I know he’s accepted his own doom.
Baby blue is one more drink, one more mistake from fading away,
And I can’t watch him spiral anymore so he tells me that I can’t stay.
I kiss him on the cheek on his stained leather seats
Choosing to walk alone, willing to bear the Summer heat.
Baby blue has the prettiest eyes even when he’s yelling at me with anger.
I know his longest love will be his lifelong infatuation with danger,
but Baby blue thinks I’m the villain, so he’ll hate me until I’m a stranger.

Hey! I'm Alanna.
I've been writing poetry and short fiction stories since I was in middle school. I'm now 23 and have graduated college. I want to take this time to share all of my creative writing with others who have similar interests. I'm starting this blog to explore new prompts and ideas. My biggest passion is poetry but I have a love for any and all types of writing.
While I use this blog to share my writing, I'm also hoping to explore freelance writing opportunities. I can't wait to start publishing my writing on here!
A little bit more about me, I was born on the west coast but have lived on the east coast for most of my life. I graduated from college in 2019 as a Sociology major. I'm a lover of cats, coffee, horror movies, rollercoasters, night time walks! You can always follow me on my Instagram for more information and daily updates!

Great insightful character study! Really conveys that aching regret of a loved one who’s slowly slipping away from you through their own self-destruction. Raw and heartfelt poetry 🙂
