fleeting love

one bloody second

in love 

paled  the bluest

sorrows

#katyamills

blue.

blue periods long

after writing

blue periods before 

writing

blue periods when 

unable to locate

the words

#katyamills

star free remix


i am star free i am
overcast sky

all the bad habits i
traded them in 4 something more predictable
something more certain

uncommon

i blackened Hollywoods
digital rolling
eyeyou are blue you are chaos

you remind me of my old self   
gripping hearts between  

thighs

no longer unmoored 

i am star free cloud-based
outlandish

i am grateful
i shot myself out of
the sky

#katyamills

seattle revisited

walking

wide awake eyes 

blue eyeliner jumping like a heartbeat

the blonde valet 

the architecture lopes to the water’s edge 

in this uphill town

time for café au lait

feels like rain again the ships

they head to sea

#katyamills

play 2 win

goth girl 

off work 

threw her apron in the bin 

hit the bodega

voted blue

a dream play to win

AME AND THE TANGY ENERGETIC BY KATYA MILLS

swim in blue

i finally used the key to open the gate and let myself in. summer was over and i was thankful. i set the water in motion, immersing myself complete. what a sensation. i left it alone and a trail of dripping wet. above and looking down from where i hung my clothes, i noticed the light show. a translation of my form. a liquid print. what was left of my rhythm. illuminated by the sun in blue. something understood me.

beset by beauty

blue periods I have had

in life

 

the clearings

the most unlikely places

beset by beauty

 

the shared memory

gather it in your arms

 

hold it to your heart

tell the story

if you can

blue 2

she was not sad. she hid in the mountainside when the rains came hard like tropical noon. once tranquil she was now and then a monsoon. downcast from time to time. rivers caught the swollen tears of fortune. she irrigates our lands. so to feed our children. for to carry on and on and on

she may have been depressed but she was not sad she hid in the mountainside when the rains came hard like tropical noon. she once was tranquil now a monsoon. the blue lady was downcast from time to time and only we were lucky to catch her swollen tears in our banks. we irrigate our lands and feed our children for to carry on and on and on and on…
