My name is Holly and I am 25 years old. I am from Collingwood, Ontario, Canada, but for the year I’m living in Australia. At the moment I’m a house cleaner but normally I babysit young children. My poetry is not for everyone but it is a part of me – a part of my soul. I hope you enjoy it.

TODAY
Today I want to commit suicide
Tomorrow I’ll be elated
Next week I’ll be sad again
And the week after I’ll be jaded
Same ole song just different station
Different days
Same temptations
Have to keep this smile
Have to keep my reputation
It’s simplicity in complication
Today I love you
Tomorrow I can’t get far enough away
Next week I’ll be completely confused
And the week after I’ll beg you to stay
I love this song don’t change the station
I close my eyes
And everything changes
Different song different situation
This is my life
This is my creation
Today is today
And tomorrow will be different
Next week I’ll be present
And the week after I’ll be distant
