I didn’t realize I was waiting for a day. Not until it sat down at my table for coffee. The months prior to the day had been a twisted turn of my emotional state. I was finding myself in a new place. The friends I had put my truth and meaning into are now miles upon miles away.
I did it to myself. The move to a new state. It wasn’t for self discovery or a new opportunity. I did it to be self depe...
I’m not sure how it happened. At some point the right side had become the downside. It wasn’t until my eyes blurred from the rush of blood that I realized how high above my feet had gone. Seconds turned to hours as I waited for some resolution. I guess I could’ve fixed the problem myself if I really wanted to try, but I felt like this was a problem that would fix on its own. Warmth flooded my chee...
“Over the hill and past the second moon, that is where I will wait for you.” He promised me before the clock struck noon.
“I can’t-“ I began but was stopped by his glistening eyes.
“Don’t tell me when or what you can’t do. Don’t promise me that it’s just us two. Look out on the horizon, where I have shared, and know that I will be there.”
His words were strings of elegant pearls. I wanted to fl...
All that glitters is not gold
It may be silver
It may be bronze
Nothing shines brighter than the love that is gone
All that is sweet is not candy
It may be cake
It may be coffee
Nothing taste sweeter than the words you give to me
But what is not gold and what is not candy
My heart longs to hold the expectations of infinity...
I’m sorry I don’t talk much. My words are all in my mind. The melodies of my thoughts scream so loud that I forget it can’t be heard by all. Know that I’ve thought about you day in and out. Know that I day dream about our seconds spent together.
I fear that my silence had guarded me back. That I have become my own road block on the journey of us.
The colors of the world blend together whenever y...
I only have one life motto. “If you want something done right, you do it yourself.” Easy. Simple. To the point. That’s why I killed him and that’s what I told the cops.
Look, I’ve told you all before. The chocolate was mine. I bought it and I had big plans for it. On Saturday, I was going to crack open a bottle of wine, turn on reruns of whatever sappy sitcom I could find first, and eat my chocol...
“I don’t know why. I just couldn’t help myself.” His reasoning for eating my chocolates.
“I don’t know why. I just couldn’t help myself.” My reasoning to the cops for killing my roommate.
Look, it’s simple. I buy it, it’s mine. Don’t touch and DEFINITELY don’t eat. Or else. It’s written in the contract!
They never listen. Yeah, ‘they.’ This isn’t the first time I’ve had to pay the dues for this...
Reflecting back right at me, a child of who I used to be. She looks so joyous and happy, just wait until she takes that dives. I remember around the age of five, when the shallow end felt like she was in the middle of the sea. How her floats were fun and always by her side. Now at the age of fifteen, she walks along the edge of the pool. I can see her fantasizing catching the eye of every guy. A r...
To the sun that shines so bright. To the bugs that light up the night. I write to you, my beautiful moon, my flying friends, and scary creatures. Songs have been sung to praise your name, but none have been done in such this way. Your eyes are lost to the mountains that grow, all the way down to the sea that glows. Hidden in the dark woods where sound is absent, poets write about your grace. The w...
