Finally drifting
Riding with the wind
Floating across the sky
With pretty, soft clouds
Watching the world
Adrift
But what if
I get swept up in the winds
And these peaceful skies
Turn to hurricanes
The wild winds
I know so well
Twisting and spinning
Not knowing where
But knowing you’re going
Someplace, somewhere
With no control
And my mind is back in that moment
Calm and comforted
Realizing that...
Our souls are stars
Glowing inside of us
And if we were to see
Inside of our bodies
They would be in a galaxy
Our two souls
In the same galaxy
I know your soul
And you know mine
But too far away
They each appear to twinkle
Showing off a glimmer
But never the full brightness
Only a flicker of your star
Reaches my heart
As I slowly fall in love
But we’re solar systems apart
So I know your prese...
“I thought you loved me!”
“I did, I always did! Did you not see that? Was everything I did for you not enough?”
“No! It wasn’t!”
“What more could I have done?”
“You could have decided not to leave me! You could have stayed. Instead of running away from our parents, forgetting that you had a sister who was still stuck. And you stayed away. You didn’t come back for holidays and you didn’t write ...
Christmas used to be so full of smiles and everyone talking and laughing; Everyone was happy and together.
But now I wonder if we’re going to have any part of that; I wonder if I’ll have anything to resemble what it once was.
My father is in another country, my brother Jayden drove his motorcycle to another state and didn’t look back, my brother Asher is trying to find something in the world th...
to feel how i feel
like i’m in the wrong place
i could’ve gone a different direction
what feels like the right direction
so close to where i am
but unreachable
i can imagine her
and then
and what they come together to be
i can see her standing close
but not in the same place as me
it’s like that girl
is who i was destined to be
but i never will
no matter how bad
i crave it
and watch her
i feel...
She forgets
Loses her memory
And her ghost
Slowly fades
From existence
And I live beside her footstep
Where her figure should stand
Where it could
Where it would’ve
But no one understands
It’s etched deep in my soul
Crested in my bones
She can’t leave
She’ll always hold my hand
Even if it’s stone and stone
She’s there,
No one else can see
But I hear her words inside my head
I know just how sh...
You didn’t mean it
And I did
you say that you did
But you didn’t mean it like I did
You didn’t
You didn’t mean it
Like I did.
When I said it
I meant it
Fully
And passionately
I meant I had been dreaming of it
Looking up at them
And watching them
Every moment they pass by
Wishing I could get a glimpse
Into their world
And what it’s like
Dreaming
Of a day
That I would be there
And I would get t...
i cared.
i cared about you
and about us.
i cared about holding your hand
and walking with you in the halls
i cared about talking to you after my day
and hearing about your dog
i cared about you.
i cared about knowing your favorite color
and your dream career
i cared about who you wanted to become
and all your silly jokes.
i didn’t care about me.
i didn’t care about getting enough sleep
or how...
my lungs taste salty when i think of it.
when i think of how bad i want her
how i want to stay with her,
seeing her each day
in class and at rehearsal
my breath gets shallow when i think of it
when i think of never hearing her rant
or hearing her pretty laugh
or watching her from the other side of the room
because pretty soon
she won’t be in the room.
my heart beats faster when i think of it
wh...
