You cross my mind at night as i lay myself to rest.
“If things were different and I was in a better place.”
Wrong.
You were consumed by your absolute of what you wanted.
What you wanted was not me.
But you kept me as a place holder.
Throwing crumbs as a token of appreciation of my efforts.
But they were never enough, were they?...
The clouds are capturing the light,
The garden that surrounds me is green and vibrant,
The cars parked are covered by little droplets of rain,
The ground is clean, but worn.
The lights are dim, but noticeable.
My clothes feel fitted onto my body.
My hair is tightly pulled back out of my face.
My bracelets are slightly too tight on my wrist.
My socks are on perfectly, just how I need them.
I can ...
It has happened so many times.
My mind and body,
A war zone.
I can’t help myself, clearly,
But each time it’s too late.
The first time it happens,
You blame yourself.
Like if you did something different it wouldn’t have happened.
It probably wouldn’t have happened,
To you.
That day.
But it would have happened to someone else.
Because what you fail to realize is that it’s not about you.
Terrible p...
Every day seems the same.
It’s the new age kind of love.
Working for ourselves and looking down on the one who is losing the race of success.
Together but separate.
It’s an anxious kind of love.
Messy and unkempt like an old oak tree.
Each branch reaching for the light,
But it gets lost in the growth and loses direction.
When we are together, I forget I’m growing.
It feels like we just place holde...
How does one truly understand someone?
Complex and multi leveled like high rises in the city
Doors closed and walls taller that what can be comprehended
As time moves, you can open new doors and explore,
But you never get the full picture
A beautiful idea of a soul trapped in concrete
I know you existed in your true form once,
Luscious and magnificent
The true sight of what is pure
You may think ...
The warm summer breeze caresses my skin
Kissed by the sun,
I can feel every piece of my body
I can hear the songs of the earth calling to me
The grass whispering in my ear, it wants me here
I am just but a spec in this natural existence
The trees towering over me, swaying with the songs of the unknown
I am captivated by you
Your smell creeps into my thoughts
My existence is consumed by your call...
