And then he sent her photos,
of sky and moon and stars.
That’s when she knew,
he aimed to catch her heart...
Nonexistent cares,
and a what not of tries.
Trust in love,
and all will fall into demise.
Lines in the rift,
of being behind her eyes.
She’s sorrow ladened again,
but no one hears her cries.
Inked to the page,
in his last words she sighed.
She’s just a storm collector,
with h...
She gave everyone she knew a star in the sky
so anytime she looked up she could be greeted with the comfort of familiarity
To be reminded of the love both given and received
The stars were what she liked most about the sky, after all
She became so familiar with looking up that she created maps in her mind
Each landmark representing someone she held dear
and the journey they shared
The stars were...
Her Sunshine
Glowing like honey,
The sweetest known
Days with her, warm and sunny,
Those around her tend to grow
She lived among the stars,
Not hers to see,
Never too far,
They did not shine as bright as she
She longed for the stars,
And the life they provide,
But when she was around,
They all seemed to hide
She was the sun,
The warmth in the sky,
The bringer of fun,
never ques...
Her joyfulness and energy were what the girl liked about her little sister.
However, her energetic and happy persona started to fall after starting high school.
The spark in her eyes dimmed out, replaced with a distant, emotionless gaze.
Her laughter once vibrant, was replaced with silence.
Though, it still lingers through the once lively halls they used to play in.
The sister she once knew was j...

When people die
they leave things behind
making you believe that it’s only a matter of time before they come back
That their not really gone
just missing
A pack of cigarettes taped to the underside of a dresser after he promised he would quit
A stack of unopened mail just waiting to be opened by his careful hands
A knife left out from the last time he made a meal f...
She told herself
“That’s gonna be you one day”
Shinning so bright
Everyone who had refused to look
Would be amazed at her brightness
“They’d wish they didn’t give you up”
She’d whisper to herself as she lay on her roof
And it would be true
They’d all finally see
What they’d been missing out on
Because this girl
This shy, weird and out of place girl
Would finally be where she was meant to b...
And in the beginning it was there with us
And it’s there now again
And it giggles winks and stumbles
I escape into you
Flight of fancy hard lessons learned
What is just is just now and before
And we are where we are now
And how long here we differ
As we embrace you begin a brother
And become someone else
As if it might yet happen
your hugs tighten and warm
And then could my intention

At the the moment I arrived
I felt his intensity as I laughed with the women
And he was looking
I felt it
I tryed to look over but his light was too bright
A man sweet rugged good natured and fun
A man so magnetic I could barely stand still
We connected with eyes electric and the smiles we exchanged
and smiles were enough
After the party we continued our pull
So strong I felt weak
And when h...
Stars above, please guide me to see
That there’s something out there, something waiting for me
I look to the skies and I wait for God’s sign
That the path will show up with their light as my guide
Praying for the universe to wake up and see me
Wishing so hard on a star that can’t help me
I look to the stars to help me find a way
now they’re just falling to the ground and even they won’t stay
Drea...
The stars were what she liked most about the sky. Until they started to fall.
Crashing to the ground around her
Nearly as hard as her tears
The sky is impossible to look at
Now that he is there
Gruesom and eccentric
But that was the part she liked most of all
He claimed to be heartless
An absolute monster
But from the truth
it couldn't be farther
He accepted her even with the scars
As s...
