I want to keep all my writings in one place while I& #39;m learning to improve my poetry
as sunrise beckons
and stars fade to blue
I catch myself lonely
and thinking of you
your steely gaze and
few words said aloud
i& #39;m not on your mind but
I just want to make you proud
and stars fade to blue
I catch myself lonely
and thinking of you
your steely gaze and
few words said aloud
i& #39;m not on your mind but
I just want to make you proud
i imagine that your chest feels like a bed of flowers
like laying in the grass
like soaking in the sun
but i imagine under that, caged beneath your ribs
waits a chaotic heart close to bursting
waits a storm of love and endless hurting
how do you contain that heart so well?

i dont deserve it
the rough kisses, the big gesture
i don& #39;t deserve it
grand meals, hope from conjecture
i don& #39;t deserve it
your empathy, a soft spoken lecture
i don& #39;t deserve it
and i cannot
take
the pressure
the rough kisses, the big gesture
i don& #39;t deserve it
grand meals, hope from conjecture
i don& #39;t deserve it
your empathy, a soft spoken lecture
i don& #39;t deserve it
and i cannot
take
the pressure
some days i feel like a re-animated corpse
they pull my strings from above,
they make me dance in the shadows
i watch with no remorse
until i am re-buried in
the warmth of my blankets
and it occurs to me that it was i
it was i
it was i, all along
they pull my strings from above,
they make me dance in the shadows
i watch with no remorse
until i am re-buried in
the warmth of my blankets
and it occurs to me that it was i
it was i
it was i, all along
I long so much
to feed from the sun
grass between my toes
nourished by the earth
mother nature will hold me
lift me from the weight of the world
I so wish that she would hold me
long before I hit the dirt
to feed from the sun
grass between my toes
nourished by the earth
mother nature will hold me
lift me from the weight of the world
I so wish that she would hold me
long before I hit the dirt
Fresh bruises
Upon ancient scars
Firm reminder
Of where we are
Say please and thank you
Don& #39;t drop the smile
Perfected the act
For a long while
Under the boot
I see the moon
I know light is coming
I& #39;ll be free soon
Upon ancient scars
Firm reminder
Of where we are
Say please and thank you
Don& #39;t drop the smile
Perfected the act
For a long while
Under the boot
I see the moon
I know light is coming
I& #39;ll be free soon
I live in the fantasy
Where your eyes gaze into mine
Maybe your heart flutters too
And we are together somewhere
Bright and green
I live in the fantasy
That I look like your dreams
And I smile at my reflection
With no fear of loss
Hope lies still
Where your eyes gaze into mine
Maybe your heart flutters too
And we are together somewhere
Bright and green
I live in the fantasy
That I look like your dreams
And I smile at my reflection
With no fear of loss
Hope lies still
