Today was a dream
Unconsciously I worked
Whilst the mind wondered
Dissociated hard at work today and daydreamed while my body performed medial tasks on its own.

Sometimes love is a bug
That you have caught in a jar
You must let them free
Jarred Karsten Nov 2019
Roll it, light it, smoke.
Puff puff pass it to the left.
Take a deep breath, relax.

Those days are long gone
Memories trapped in the past
We have grown apart
Jarred Karsten Nov 2019
You were standing there;
Our eyes met, I saw that smile.
Thats when I was sure

The trees keep growing
The flowers keep blossoming
Shouldn't we still grow?
With everything happening in the world I find it strange that people always say thats how it's always been or that is how Ive always done it. Life is continually growing and changing into a better you. Don't stunt your growth

Some days seem real
Feeling grounded where I stand.
Other days slip reality
Like floating
                       away
                                 in
                                     a
                                       dream.

I'm not okay but
Day by day I keep going
It's getting better
One step at a time. Take it easy, it's okay to be not okay; just don't stop trying to get better.

I don't deserve all
the love I've been given
But I love you all

Gazing upon stars
Illuminating the sky
Even after death
Sometimes I get lost in the night sky wondering how many stars arw actually dead but we cab still see their glow of life

I should start a farm
of sheep so I'll have enough
To count when I sleep
Jarred Karsten Nov 2019
I saw you crying
And even for a moment
I saw the real you
Jarred Karsten Nov 2019
I glance at my phone
Look for a glow that's not there
Then I check again.
Sometimes we are all attached to our phones waiting for the next reply from a close friend or lover.

Yesterday is gone
Where will I be tomorrow
Still in the present
You cannot change the past; you can only plan for the future. While you are always stuck in the present.

Pondering dark thoughts
Tossing and turning in sweat
Yearning for slumber
Jarred Karsten Jun 2020
You'll find me again
Hopefully by then you've changed
I hope I will too
Sometime people meet at the wrong point in their life and you have to let each other find themselves independently. Hopefully our souls cross again
Jarred Karsten Nov 2019
I may seem fragile,
but I'm tempered by the flames
of pure devotion.
Jarred Karsten Nov 2019
Beers had with laughter
Bondings had with hugs and tears
Life-long memories
Jarred Karsten Nov 2019
You don't always get
everything you've given out
back, and that's okay

— The End —
