a withered plant
can't flourish in winter
but we couldn't wait for spring
Irish Apr 2021
am i not worth the effort
anymore?
am i not worth trying for
anymore?
are we not worth improving for
anymore?
am i asking for
too much?
am i settling for
less?
i know
we cannot be perfect
but is not our love
worth reaching that for?
im not sure how much
i can take
any more
hurt
and any less
effort
can our love still last through
or is it just me?

Time is so fleeting
It's like living in a dream
where nothing seems real,
but with a genuine feeling of weights on your shoulder

Life is so heavy
You are running towards something
while some are running away from something else
But the weight we all carry,
are too heavy for one to bear

Love can be freeing
Acceptance of oneself, is the realization that
each baggage we carry, we need not carry alone,
nor carry the whole way

Pause
and Love the Time Life has given us
You may feel alone,
but I hope you find the courage
to grasp the present and never lose sight of your goal.
You are braver than the fear you hold.

My Love, oh how i miss you so
how the days go faster,
but time seems so slow
like a never-ending waterfall,
flowing, but with nowhere to go.

sometimes it feels like waves-
sombre tides upon the ocean.
but sometimes they feel like shockwaves,
jolts of electricity, and of overwhelming emotions.
My Love, oh how i miss you so
please make the days go faster,
and light our Love that was once aglow.

there was a young girl
who knew so little
yet felt so much
such strong emotions
she did not think of as unusual
but as she knew more and more
of the things she was not aware of before
she started to wonder
perhaps she was better off feeling nothing at all
for when you have felt so low
you know you can only feel so high
and that when you are at the bottom of it all
why even ever try to fly?

struck
like a deer
in the headlights
stuck
like a fool
in the moonlight

I wish I knew how it felt
To feel so strongly for someone
To see something so special
Invisible to the world
To be so immersed
To be so blinded
That you see nothing else
But one
Though the fear within me
Keeps me from hoping
From wanting it so fully
Wishing I could just reach out
And find my hand
Entwined with another
Tangled by fate
Or perhaps by something more special
That when the fear of falling
Seems nothing
And that when you land
You land without hurting
