Far away from all the things that truly scare it

I am in this moment.

Now

Present

Aware

Sensing surroundings

Essence abounding

“Take care of yourself”

Heard often but hardly heard at all

Coz Now

I hear, and

Make myself a meal

Nourish

Drink a glass of wine

Cherish

Read, mind holding fast to words that whisper hope

Watch Saul Williams scream worlds into Existence

Words of resistance

I am aware

Of distant yearnings from who I would like to be

A me I wouId like… or maybe even love

So I listen to my soul

Whispering dreams

Murmuring hopes

Uttering flimsy futures floating on the wings of time

So much to learn

So much to see

So much to be

So much

But the journey seems long

So march…

Maybe it's another high, or maybe it's a realization. But whatever it is, i like it.
A lot of pretty good things happened today even though today was still bad. But it's okay. Things will be better soon.
Your lips seductive, as always,
whisper my name
and I answer from point blank ,
I'm grateful.

Look to the heavens
outside your window
Beyond evergreen branches
and moon song shadows

Gaze upon every star
your eyes do see
Twinkling like pearls
on a black velvet canvas

Pick one that shines
the brightest on your heart
and that star will be ours
in the universe of love

And know, as you sleep tonight,
dreaming of every tomorrow
This light will protect you,
for it glows on all that we are
Good night

People believe in love at first sight
but when I met you, you just seemed alright
When I first saw you, I didn't think much
but you stole my heart after the first touch
I haven't even know you for a very long time
but that doesn't change the fact that you're always on my mind
I do not know what I would do
if I did not have you
Thank you for always being here
you make me feel like you really care.

Love,
Sabrina
To the perfect boyfriend who I have not found yet.

I can't help to stare whenever she is near, she catches my eye like an annoying, fly. I want her dearly but my friends are telling me that I'm not seeing clearly. They tell me, I'll take a bullet for her but she won't break a nail for me, I'm constantly denying it saying no she won't set me free. They try breaking it down in scenarios saying I don't need nobody, but yet they are in love head over heels. They ask me why do I persist, why do I continue to chase her if I know how its gonna end. Well its the same reason why you choose to date a friend. It's for that L.O.V.E. I get a high off of complements and hugs but the only people who will know this is at reading and hearing distance of these words. Its not that I think she's the perfect person or the hottest one but its the fact that I've been a sucker for love. When I write stuff like this I might as well replace my ink for blood. Cause every time I wrote in blue or black it resemble something my heart wasn't but look at now, I might as well get the draining of my blood now because my heart no longer holds that color . So my friends ask me again will I still chase the wicked witch of the west who gives me a uprising from my south every time I see her full moons. That answer is not yet determined but trust me I'll pick my poison soon.
another poem of mines i found about my ex after the big ex
I may smile on the outside
But it's all one big lie.
I'm dying inside
Tearing at my akin
Just so I can feel, even for a second.
You tell me I look fine
But little do you know
That I'm one step off the edge...
Teetering...
Waiting for a reason to stay.
You say I look happy
But I'm not.
I starve to feel worthy,
I cut to feel alive.
I think of suicide as a way of ending this pain.
I don't want to die
But I no longer want to hurt.
So what's that...
I look fine?
Little do you know behind my smile
Lies a thousand little secrets
For the hearts of the free and the home of the slaves.
