You react Viscerally The more Our hearts Open for Each other Confiding In me Your truth A deep feeling A knowing Affirming The fact We are fated To be Growing Slowing Down Gradually Postponing Thoughts of Tomorrow As we sit In today Something Binds us Something Absent of Common sense Makes me Want to Stay

I thought You would Leave me Alone Was that too Much to ask? I know we have Been together For a long time Time does not Always heal Time does not Always reveal What is hidden Beyond the Veil Time does not Mean love Which is what I was in Search of What is what I have Now found In many aspects Of my life As of right now **** here We go again Arguing Being combative With each other I am the first To admit that I do not know Everything What I do know Though Is I am right I am right As the Moon at night I am right You know it Which is why You bicker And nag At me Consistently Trying to Disrupt my Happiness My peace My present You manage To ruin Moments of Clarity You are my Worst nightmare My greatest Fear But you are Always Wrong I am powerful Not helpless I am growing No longer Small The part I played For so long I can be In need And indeed Still be Powerful I am all Of the things I run towards And all Of the things I run from I am All I always Was I am right I always Was

i had to get out of there before i drowned in the desert having swallowed enough dirt back to back i was drowning so deep in the depths of the desert i craved for water the water i held on to afraid to release the water i was searching for came to the surface it poured out reviving the barren valley bringing back the greenery it was once known for the greenery it had not felt in so long

Be careful Of the angle You choose To pierce Through Not every Wound Heals as fast As you have Grown to Expect Your intentions Are good Yet You are oblivious To the privilege You carry Subconsciously Unknowingly Well There is an air Of confidence You possess That makes Many Bow down It is only A costume To you Those closest To you Know the Real you The sad thing Is Deep down You know Already Know the Real you Too

Is this an Actual explanation? Or heightened Trepidation Surrounding Hounding Me I feel good Depending On the hour The minutes The seconds Turn tides Like Fundy Clouds try To drown Out my sunny Days Making moves Steady making Waves Why am I so insecure Somehow I'm An Aries Ain't that Peculiar Sick and tired Of signing these Dotted lines Not superficial I'm just trying To make The climb Feels like Logically I'm Not running Out of time …. I just feel A little Behind Not trying To romanticize Sadness Or be too Dramatic I suppressed It all for years Now I find Myself in a State of madness

It’s like Our worlds Merged Colliding While yielding To each Other A strange Dance Where Turmoil Strikes Oil Transforming Into Something unknown Something Nobody has Ever grown At least Successfully Some say this Is the recipe For a catastrophe But we have The capacity To defy The constrictions Resulting From baseless Fears Fear Of the end Being near Fear That one Day the Vision Will become Clear Confirming Our theories While revealing The lies Allowing Us to Become One with The sky The sun Follows The moon The sky Is No longer A ceiling For You And I

I don’t Drink wine Often At least not Like I used to When I am With you I feel no Need to Speed I take My time Staring at You With Admiration And Anxiety You lead Me to Intoxication While Being in A conscious State of sobriety You bring My flowers To the surface You make me Nervous I find myself With an inescapable Feeling of Service Not like I am indebted To you Or feel Threatened By you But maybe I do You are Too good To be True But Something In my soul Tells me You Are the Truth

Slow down Little one You have Already won Just keep walking And talking And praying All while Staying true To who you Are Trust in yourself And you will Go far Shine like A star High in the Sky You will Not let Life pass You by You will be Born again And loved For what’s Within Slow down Little one The earth will Turn The skies May cry But you My little one You are eternal You Will never die
