If I could smoke away all the pain, I'd never stop setting the fire. Even if it'd wash away in the rain, I'd never stop chasing my desire.

Desire
her pretty face might be the first thing that calls your attention but that’s not all there is to her. it starts off with her heart.. oh is that heart nothing but pure and gold. she tends to consider it her best feature. we go into her strength next.. you can believe her strength is most definitely capable of moving mountains. although, she has the tendency of thinking she’s weak. now let’s talk about her soul.. which is truly one of a kind. she’s destined for such big things. she knows her soul pretty well. you know what’s wrong with this girl though? she’s the type of girl that gets too caught up in saving others that she forgets about herself. she forgets to come above water and take a breather. she's made her fair share of mistakes, god forbid they hold them against her though. she’ll literally commit mental suicide all on her own. i wish she would use her voice more, but she’s too busy thinking that it doesn't matter. little does she know that her voice is capable of healing all. her touch can be so gentle yet so rough. i think she spends too much time grieving the things she cannot change that it gets in the way of the things she can change. i feel so bad for her sometimes because when you look into those big brown eyes, you can see all the pain and sadness she carries around all day. when she wakes up on the good side of the bed she tries to stay on it by smiling, talking, and attempting to manifest all that she wants. down side of that is that it will probably only last a few minutes before she begins to drown again. i can’t wait till she grows a little more. i know she thinks that the universe is always drowning her with so many lessons but that’s only because she comes out on top each time and shares that knowledge with those who need it as well. she yearns to be so loved because she knows it’ll fix all of her broken pieces. that girl is me.. i am strong i am beautiful i am pure i am gold i am one of a kind i am loved.

I remember when change knocked down my walls and let itself in. I wasn’t ready for it, yet it still managed to slip in through all my broken cracks. I remember how much anger and rage it built inside of me. I felt so displeased and lost. I remember it only took me a few days to realize that change was the best thing that could’ve happened. I was at my prime, getting to know myself and loving myself like never before. Change is inevitable, you can call it or wait for it to show up and knock your walls down. Just know that you don’t have to be ready, when it comes it comes strong. It will change you. It will make you ready.

Change
“Have you written about me yet?”  you asked. “I write about things that make me sad, you’re not one of them.” was my response. But even as you made me sad, Even as my heart started to crumble. I never could write about you. I am a poet I string stars into constellations And weave words into stanzas. I need someone whose eyes can be twisted into metaphors And the mere sound of their voice makes my hands tremble so gracefully That I can make my magic with a pencil. I was in love with all the poems I wished I could write about you. How badly I wanted to sculpt you with sentences into something Too beautiful to call mine. But you are not a poem. Yes, your eyes are quite a gorgeous blue, And your arms are strong. I’m sure you would make a beautiful painting, An inspiration for someone else’s art. But not mine. You wanted to believe all of my broken pieces could fit in a cardboard box. That's what attics are for, to hide ugly things. You're beauty was skin deep. And thats how you wanted me. I didn't want to be empty. “Have you written about me yet?” you asked. “I write about things that have meaning, you’re not one of them.” should have been my response.

Take me to the place where you get lost and I will find you until the end of time we will wander through this world with your heart in mine

Taken
my heart beats faster faster every time you look at me every time you say "I love you." I grow even more attached my heart beats faster faster faster still.

heart
Fluid and soft she will slip through your hands like water meant not to fill you, but to help you grow. She is not your rock in a hard place She is a tidal wave that breaks at the receding. She is not the light That calls you close But the warmth That keeps You at ends With life
