to calm the storm in my head...
when you suddenly realise your in love with your best friend. the one that was there when you were in yr 8 and were going through your "I’m ‘creative’ with my fashion" phase the one who was there when you liked all those guys and embarrassed yourself in front of them the one who was there when you developed that eating disorder and hated everything about yourself the one who was there when you became the very ***** you never thought you’d become the one who was still there after all the **** you went through with your dad the one who helped pick you up from the ground when life kicked the living **** out of you the one who you never thought you’d ever find attractive. the one who made you laugh until you cried the one who creeped up on you without you really noticing the one who swept you off your feet even when he didn’t want to the one who you know you’ll find very hard to stop loving.

'Lisbon, OH' - Bon Iver
Turning signal lights flashing like uncoordinated fairy lights Beams of street lights conforming to the windscreen of the car Radio static filling your ears like bees in an angry hive Petrol fumes disappearing into the night like clouds High beams temporarily blinding you like the sun does when it wakes up Faces blurred as you pass like birds in fast motion Anonymous. Distant. They do not know me, nor I them.

Night
Heaven, like nature it is wild Yet at the same time beautiful Loud and yet speaks with a whisper Powerful yet touches you with all the gentleness in the world It cannot be tamed And yet we always try to hold it in our palms It is touchable and yet some people spend their whole lives without seeing it It is there and then it is not. It is ours and yet only through His Grace.

Heaven
I've been searching for you Under the bed and atop the universe You've left an imprint that I see Even when I close my eyes I searched until I collapsed Into a tangle of sheets and tears Emotions binding me to myself My mind a jumble of paperback books and okays I'm sliding into oblivion

Searching
Whispy whisps of whispering clouds patrol the country side in search of space Filling every hole and pocket of sunlight Turning the world a never ending grey Objects coming to greet me only to rudely leave Soft, still, quiet I know this is beautiful Nothing moving, all creation stopped still in sight of this wonder Dancing slowing in front of my face I can't touch it but I can feel it It's in my hair and caressing my face I can smell it fresh, clean, ominous No escape and somehow not wanting to I am transported. some call it clouds, fog, I call it beauty
