The sea can be calm,
water gentle and warm,
but one wave too big,
the undertow will pull.
Tumbling, struggling,
I am pulled deeper.
Another wave comes in,
released, I am carried closer shore.
Each tow pulls stronger,
each wave taller, longer.
In between the movements,
the water holds my body,
the sun kisses my skin.
I'd like to stay there,
the undertow pulls me in.
The cycle continues
pull
push
pause.
Eventually the tow will claim me,
for now, I'll take in the peace.

I'm going to give you the world
The one I see
I'll give my perspective
My fears and anxiety
The things I dread most
Then remind you of the beauty
The calm of the water and stars
What a real smile can be
Let you into my head
Give you my world to see
Why in spite of my fears
Things work out for me

A million moments told me
We are forever
Through the distance,
Aaand the people
A kiss,
A song,
Dances in kitchens,
On decks
In yards
Near lakes
Under stars
My anchor, above all,
A fireball
Followed by squealing,
Giggling
Clinging to one another
Every reconnect,
The same shower
We didn't know it,
But we were under the same sky
Fireballs above,
You next to me
One moment,
Eternalized in my memory

I've come to a realization.
I dont want the impossible silence.
What is truly crave
Is the sound of water
Rushing around me
Swallowing me
Into its darkness.
The pressure of the depth
Slowly building
As I allow myself
To sink.
I want
To let go
Of all my emotions.
Forget
The fears
And feel
At peace.

wide eyes
empty
cold
crazed
I'm scared
cowering
nearly crying
small
Quick movements
sudden actions
no thought
no control
fear stricken
frozen
uncertain
forced smile
neither of us are okay
neither of us can help
All we can do
Is get past this moment

I'm just another poet,
writing line by line.
I don't make much difference,
I don't put in the time.
I'm just another speck
in the vastness that is space.
and o, how I long
for a lovers embrace

Rose tinted glasses
bring the world into focus
Goals are clearer,
Colours brighter
The clarity I needed
was found with you
Poetic blocks melted
to crystal clear pools
in the light of your love

I went camping alone
Supposed to be pleasant
Reconnect to myself
Disconnect from the present
I went camping alone
Rocks in my back,
Drinks in my bag
How long til I crack?
I went camping alone
I missed your face
It'd been a few years
I craved your embrace
I went camping alone
It felt so wrong
Stars high above
Memories strong
I went camping alone
Drinks in hands
Begging the stars
For another chance
I went camping alone
You didn't know
Stars shot above
I didn't let go

A hole forms as a gap in my chest,
It comes apart when I'm alone.
No.
It doesn't come apart,
It's uncovered.
I use people like patches to cover up my scars,
and yet, here I am.
Alone again.
The hole in my chest painfully grows.

A painful unsilence
Every whisper sounds a cannon
Screams and shouts
Only heard from within
Soft cotton
Turns to velcro on my skin
The floodlight from the sky
Washed colour off my face
And I still wonder
Why my heart begins to race
