16/Non-binary/Pennsylvania The good times never last long enough
I've never minded the cold pitter patter or puddles or purple skies with lightning reaching out to touch the earth, even for just a second and neither did you. you embraced it the smell the sight of streams and streaks and sounds subtle drumming from above and took it with you. now every rumble shakes my very being every strike forces me to draw back not knowing if I fear mother nature or the memories or what I don't know or what could have been but I do know that with every storm everything becomes real and I get my feet wet again and again hoping I can, someday reclaim the rain.

Reclaim the Rain
The heat you can feel on your skin From the ray of sunshine shining through the window Warmth that fills you from the inside out When you laugh so hard that you cry Moments that you remember That have lasted throughout the years Smiles from strangers that Force a smile upon your own face Because these moments Are what make a lifetime They let you wake up in the morning Give you motivation to live Everything is too good to be true I tell myself they're fake These people are twisted and untrustable Memories are unrecognizable Why are you doing this? I ask myself, but I create new moments in my head Of things that may not be real But they give me hope That one day they will no longer be lies But my wonderful, real, beautiful life

A lone boat sets sail Unknowing of what lies ahead Or if it's journey will fail But the sailors are not filled with dread Because they are still innocent And the sea is simply magnificent.

Sailboats
drip drop it trickles it's cold yet warming I shouldn't like it but I do. red like a pool of rubies red like the deepest anger the deepest regret the deepest passion you can feel the heat of a thousand heartbeats you feel alive then all that's left is numbness.

Blood
People are changing as I stay the same Leaving me behind as they grow. I was only ever a game. I've always known That it was a matter of time Before I became old. They pulled and plucked at my Heart strings Until worn and broken. They dirtied me for Their own pleasure. I was new and pure, Now I'm used and nobody wants me. Everyone has grown out of me. Like an old baby blanket.
