15/F/Connecticut She told me only the few can craft words just right, / / But she didn’t tell me only the limited get the ink onto paper to be placed on a shelf,
Never ever  I told myself 2 years ago Never I said to myself 1 year ago Not happening I told myself 6 months ago But it happened 3 months ago And i could always go for more when the opportunity is there Swallow my nights memories to forget Waking up remembering a headache Not this time I said last week But now this is all I will probably ever seek Alcohol A drink that can **** One shot at a time

Take her
I wish I could cry on your shoulders But you have been gone for the past week I wish I didn’t have to carry  these huge boulders But you have more important things that you seek I wish you were here But you seem to be over there All I can do is wish Twice a day 11:11 am and 11:11pm And they say wishes come true So where’s mine?

11:11
I knew i should have went for it when i had a green light free to go I also knew i should have when when i had a yellow light and made sure i proceeded with caution But now i really should have stopped when i saw the red light because that was my stopping point and i treated it like a green light And now here i am, stuck at a yellow light carefully stepping, where to go, what to say, or even do, just waiting for a green light to tell me its okay to go

Red Light Green Light
Goodnight moon Goodnight world For the joys you bring And the lessons we learn Tomorrow's a new day And we can try again Even if we fail we always have the stars And we can always say Goodnight moon Because the moon will always shine in the light full of darkness -Elizabeth Selmi
