the exact middle, she claims
i'm neutral, she says
i don't pick sides, she proclaims
no, no
the exact middle is never
the exact middle
of nothing
we are always in the middle
of something
when i hear her say,
"you know i've never picked sides,"
what i really hear is:
"i don't care enough to care"
"my comfortability, my ignorance, is worth more than someone else's struggles"
"my silence is more important than another's life"
what i hear is you giving up, giving in,
because it's not your problem, right?
no, no
the exact middle
is never
a "neutral" place to be

Day and by night
A girl with no doubt
Still exerts a sort of tidal pull of possibility
I suppose I’m lucky I wasn’t killed in those early days
I learned to be very careful
You know that you are in an extraordinary place
I have greatly expanded my knowledge and understanding of how these work
And probably just in time
Lived richer, fuller, more satisfying lives than you can imagine…
I want them to know that they came from
The beauty of the mountains, meadows, streams, and sky,
That beauty is clear
Blooming Beauty is Boundless
Painless, selfless, endless
It reflects contentment
You should live life based on how you feel,
Extend human knowledge as an explorer,
And always want to fight evil.
Thank you
Peace out
Respectfully

i always said you were the star
some kind of genius
and then right out of the blue,
he makes his garden.
sweetness.
opposite of terrible.
as had been before
what a tragedy that had been,
one of the few mistakes made,
one that proved victory forever
lovers always loved again,
he'd believed that.
a dream of happiness

you never listened to me

my thoughts seem to flow
as a broken record plays
the same part of the song played over and over again
i can't control them
don't worry about it
(i'm going to worry about it)

i do not stray
from the new things
coming my way
. . .
press my lips on your forehead
softly, gently, slowly
taking my time
as if the longer i took to leave you with a kiss
meant the more i'd know about what you're thinking
like the meeting
of my lips
with your warm forehead
would mean our connection would be deeper,
would mean i could understand you more,
would mean i could show you love in an alternative way
than just spinning passion 'round and 'round
in my mind
thoughts like kisses
building up, up, up
until the ******

crash into me
just like the foamy sea water
hits the golden brown sand
of beach street.
loud,
crashing waves
reaching up, up, up the shoreline
i think it will almost touch me,
yet it does not
but the sea makes itself known
to all those who pass by
big, beautiful, blue body of water
hard to ignore
i want to know you as deeply
as that ocean,
further than just the shore's surface
deep, deep, deep
into the depths of the sea
complex and mysterious
an unknown phenomenon
i want to delve into entirely

i want love,
so i give myself
love
i want inspiration,
so i give myself
inspiration
i want freedom,
so i give myself
freedom
i want adventures,
colors,
creativity,
romance,
happiness,
i want peace,
and i want ease
i have spent so much time
so much time
believing
the things i want so badly
could only come from external sources
never myself
i believed
i did not deserve the things
i wanted most
for they could only be given to me
from a loved one,
from a friend,
from a lover
when truly,
everything i wish for so dearly
is inside me already
i deserve to give myself happiness
