I spent 4 years of my life suffering through darkness. / One day I found poetry. / I started writing. / My life began to make sense. / The darkness cleared and I found something I love
Let the rain kiss your skin Let its salty residue heal your pains As its beauty engulfs you Let go Of the people and things That hold you captive. As the clouds release their tears Do the same with yours. Let go Of the worries the consume you The work that burdens you Push it off your shoulders And throw your arms in the air Let go Let the natural dance take over Let the rain lead you Back to yourself Let go Let the rain kiss your skin Let its salty residue heal your pains

Rain
You're my whiskey You warm me up when you're here You keep me buzzing and happy for awhile But once you left my system I was left confused Dazed And with an aching head So breathe into me your intoxicating love Or leave for good Because I can't bare To constantly be recovering from you

Whiskey
You told me you never wanted me Dismissed me like an animal I'm not a thing Stop acting like I don't have worth At some point you'll stop breaking me At some point I'll become numb again I try so hard To be enough for you But I never will be I know you're just "pushing me" But it hurts Your expectations hurt me Because I will never be enough for you No matter how hard I try

Expectations
What if I'm not enough What if he gets bored Like so many others have What if I don't make him happy What if he stops loving me What if I'm alone again What if he breaks my heart What if I hurt So bad that he can't fix it What if this time I don't get back up What if he leaves What if it's not real

What if...
I have a crazy fear Of never being good enough. Always just one step away Just a little less than I need to be. Because I've spent my entire life being told I'm not There's always something to improve Something new to strive for Something I have to make myself into Someone new to impress I've never been good enough for anyone And never will be Because no matter how much I pretend I'm still not good enough For even myself

Fear
him The way he puts the stars in my eyes Like they don't belong in the sky The way he takes away my insecurities Like a parent takes away toys from a child The way he looks into my eyes Like he's never seen anything more beautiful The way he loves me Like there's no other better than me The way his lips melt into mine Like crayons in a dryer The way he makes me feel Like no other before has The way he takes all my pain away Like there never was any The way that he talks to me Like I'm the most interesting person ever his love sets me free

His love
It's so ugly she says The wrinkles on my face I look so old. I turn my head to where she sits She's sipping a red wine that makes her skin start to splotch And I notice the creases in her face And realize they tell a story Her story A story that gives me hope Because her face, Despite the horrible things that happened in her life, Shows happiness She's not old She's not wrinkled She's not defined by her age She's define by her character And she's beautiful

She spent her whole life exploring At age 3 it was dirt. At age 5 it was bugs. At age 10 it was animals. At age 12 it was the world. And at 14 it was boys. She spent her whole life learning. She was a genius. But she never understood him. Her hand never fit in his. He "loved" her But he never really cared. She was never held tight enough. Always kept her needing a bit more. He left her. Yet she still loved him. She spent her whole life changing. For everyone other than herself. When he left she realized She wasn't who SHE wanted to be So she made herself even more beautiful And then she met someone new Someone even more beautiful than she One who's body fit hers perfectly One who held her just so One who truly did care On who loved her And this one? Well he never left He stayed by her side till the end

She
You take away the pain. You took all my broken pieces and put them back together. You fixed me. You make me happy. You give me reason: To live To learn To love myself To care You're my glue You hold me together

Glue
You hold me tighter than I've ever been held before. Your finger tips emit electric waves over my bare skin. The skin on my jawline buzzes with your hand's warmth. Electric shocks sent straight to my heart. Your lips touch mine My whole body's buzzing with that same electric current. I'm helplessly weak in your strong arms. My body has began to melt. In the warmth Of your electric love.
