Oh heart, if one should say to you that the soul parishes like a body, answer that the flower withers but the seed remains.
People have always told me, If you have nothing good to say. Then say nothing at all. So, now people wonder why I barely speak at all.

Just doing as I was told.
It is 3:00a.m, and a cold breeze has suddenly rushed into my room. These chills seem to have woken me up to have a conversation with the moon. The moon that remains so bold, to shine so bright in such immense darkness. How brave of her to have the ability to harness the tarnished cities of which she oversees.. the battered leaves that tomorrow, will leave with the breeze.. the purest hearts that drop down to their knees in the middle of the street begging you to please, have some sympathy.. the thieves that leave with the keys to our hearts, the ones who said you would never be stranded, yet you watched them depart. She sees the things that wake us out of our coldest dreams. And yet, her energy bleeds to relieve the shackles and loosen your seams. It seems we don't notice those that breathe, unless they play a character in this illusionary theme... a scheme of how things should be in society. She observes quietly. How brave of her to absorb the reflection of tears that fall on our floors. This stillness is something I have come to adore, more and more. It plays jazz music on the deepest depths of my candescent core. The door is open, and from myself, I am torn. I have decided to be bold like the moon's pull that allowed this ballpoint to roll. It is time for me to go back to sleep, and awake reborn. - L.G.

I Am 3 A.M.
Look at her. Do you see how she smiles, so bright and happy? Did you know that she is lost inside? She cries to herself when she is alone. For some reason she just wants to make everyone happy, even if she is sad Did you know that she carries so much pain inside? I bet you'll never notice because she always smiles brightly at you.

Smile
Whenever someone asks you about yourself do you always know exactly what to say? She always says " You have to tell me what you are thinking for me to understand," How can I when I don't even understand myself?

Not Knowing
There is a kindness in your eyes, Always hidden by dark lenses. It bleakens your world by only a shade, But hides the beauty Waiting inside A tenderness in the wonder, Behind those eyes You have so much to give the world Yet Held back only by your own worries of self worth Do not think that you aren't good enough, Because acceptance starts with yourself. The world will value you, Only as much as you value yourself.

For those that need confidence
If you come as softly As the wind within the trees You may hear what I hear See what sorrow sees. If you come as lightly As threading dew I will take you gladly Nor ask more of you. You may sit beside me Silent as a breath Only those who stay dead Shall remember death. And if you come I will be silent Nor speak harsh words to you. I will not ask you why now. Or how, or what you do. We shall sit here, softly Beneath two different years And the rich between us Shall drink our tears.
