American I write what I feel and sometimes translate thought into poetry. I hope you enjoy! Feel free to add me I would love to see what people who like my stuff have in common with me
I truly do enjoy the cold But sometimes I long to hold The gentle hand of you nearby But then I always start to sigh Like the coldness in the wind I think there's love around the bend But when I place my hand up to it It melts away frost stuck to it Just like the cold in winter time I wish I had you all as mine For when the cold then starts to form I cannot help but feel...warm

Cold
At the back of the dark below the deepest well behind the darkest shadow I left myself waiting for me to come back In the great halls of an immense library I found myself lost Wondering if I would find my way out Such an immense stretch of knowledge An ocean raging on Will I ever find the shore I woke up on the beach and started to travel My journey took me to the deepest part of the forest The darkness overtaking me That's where I found myself Asleep in the bottom of the pit Submerged in the back of the dark

At the back of the dark
23 must be that golden number. the number in which you are old enough that most of your most impactful memories are now almost 10 years old or more. What really seals the deal is that I see things from 2 years ago and I feel like time really has flown. What happened to time being so slow to pass? One year may as well have been 5 back then. Now time goes by too fast. I just wanna be 21 forever. If not for blink 182 I would be wonder what my age was again.

I took a walk in the woods today flowers burned a sunlit yellow the trees so tall I scaled a mountain today the snow melted into a cream of white the view so large I left the earth for a while it seemed so great in space the world so small I found those woods again flowers cut down trees so short The mountain waited for me to come visit it's peak was crumbled the view so stunted I had a life it left me yesterday a time so short

The Forest
We live in a world with so much to impress us so many ways to say things that are interesting or deep but it's really all just pioneering a finite surface much like the Earth We may run out one day with these short lives of ours we try to take it all in and hold all the beauty we can At least most of us do many people choose to ignore it all dying having never lived so sad.... Either way life is a short moment and it's best to know your own potential I never feel like I've tested mine enough and I suppose that's a good thing

A moment's passing
What a thin veil something like sunlight is to cover everything but the stuff itself is smaller than atoms so easily broken away from too anything gets in the way and the veil is pierced such a powerful veil it is too to generate all that heat and come from just one big ball in the sky a single point of light like a big flashlight shining on the Earth in the middle of the night

Sunlight
My head is turning the office chair rotating my head is pounding The front of myself filled with the power of music all of this seems to point to one thing that my head will soon put me under for a while That I will have a great long sleep to a bright new morning

Late night feelings
Carry on flow with the tide and gain the strength to walk against it Life is a series of tumbles none of them will break you if you are strong be strong and nothing can stop you Keep it going

Keep it going
where are you when I lie awake at night when it feels hopeless do you think of me and wonder the same? I wonder where you are my soul fragment that piece that fell out and landed in you too late to take it back myself your piece has fallen on me the only way to complete the connection is to find you soon my love

Where are you?
The morning Soft return from the depth of the mind Head aglow with sensory pyres Burning away the world we lived in Does death do us the same?
