time does funny things
it teaches you how to work
harder than you ever have
for something you always thought you would have
but it's okay.
because time also taught me that
in a year
in seven months
in a second
the best thing:
how to love more than you ever thought possible.

we are only human
but think about it.
humanity - is everything
how unbelievable that we get to experience one another
in so many ways
how i've learned to love:
your laughter
your smiles
your humor
(no matter how bad it is)
and what you want,
because i want
the same things
even if those things aren't going to be me or you in the end
it'll be okay
because i got to know loving you
and it was the greatest thing i've ever known.

she kisses her own body
shoulders, knees, and hands
loving it
knowing that
someday -
only the right one
will ever get the chance to do so -
forever.

You know when after a long day,
You climb into bed,
Exhausted,
And you curl up,
Sinking into the bed,
Breathing becoming regular.
That's what loving you was like.
Rare, and comfortable.

The darkest, twisted alleys in the back of my mind,
Confusion, hurt, loneliness.
Yet also, across the way,
The happy, joyous, incandescent feelings:
they're mine.
And mine alone.
I thought no one would understand
I thought I was alone.
On my own.
Feeling so far gone yet so far up on cloud 9 no one could ever bring me down again.
But, believe me darling, you're not.
For my deepest thoughts I thought no one could ever comprehend,
You put them into words.

It's a difficult matter
Being in between
Back and forth
To and fro
Because you can
And do,
Get lost in it.
The most confusing feeling,
I've discovered,
Is being homesick,
Without a home.

Why do we put so much pressure
On others?
Waiting around for
Friends, family,
That one person who's on our Facebook and we can't remember why,
To accomplish great things so we can praise them.
Graduating high school,
Entering college,
Joining the workforce,
Falling in love - -
Why are these things on our to-do lists?
These aren't some mindless tasks,
This is life.
What if we took all that
And pushed ourselves harder?
Where would that get us?

You're the only one
I've ever known
In the way that I knew you.
You were the one always
On my mind and in my thoughts.
So, now that I'm trying to remove
You,
It's as if I'm missing something.
Something I've always known and
Always had.
Getting over you
Turns out to be a much larger
Task than I ever had imagined.
I don't think about you,
Then I hear a song,
And there you are
As if you want to be there
But aren't doing anything to
Prove it.

All I've ever been trying to do
Is selflessly love you.
But I've come to realize,
It's hard to continue to love someone,
When you don't know if they love you back.
