The heart is the greatest clock
It tells no time
But it beats
With each sight of love
The timing of one heart
Matches the timing of another
Hand in hand
The two begin to beat as one
And show the world
The clockwork of happiness

Alone isn’t a bad thing
Opportunity for independence
Chances to experiment
Journeys to figure out
But maybe the bad is hidden
Opportunity for stumbles
Chances to mess up
Journeys to move astray
Alone is a battlefield
The winner is the loser
The loser never wins

he has the perfect things to say
always makes my beating heart skip
pays attention to the details nonstop
parks in my mind as an endless idea
yearns for another step along my path

waiting for a flower to bloom
like waiting for her beauty to be found
on that happy spring day
when the petals finally fall open
he tells her she’s always been beautiful
but now she is even more than before

thoughts turned into words
words turned into actions
actions turned into moments
moments turned into memories
memories that were once just thoughts
turned into forgotten stories

Reach for the stars
They are too far away
Maybe not close enough
They will be there
To keep you reaching
And one day
The stars will be below
Soon the stars will become oceans
The untouchable will become small
All that will matter
Is what was reached
By a single confession
So share the reached
With those who have never seen
What can be reached
But the stars, my darling
The stars are only for temporary beauty
Don’t be fooled
The real beauty is within the soul

That’s something to be proud of.
I haven’t said that for a while
It hasn’t been relevant
I’m not worthy of pride
I don’t deserve it
I have not worked for anything
I shrug saying “good enough”
I rarely think that I’ve done the best
It is nice to see others feel proud
I just can’t feel that same delight within
There’s nothing to be proud of.

Love
What is it?
I’d say, but I don’t know.
I’d imagine it to be clouds
Soaring high and free
Not a care in the world
Just floating in the wind
It could be lying in bed
Half asleep
Then feeling puppy paws
Circling around to sleep next to you
Curling up in the crease of your body
Providing a needed presence of warmth
Perhaps it’s just a mix of everything joyous
Bundled up into a pair
Written into a plan
What is Love?
A feeling I’ve never known

There is no such thing as a calm wave
Waves are not calm
Yes
They may seem shallow to some
And insignificant
But to others,
To others they are capable of destroying
Destroying a home
Destroying a family
Destroying a life
So yes it might seem calm
But look beneath the surface
To those who lie beneath the beauty
Then try to say it’s a calm wave
Just try to.

I wait
I contemplate
What could be
What matters to me
Then you go
And I didn’t know
I was just a muse
being used
That’s when I fell
Cause you introduced me to hell
The fear in my eyes
Could not disguise
What I felt in my heart
Cause it had been ripped apart
And thrown down a hole
That’s what you stole
You took it away
Then the Love began to decay
But my heart is still yours
Through all of these wars
