Aspire to be beautiful on the inside. Even if all you can find is darkness, embrace it.
As I slumber I dream of how It would've felt to Hold you in my arms The coolness of your skin On my feverish flesh The way our hands Like yin and yang Would entwine and dance Around each other Like ballerinas in Lincoln Centre But how cold must you be How sad must I be To long for the Gaze of your eyes Into mine.

I Miss You
Its not stupid. People are stuck settling and dreams they always had are never being fulfilled. What kind of life is that to live? Settling down when really all you want to do is travel for the rest of your life. So i heard you mention money was a problem. Find a way. Have a dream and follow it to the very ends of the earth.

Do What You Are Afraid To Do
I know you But I don't know Who you are I want to know. I want to know Everything about you From your favorite color To the things you only speak of In the darkness of the night. Now, I only know How your dimples Brighten your face when I make you smile and Then your cheeks turn red And you make me feel Like a prince But then I remember You'd never let me know You'd never let me see inside It's just because I'm different And you're not.

You
It's bothering me That ticking on the wall Can't you hear it The more you focus The louder it gets Please, make it stop So many other things To be thinking about That are all in the background Because of this clock The gears moving Making me tick I can't move, can't breathe Can't do anything Because that ticking on the wall Will not stop It only gets louder The more you focus on it Can't you hear it too?

Going Mad
Trapped in a body That isn't mine I don't recognize Myself, anymore Long hair- hate it Make up- dread it But still I dress up Go along with the act I can't tell anyone Or my life will go To shreds

Alone
All time stops And I am floating In everlasting dark

Untitled Thoughts no. 1
That boy on the street is running away He has a family waiting at home You pull over the car on the highway And talk to him, saying he cannot roam. Mercy is telling him to stop running Reminding him of his friends back in town Those kids in school he'll never stop missing His sister will cry if he's not around. You introduce him to a simple prayer One that shows him forgiveness at not cost You say running away gets you nowhere You've tried it before and only got lost. Compelled to help the boy on the street He happily goes home, not in defeat.

Sonnet I
In the pitch black of night Lights shine bright Keeping the boogey man In the corners Where no one will see him. One brave soul, though Braces the unknown Running through the dark alleys In search of the scary demons of the night. He lights fires in the endless sea Of aimlessy floating things, To see, in relief, that Nothing was ever there. That the boogey man in our dreams Never left our mind to Become the monster we Imagine in the dark.

The Night
Some times when I cannot sleep at night, I imagine all the people of the world and Wonder how they came to be. You and I are on the same planet, Spinning ever so closer to our deminse And some times I wonder How that came to be. When the brain that is in my head will not stop thinking, I wonder existentially About how things came to be. Then I become very concious of the things That never came to be, or in fact, cease to be. The ones that lie in their graves So cold and old and only bones. And then I remember that one day, That will be you and me.

How That Came To Be
It's a feeling I think I have to crave Your hand in mine Is like a lullaby Your eyes sparkle In the sweet sunlight And by the moon's light They don't loose their luster My head on your chest I can hear your heart beating And time stops for a second The world around us May still be moving But we lay here stagnant In our own universe With little infities Enough for a lifetime But yet this moment could Not last long enough For our time is fleeting Though it just begun
