My god how I hate the bittersweet feeling when I hear your name.
You. You caused me this heartache that I cannot get over.
You've poisoned my mind with all your sweet talk.
My god, when will you ever leave my heart and mind?

“Are you OK?” “Yeah.”
Not really, but you wouldn't understand
“How are you feeling?” “Great.”
Terrible but I can’t tell you because you’d ask why
“Where’d you get that cut?” “Rollerblading accident.”
That’s always the perfect excuse
“Is there anything you’d like to confess to?” “No.”
Yes
“Do you regret anything?” “Yeah, going ice skating.”
Being born.
“Have you felt sad lately?” “No, I’m really happy.”
I feel sad all the time
“Why were you crying?” “Just finished a sad book.”
You don’t want to know
“What book?” “Looking For Alaska.”
The book that told the story of my life
“Are you sure you’re OK?” “Definetly.”
Definitely not

My fingertips pause
Over worn out keys
On a board that's seen
Better days, but that was years ago
When the muses were fresh,
The utterance adequate,
The language clear and precise,
The sonnets and haikus flowing
Easily from thought to tongue to finger to page.
Things have changed greatly since then.
My fingertips pause
Over worn out keys
Because some things
Are too hard to voice.
Some pains go so deep in my soul
That not even I know they exist.
Some memories so old
Of a childhood first snow
Or teenage habitual mistake
Or adolescent innocent fantasy
Have faded to a sepia-tone
Not able to be conveyed on paper.
Some experiences too personal
That sharing would ruin them forever
Because no one else could fully appreciate
What it means
To me
In my life,
Both past and future.
So silence descends
As my fingertips pause
Over worn out keys
On a board that's seen
Better days.
For how do I type out a poem
When keys have gone missing,
Like some of the pieces of my soul?

i had a
dream last night
that you fell
in love with
someone else
and i realized
that i don't want
to spend the
rest of my
life scared that
i might lose you
i want to
spend that time
waking up
next to you,
seeing the
world with you,
learning how to
grow old bravely
with you
and i guess
what i'm trying
to say is
marry me

*The voiceless
And the invisible
Makes a quiet place for themselves
In my wondering heart
And my 'surfing' mind.*

I was met a girl, who was amazingly beautiful.
She never believed anyone who told her so but she showed me why.
She pushed up her sleeves and showed me her battles scars. she fought a battle against herself.
All she saw was the ugliness within her scars but never the beauty her smile held.
