silence
it subtly begs
your attention

Don’t promise me forever, don’t promise me the sun and sky. Don’t pretend to know you’ll never make me cry. Just hold me now and promise me you’ll try.


Jennifer Lopez

Leaving them never gets easier
Friends and family, teachers and babysat kids.
When you live apart from them
You live in two different worlds

Constantly:
The world
                                  where you are
and
                                                      The world
where your heart is

When you love people and things in both worlds
Remember you'll visit the other
Forget that their lives will have changed
You have to keep your mind here                for now.

You told me
"You could do better."
But all I could think of was
"Why would I?"

Hahahahahahaha
I laughed out loud
They laughed with me
They felt so happy
But I felt empty

I look out the window,
It’s another sleepless night,
As i look out,
I notice that even at 2 AM,
It is not pitch black,
You can still see the trees,
It makes me wonder whether true blackness is a human concept,
And even at the darkest time,
God shines his light,
He never makes the world truly dark,
God didn’t make the world a sea of darkness,
We, humans, did
