i dot the sky with tears
that resemble faintly
shimmering stars

for you are the glass globe
and memory is the snow
that keeps me trapped within

I Wonder A Lot

To be in love is my natural state
because it happens all the time
I can't help but become entangled
within a simple moment
such as being in an empty coffee house
during the middle of night
or falling for a girl who stares into my
eyes as she passes by me in the park
as I'm left to imagine how incredible and intricate
her story must be
or seeing some mystery ******* the internet
who writes the most beautiful poems
that pluck at my heartstrings so
strong and passionately
all while being so very
gentle

Although,
to be in love as a natural state
is an awful one to be in
because I can't think of a day that
goes by where my heart isn't broken.

Tonight I experienced something new to me
tonight is the night that I almost died
tonight would have been my last night on this planet
the details I can't entail
for they are irrelevant
but let's just say I was in the wrong place
at the wrong time.
My last words to ever be said
would have been to my friend
saying, "I think you better hurry up."
Those would have been the last syllables to leave
these lips
of all the things that I have said or have wanted to say
those words would have been it
of all the letters that I've etched into paper
those words would have been the last thing
that I ever did
and oh god how I've taken this life for granted
and oh god how stupid I've been for ignoring the
smallest blessings I've got
and how ignorant of me to not take opportunities
and live this life to the fullest
I was shaking
as I stared at potential death
being sure not to move a muscle
not to breathe
not to blink
as I watched me and my friend
slowly become victims of wicked fate
realizing truly what I have been saying for years
that 'anything can happen.'
Just remember all of you
please remember 'anything can happen.'
Make sure the people you love know that you love them
make sure that you've always done what you love doing
make sure that you never leave any loose threads
and please please please for the love of god
make every word of yours count
make every word sing
make those ******* words
resonate and shake this earth
because you never know
what's words will
be your
last.

I won't let go.
I promise.
Please know nobody
has made me
change color
more than you.
It's cold
and I'm sleepy
please my darling,
we'll have cocoa later
just come back to bed
and dream a little more
with me.

She was wrapped
in black,
her face accentuated-
the rosy pink
daintily painted
across her face.
Her movement-
deliberate  
and graceful
as though she was
slipping through time.

And for the first time
in my life,
beauty
had made me
stop dead in my tracks.

They're starving down in Africa,
but I guess who gives a ****
as long my ***** has gold flakes in it
and the new iPhone comes in five different colors.

I wish I could speak
as if I was writing.
Why do I always
have to be so
awkward?

The mystery of divinity who can understand,
knowing there is no searching of his understanding.
The understanding of divinity who can comprehend,

He that divideth the sea at his will, having the pillars of heaven to tremble at his reproof.

neither
His understanding understood by searching,
nor
His ways comprehended by human reasoning;
He is the

everything that's simple is so empty when it's changed
delivered in a way the ones who listen are estranged
to bear the thought alone, from such a tilted point of view
will relegate the truth and make it malleable for you
but it won't lose its potency, no, nothing will be lost
the only ones affected be the people it exhausts
they'll find a way to punish every judgment on their own

...
..........
....

a testimony certain when its spoken in that tone
and proof will be a metaphor for what's inside their heads
the thoughts that they awaken every morning from their beds
"now tell me what you're seeing so that I may also see"
and quell the curiosity that's stirring up in me
the waves will not be violent and in time will not exist
a placid sea of sameness come and no one will resist
the chronic headache
