Why I feel everything is

moving away from me,

including mind.

Silence
Is all I hear
When I sit in my room
Sit in the dark
Sit in the quiet
My eyes see red
From the blood I bleed
My body covered in black
From the demons I have
And my eyes cry rivers
To fill the valley’s in my heart

What is it that causes me to smile
for no apparent reason?
To feel my heart occasionally skip a beat?
To be so much happier than I used to be?
To sing when there is no music?
To regard tomorrow with such promise?
To feel so **** young again?
Like a kid still in High School.

Outwardly to those that know me,
There is no visible reason for all of this,
They might even begin to question my sanity,
Just a little bit.

Only you and I know the reasons,
That Love is in the air,
This rarefied air we are both breathing and sharing.

Not everything needs a poem
Sometimes
it’s already

good enough.
