Tired, but
instead of sleeping
I wake up.

I know not what to,
only that I want to.

In those places
I find myself
living.

Do you know what it's
like to sit here
and think of the perfect dream
and it become hard to breath
as your thoughts fade away
and your sight begins go away
and you fall asleep

I was never a hopeless romantic. I never believed in love. I guess things change when you meet someone. Now I’m just hopeless and romantic.

The mind is a rebel,
but also a tyrrant.
Take yourself down,
or be enslaved.

People like short poems,
But do poems like short people?
I'm short, so I find this to be a fair question.

The day is grey
Saturday drowns with rain
It matches my insides
It wets the earth so I don't have to cry.

I hide under covers and believe in lies
Just to keep the sparkle persisting in my eyes
And I'm human too
But I like to solve people like puzzles
Offer free compassion for the weary
But sometimes I feel depleted
When I call out for help, no one can hear me.

One day
Someday soon
I'll go to bed and not think of you

I'll wake up to the sun
Beside someone
I'm sorry ***
But it won't be you

I grow stronger each day
I may not see it right away

But I do
Before I know it
I won't be able to remember the
Little things about you
I just want to be okay and happy again.  And that mean I can't think of you.  I have to let you go.  And what's ment to be will be.

Physics states that
anything that goes up
must come down
due to gravity
it also states that
when something comes down
it accelerates
Perhaps this is why
the greater the rise
the greater the fall
the greater the pain
the pain of it all
We rose so high only to fall,
my sun, my moon, my all
