We are using the same words. We are saying the same things.
Mark it. The interchangeability of birds resilhouettes the sky.
One grey line drawn overview. A space.
Bare clap sky. You are puncturing yourself.

All that gas, you think. No matter. No matter.

You will be lighter eventually.

Not before the birds blaze, metric of ash and gust
partitioning a pomegranate sky.

You loved pomegranates once.
Now there’s fruit everywhere.

These little seeds stitched into the hemisphere,
the drive, your hand.

The birds have gone mad. They will not eat them.
My body is a lighthouse
Desperately, searching
For her in the darkness
Hoping that the yellow
Light leads her back to me
It's funny how you really get to know someone when you're alone with them.It's like you lose all your fears and are able to interact with him or her in a more personal manner.Quite often among other people you don't quite get the opportunity to have a proper conversation with someone.Also many a times the person isn't able to be himself or herself among a crowd and when you're alone with him or her you get to see a new or unknown side of his or her personality which surprises you.

I lied to my mother about talking to you because last time I told her we talked, she cried.
2. My biggest fear is that no matter what I do, I won't ever get over you.
3. Everywhere I go, I find you. I suppose it's because I carry you in my heart.
4. I didn't believe in soul mates until I met you. You didn't complete me, you complemented me.
5. Sometimes I can't sleep because I'm thinking of you. Other nights I don't want to sleep because I know I'll dream of you.
6. You make my hands shake and my stomach hurt. I don't think love is suppose to feel this way.
7. I miss you even when you're not away. I hate it but it's always been that way.
8. Sometimes I think we were meant to be. Everything was right except our timing.
9. It's been two years too late but I still look for your face in a crowded room.
10. You felt like home but if there's anything I've learned recently, it's that home is so very temporary.
11. I never knew craving touch was a thing until I saw your hands.
12. You are the whirlwind of thoughts I could never put into words.
13. I write about you like you put the stars in the sky.
14. I don't want to forget you but somedays I regret you.
15. I don't always like you but I always love you.
What keeps me up at night is you.

I don't mind being another notch on your belt
Just as long as we both get what we want
I don't know what the ******* care to have
But I want you
Getting out those feels so I can go back to living a chill life

I am good enough
such a catch
with countless talents
personality to spare
of course I am good enough

Then I delve deeper
shining light on where I had not seen
to see the gems that sparkle
her character her qualities
her endearing idiosyncrasies
were brighter all along

They were only concealed by the murkiness
of my own vanity
my narcissistic ideology
that I am more than good enough for her.
Am I?

Love is that feeling you get
When you open a fresh bag of cookies
Or take a tray of brownies out of the oven.
Love is that feeling you get
Right before you jump into a cold river, lake, or pool.
Love is that feeling you when when you lay in your bed and let the ocean waves drift you off to sleep after spending a whole day at the beach.
Love is that feeling you get when a puppy pees on your carpet but you can't stay angry
Love is that feeling you when a close friend successfully quits their drug habit.
Love is that feeling you get, as you drift apart from someone who was once everything you ever wanted.
Love is that feeling you get when you and that person decide it would be best if you two no longer spoke to each each other.
Love is that feeling you get as you watch your parent gracefully face death head on.
Love is that feeling you get when you think about spending the rest of your life with another person hoping that you die first so that you’ll never have to be a day without them.
But most of all, love is that feeling you get when you yearn to fall asleep next and wake up with the love of your life every night and every morning.

Why does something that is supposed to bring you up to highest you ever been always take you down to the lowest you will ever find your soul
You give and give and no one ever takes what you have to offer but in times when they need it I'm sad a lot and I wonder if someone ever did take would I be happy?
