I Love You Because,
Jeanne wegner Apr 2020
I love you because your thoughts help me complete my own

I love you because your touch fills me with a warmth that is inexplicably new and comfortingly familiar all at once

I love you because your faith has given you the clarity to trust that I am what you desire

I love you because you are remarkably strong

I love you because your mind is vast and its depths are forever enlightening

I love you because you are whole and I am whole and together we are complements

I love you because I know that I never want to lose this feeling
And that, my dear, has got to be worth something

GAZING
Jeanne wegner Apr 2019
The sky is the limit they’d say
Up I would look
A blue abyss of clouds and clarity
Or a dark nights sky, spattered with stars
I would love nothing more than to be one with those stars
They’re much deeper
Omniscient if you will
Than the translucent clouds admired at daybreak
Countless songs, poems, and metaphors have been crafted regarding their beautiful complexity
Yet here I remain
Wishing,once more, upon a fateful star

L.O.V.E.
Jeanne wegner Jan 2019
Countless moments with countless souls
She has looked into widened eyes after being asked one of the most pressing questions of them all
“Have you ever been in love?” They’d inquire
Each with the same longing gaze upon their face
“No”
She’d mutter, shameful of this response

Now however, after all this time
When queried once more upon these same 6 words
Her response has changed
“Yes” she proclaims
For she has grown to be in love with herself
And this. This is the greatest love of them all
Who is this brave girl..

Devine Bliss
Jeanne wegner Oct 2018
Devine Bliss
That’s what they should call it
Life’s purest contentment comes from knowing
While also truly believing
That your destiny will align

For thoughts become reality
And prayers will no longer be requests
As all of your dreams stand before you

You, my friend, are Devine
And shall indeed bring me an endless bliss

Suspended
Jeanne wegner Oct 2018
I haved entered a euphoric state of suspension
It’s almost as if waiting for this perfect life has in its self morphed into utter perfection

You must know that I am living a double life
You see as I continue to grow, conquer, and love many moments
Others are spent in desparity and pitiful reflection
If only our two worlds would merge once more
Perhaps I could fulfill a single persona yet again

Clarity
Jeanne wegner Jul 2018
My heart has made it ever so clear that this, you, are it’s purest desire
However you live in a state of confusion
For wonderance and doubt is not certainty
Lack of faith and fidelity is not certainty
And a void of emotions will surely ensue
I long for your clarity perhaps more for you than the benefits I could ever reap
This is what true, devout care is surely made of

Numbered Days
Jeanne wegner Jun 2018
Uncertainty
Life is filled with uncertainty
Our days on this earth are numbered
Yet we have zeroed in on an eternal future
A future that we all forget has not been guaranteed

Live these days. These moments. This lifetime as if it is your first and last.

Paradox of Life
Jeanne wegner Jun 2018
Each of us have been granted with unequivocal inner beauty
Steady and true till days end, are the magnificent qualities of thy soul
It is with the only known magic this world possesses that we are able to discover our true selves
Never stop searching
For when this occurs you have truly stopped living
I have an interesting infatuation with ones “soul.” However I don’t believe that’s a bad thing

Lust
Jeanne wegner Jun 2018
I don’t regret “lusting” you
For now when true love meets me
I will know how to approach it

Precious life
Jeanne wegner Jun 2018
Hit like a ton of bricks
The weight of this world is often too much
I can understand trial
I can understand tribulation
I can understand pain
Yet I will never comprehend the inner demons you possess
When it all seems a little too hard
And the day has become much too long
Remember those whose love will outlast the ache
Who will carry you through till tomorrow
It is in your darkest moments that we will shed everlasting light
For those who are fighting the ultimate battle with depression. Just know you are never alone

Cycles of Self
Jeanne wegner Jun 2018
I long to be fiercely aware of my truest self
It is with unrest that I search through the crevices of my mind body and soul to recognize what it is that sets fire to my life

Perhaps the search never ends
Yet the beauty behind it all is that we are ever evolving and wildly changing creatures

With this knowledge I will set forth into this world aknowledging that my purpose is to seek purpose among the instability

M.A.D.
Jeanne wegner Jun 2018
Each new act only amplified the Mutually assured destruction.
Now I’m left alone to pick up the pieces.
Some may call it “getting over it”
Yet we both know it’s simply damage control

Infatuated
Jeanne wegner May 2018
We speak less everyday
Your name crosses my mind less everyday
You forget a little bit about me everyday
Yet deep inside I long for you just the same
Not love. To succinct for love.
Infatuation
I am infatuated with your touch. Your kiss. Your laugh. Your smile.
It is this that periodically crosses my mind. Yet is forever acknowledged in my heart.
It is you that I want.
It is you that will ease the craving, longing, desire.
If love is the cure to all pain. Infatuation is our only demise.
These words flow right out of me because they are nothing but truth

Hindsight
Jeanne wegner May 2018
It came as a shock... all of it. The long conversation, the passionate kiss, the weeks succeeding. A whirlwind romance ridden with secrecy and shame. I found comfort in your words and feared the prospective ones of others. Our last moments, perhaps the sweetest of them all were conversational, flirtatious, endearing, and romantic. Our last kiss a perfect harmony of strong passion, and slow bliss. Perhaps if I had known what the next hours woul bring I would have pulled my head back down to your chest. I would’ve let your lips linger a moment longer on my own. It is in hindsight that I find the most sadness, but also the most joy.

Plummeting Earth
Jeanne wegner Jan 2018
Cities of crime, hate, inequality, and poverty
Leaders of inexplicable indescency, fighting for the lost cause of war and hate, monopolizing the nation. Money is everything, we are nothing
Gray skies, smog, with its putrid scent rotting the Earth one broken treaty at a time
Tears, falling from my eyes as I watch such beauty dissipate in flames.
Our actions have consequences
Our faults will be our fate
And our worst nightmares will soon be reality

Soul Story
Jeanne wegner Jan 2018
I have written it on my heart that everyday, be it good or bad, is a chance to grow and evolve.
To much time I have wasted believing that the person I was portraying was truly myself. Blinded by society I survived in a body that was my own and a persona of another I had never met.
That girl found sadness in such trivial things.
She had no sense of self, no heart, no passion, and no ache for what truly mattered.
She is gone now, and the story of her soul is forever altered.
She has finally broken free amongst the shadows and seen the light of day.
new to the whole poetry thing
