Septembers remind us
that change, while inevitable
is always beautiful.
That each season of life
brings different weather.
The flowers don't have to
be blooming year round
for our surroundings
to be full of color.
Transformation
does not have to be
growth to be necessary.

Did it help when I walked away?
Isn't that what you wanted anyway?
Ever since then, until now
All roads seem to lead back to you

Someday you'll realize that
You didn't have to go
If leaving is the only way
I'm sorry
Goodbye
Wherever you may be
current mood: missing you

I guess they love you
Because all the poems I’ve written are
About you

I guess they love you
Because every single love song I hear
Describes  you

I guess they love you
Because In every passing face
I see you

I guess they love you
And I’m not quite sure if all the writers and poets fell in love before
With you
I loved you so wholly
so deeply
and in such a way
that you’ve broken me
in a way I will never recover.
You make me
both the happiest,
and the loneliest
person alive.
And that
is a terrifying power
to wield.
I’m afraid I’ve fallen in love
The idea of company sounds great
Family, friends, soulmates
I love the silence
Now some chatter feels good
I’ve changed
I long for company
Going back in time tonight
to my old life
the one with beer and dope

where I hung out at night
with old tunes
and a typewriter

I used to think
they all worked together
to inspire

but then I figured out
they just worked together
to get me wasted
