Is it wrong that the only time I actually want to be in a relationship with you
is when I'm actually with you.

It's as if being away from each other triggers a feeling of independence
That I simply don't have when together.

Often I think I'm happier when I'm alone
But those doubts are silenced when I hold you.

If only I could hold you at all times
Then I wouldn't have such an urge to separate.

tides change too quickly for my liking
one day you are surrounded by good people
the next you are isolated by demons.

i cannot comprehend the sincerity behind temporary promises
it's as if people adjust their ideologies to fit their tunnel vision
forgetting those who were there
before.

love is forgotten in the pages of a dead book.
the dried four leaf clover,
used as a book mark,
falls right out.

there is no luck
there is no chance

just life,
and the path that leads you to your soulmate
perhaps my best poem yet

There is a distinct emotion which is unmatched in gravity.
It's the shuttering realization that others do not recognize the impacts of their transgressions.
Wasted investments, broken promises and negative returns.
Why leave the house when within it there is no betrayal?

there's a stark sadness that comes with maturity.
an awareness of something so tragic
that our mind pushes it to its furthest corners
letting it linger in the background.
you see the avoided truth of the matter is
the best is behind us
and you'll only get fragments of it back
enjoying the orts as the young feast.
