Smiling in my silent screaming pain,
It's like pushing the wall of hope in vain,
Then my heart aches to the bone,
Freezing me in the room to be alone.
Sometimes it's okay to be true to yourself, 'cause our emotions are valid and recognizing them is a matter for our growth and peace of mind.

Your reasons and explanations for treating me poorly do not negate my feelings toward it.

Maturing is realizing an apology for how you made the other person feel is more important than being in the right.

You always were bad at swallowing pills.

It figures she's looking out at the stars again
Lost in air
Lost in breath
I thought i'd find her laying here
Coffee growing cold
A view from the window
Rain puddles on the sidewalks
Desire tingles in her feet. To get up
To travel planets. To love, all at once
She sits on the edge of her dresser
And twists daisies in her fingers
Soon she'll fly out of here
She pulls out her suitcase
She packs all the unnecessary things
Like broken glass and fairy wings
I hear the "ziiiip" of her freedom
She knows it too
I hear the slam of the taxi door from outside
And so I go lay down on my bed and stare at the stars
Written when I was 16, and I'm really proud of this one.

Why do you always test the limits of my patience?
I step back in silence, in measured withdrawal,
as I retreat, a whisper escapes..."she likes me too"
And still, you pull me back, only to let go
Is this the dance we are doomed to repeat?

We fall, linger, circling the truth
Too egoistic to surrender, too wary to owe
the silence mirrors ours, hasty and  never reaching
never daring to shatter the lie of you and I

Nor a lover, nor a friend, refusing to be strangers
remains of wanting and waiting
the fondness drains to frustration,
Not with a storm, nor with the truth
But with the quiet death of something we never let live

princess, I have an acre, a world, a universe
the capacity, resource, to love you
the only barrier that I couldnt go through
is you not letting me
yet I know
u want to
we shouldn't be wasting wishing our love away, just let me

men, usually
come off as cold,distant, & strong

yet the room radiated with the warmth of your existence
a space was not present between I and your adoration for closure
your vulnerability has been the strongest ability I've witnessed

for that, I've acknowledge
that you are for me

Don't be jealous of
someone being favored

you are also in grace

Discovering grace
what creates happiness

It is the way to happiness.
