How can I feel anything but wonder
at the beauty of hearts & minds that inhabit this world
so vividly intertwined, we are all seeking each other
and finding ourselves

remember always,
to never let your love grow cold
but keep a lit fire
for a stray dog, or a man that needs a hand
when we help each other, we help ourselves
but when we help ourselves, we hurt each other

life would go on
if you had never heard
your favorite song

but you heard it
and love it

next time you are thinking about fading away
yes, life would go on
but you might just miss
being someone's favorite song

Mid-sentence: this story can go either way,
Doom and gloom, or full of joy.
Hold your nerve, believe in happy endings,
There’s a bigger story; written from a far but lived out day-to-day.

it's coming
the feeling of it's presence
I don't know when, where, or what it is
but it's coming and I need to go
I try to hide but only for it to come closer
I try to ignore it for the feeling to be stronger
then it found me it's no monster or person
but my own shadow is coming back stronger than I remember

help me
please
                          i'm
              s p i r a l i n g
        
         down the rabbit hole
                                           but now
                              alice is gone
         all that's left
                   is the

                            mad hatter

i thought of you
while cleaning the dishes

realizing
that you
probably
dont think of me

anymore

but i sure do

i wasnt paying attention
so
i dropped my favorite cup

shattered
into countless
little pieces

now its gone

forever

just
like
you
