Infinite

I like pretending I'm infinite.
Nothing can touch me.
Nothing can stop me.
Nothing can hold me back.
I move through the clouds.
I connect the constellations with my bare hands.
The wonders don't stop.
The happiness doesn't stop.
Only the hurt.

I stand before you

Bare, bold, naked

To hold a mirror

Against your hatred

There have been times in my life

Where I have been selfish, cruel

Wandered my own path

Heedlessly needlessly

Burning bridges

Now I am older

Slightly wiser

I choose to gather friends

Not enemies

Think of others

Sometimes before myself

Because honestly

I have found

Altruism is good for the soul

To give of oneself for no return

Or quid pro quo

Ultimately I've found

You reap what you sow.

you drift through my mind
never truly disappearing
behind my thoughts you stand there waiting
to take my hand at night
you run through my dreams
with eyes so full of love
what did I do to deserve you?
my constant lover
my missing pieces
my endless dream
oh how I wish you were real

my words
got stuck somewhere
between my throat
and the air
outside my lips
and I wanted
to tell you
all my sins
but I choked
on your opinion
of me
would you still love me if you knew what I had done?

She stares out the window
Dreaming of much
She dreams of a lover
Dreams of his touch

Outside it is sunny
All shades of blue
Inside she sees gray
She's stuck in the gloom

She dreams of a lover
Dreams everyday
The dreams of another
Can't keep thoughts away

She goes to her bedroom
Swallows the pills
No longer thinking of paying the bills

She drifts off to sleep
Mind losing it's conscious
She dreams of a lover
But it no longer makes her nauseous

Sad
Nothing
can make me sad today

Not the air brushed skies
painted in a disarray of grays

Not the frown of a stranger
darkening the room

Not the loss of a lover
or the goodbye from a friend

As much as it hurts
All good things come to an end

But I am not sad
today
**I am not sad
