we could laugh in the sun and dance in the rain~
though you exist worlds & stars away.

~its alright.

i still breathe, if not your name-

still awaken at night & dream at day.

i still live for my wonder & die with my heart, all or naught, wild & untamed-
just-
not for your sake.
ill settle for wind chimes & wildflowers & me

I want to experience myself
through your eyes
And show you the world through mine
The beautiful place you occupy
in my heart and mind

three steps backwards to propel us forward.
make acquaintances to the people
we grew up to be.

once lovers, now strangers
entangled in history,
retrace the path

follow the road of compassion
back to the beginning,
to find the future of us.

When they tell me
"we understand"
I take them seriously
because they will always
be under
the impression
that they know

will you call my name
again, the one with double
letters where yours have

Wake up, don't marry

him if you are not yearning --


for him in sweet dreams.

My mind is like a prison,
My heart acts the same,
Except it’s covered in locks and chains,
Deep down where there’s less pain…but my soul it’s like an oven,
It only burns when I’ve grown cold,
Unfreezing the best parts of me,
That I let drift away…
