fake happiness

she hides under her bed
and cries herself to sleep,
she wants a happy life,
but she hides what she needs,
though to many she may be joyous
and as many friends she has,
she still needs someone close
which she clearly never had

Why does it feel like a dream
when I am with you

Why does it feel like a nightmare
when I am not with you

When you're next to me
I am starting to be religious

Then there's no other way
I want to live my life

Lost in love

Cry
on
paper

while
tears
flow

through a
pencil.

Look deep inside.

Listen.

Stand still.

Understand.

This
is part of
nature.
I've had the phrase "Cry on paper" stuck in my head for a few weeks.  It's been there since I wrote another poem.. because I was quite literally crying on paper at that moment... both through my pencil and my eyes.

Why
Why does
it hurt?

All that
I've lost

and

All that
I've gained

But still,

I sit
inside this
pain.
I guess this is grief. That's all I can say.

but i guess we're always
going to be lonely;
and maybe that's just
what it means to be
truly alive.
