I don't know where I'm going with this...but I need to write. You know?


I woke up next to her, with a smile on my face, and doubt in my heart.

One night stand?

Maybe.

I tend to have a lot of those.
But this is different.
I met her yesterday and thinks escalated quickly.
Maybe too quickly.

Fresh out of a long, unhealthy relationship, she longs to feel resolution, peace, happiness, and an end to her torturous thoughts of what was, and what might have been.
I long to feel.

I'm learning, everyday, that life is a series of moments.
Some connected, some interchangeable, and some secluded from the others.
I  wish you could choose each moments relativity to the next.

I suppose this poem is about discontent, about feeling lost, lonely- and hoping it will get better.
And above all, needing to say something, to someone...

When there is nobody who will really understand.

With the cold air in my bones
And the warmth of my tired heart and cloudy breath...
I sit here and search for stars in the muddled night sky,
Finding nothing but the reflection of my own thoughtful iris'.

**Darkness.
