Valsa George
On the stage she stood,
a sculpted image

With music,
she began to sway

With rising rhythm,
she gyrated in frenzied joy

Her body flowed like a droplet
on a slimy lotus leaf

As she revolved like a top,
I got lost
in the poetry
in motion!

Sweet words that's came out from you mouth.

It's all lies.

As you said "don't love me".

That was the hardest part I swear,
pretending not to in love.

But darling,

I can love you, when you didn't have to love me.
( written by friends who know and shared here with their permission)

don't dwell on ****,
the past has passed.
and throw the drugs
down the toilet.

do the things that make
you feel better,
and avoid the things
that make you feel crap.

whatever they are.

eat and drink
things
that make you feel nice,
and be in such places.

know who your friends are
and know how much to load
on them.

force your self
out of bed in
the morning,
go for a walk
enjoy nature.

get a dog.

avoid the news,
and depressing tv.

know
your own routine,
and don't let other people
tell you it is wrong
or feel guilty about it

but also know the line
between what is your own
paranoia and anxieties,
and what is just normal
emotion
and reaction.

be aware of reality,
and how you are
deviating from it.

get over yourself,
and lighten up.

some of it is
indeed physical and psycological,
but much of it
is just ******.

Take as much advice
as can be ,
but it is up
to the individual
to make the decision to change.

as you know.

I'm stuck, in an everlasting desert of shame
I cannot find my way out of my profound land of loneliness
As i sit on the cold sandy ground, i ponder,
'Why must it be this way, why can i not escape'
The answer comes to me.
I slowly sink into the sand of hurt, forever drowning in the presence
of hope that is never going to arrive, even as i grow
i cannot seem to let go of the memory that the sparkle in my
eye is never coming back.
I'm now more stuck than i ever was before, finding things to do
to pass time in the land of my caged prison, wondering when
someone will finally set me free.
Almost tastes a lot like you,
Drowns me in what might have been.
Your eyes tell an infinite amount of possible stories of the way our lives could have been.

How silly and fickle I am
To let you affect me
In a way I don't understand
Like there was force
An invisible string
Pulling me to you
Tugging and weaving me
Through winding roads
Having conversations past midnight
In a car with headlights
That illuminate trees whizzing by
Set to playlists I always listen to
Music I've never actually shared
Moments never actually experienced

I just don't think I could stand
To be hurt by you again
I pour myself out so easily
I don't leave anything to the imagination
My heart opens so easily
But I need to be guarded
I need to protect myself
I need to be your friend
And right now it needs to be enough
And there's no way you couldn't know
How difficult this is for me
It is
I feel like if I were to be near you
I would disintegrate entirely
I maybe would lose myself again
I really don't know how I will feel
And that scares me more than anything
I've just built you up in my mind
For so many years, I forget
What it's like to have your entire attention
For a single instance in time and space
Just us for a moment after years of apathy
I'm curious, who have you grown up to be?

Maybe it would give me some clarity
I feel like maybe that's all I really need
It's impossible to know anything about you
Unless I look you in the eyes and feel it's true
There are just a lot of tough feelings
