It was only a matter of time.
Things slow down, candles blow out.
So much similar in being so different.
You say I am too forgiving. That stops today.

With a click of my heels I am away from you.
With a blink of an eye we are apart.
Memories are erased from my mind.
Easier gone and forgotten than just gone.

Easy as pie to cut the connection.
It is only because I refuse to hate you.
You call me names and curse my presence.
Yet, my demeanor stands.

Hatred nor love remains.
Just the sloppy leftovers from our friendship.
An insult here and inside joke there.
Not relevant but still there.

My time with you was no less than difficult
because we were trying to fix what was crumbling before us.
Sometimes, you just have to let the tower fall
if you ever want to build a new one again.

A thousand
Butterflies lifted
Me up,
One let go
And i did fall.
It takes only one
Person to let go,
And you could
Fall to the floor,
With no one to help you up again once more.

a warm dawning sun
rises slow on hazy horizons
with winds wildly
blowing
down endless
interconnected currents
we wake up
to birds singing
timeless songs of morning
and our forgotten past
leaves us hanging
like willows weeping
in the rain

The white pages, they taunt me
Haunt me
Empty canvas stripped of colour
Somehow duller
And I'm dimmer too for that
A fading glimmer
Each line shakes as I run away
Disappearing yesterdays
The heat hardens my fingertips
Faucets drip
Grasping at thin red strings
My aching heart
Cannot sing

I oftentimes find myself compensating for my creation

As if merely existing is an extraordinarily enormous insult in itself

And my reason for living is to repeatedly apologize for breathing

Because the space I am apart of isn't and never will be where I am wanted
