you were an oasis in a desert

i thought you were an oasis,
but you were a mirage.
and a mirage is all you will ever be.
THIS HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY DRAFTS SINCE JULY 2020 AND I NEVER PUBLISHED IT DSKLJFDLKS here you go :3

W: Waves crashed against 2020 pebbles
A: against the shoreline. Colliding with one another, the pebbles slowly chipped away at each other, breaking apart. And
Y: yet, seven constellations twinkled above them in the midnight sky. The constellations of the captivating cat, sophisticated sheep, benevolent bear, unfaltering unicorn, dynamic dragon, lively lion, and curious chick shone brightly through the dark expanse, as if signaling to the pebbles below,
V: "Venture out beyond the horizon, for there you will find the 2021th pebble and be able to turn the tides. Even if storms darken the sky, the sun will always shine again. The celestial bodies will always be here for you, shining bright in the cosmos but even brighter when midnight strikes."

why do people do things that are bad for them
maybe its because
they dont love themselves enough
maybe that bad thing
is the only good thing left in their life

why do people stay with people that are bad for them
maybe its because
they think they don't deserve better
maybe that bad person
helps them relive their past trauma unconsciously

"i wish i could have your brain"
"let's trade minds for a day"
"it must be easy being you"
are so ******* triggering
cause you have no idea what it's like
to be me, to be a prisoner of my own mind
to be drowning in a whirlpool of darkness
to be so full of self hatred and insecurity

an adorable little lamb
fur so soft, strong like a ram
who would have known
you were nothing but a sham.

looking back, perhaps you really were
who you were
i thought of you like a wolf in sheep's clothing
but i think we just didn't fit, without us knowing

you were like a lamb, soft in your own right
but i was a dolphin, never destined to see the light
i hope you're flocking in the fields
and that time has made you heal.
don't call it a relationship, but i'm sorry. summer 2018.

i am the moon
all my life, i've yearned for the stars
it took me so long to learn
the stars were oh so far
and burned out oh so quick.

perhaps their light reflecting off me
was what appealed to me
or perhaps it was the hot, fiery passion
but everyone knows a raging match
burns out the fastest.


you are my planet.
i hope you are the earth,
so that i can be your only moon.
i never expected it to be you,
but now that i'm touched by your beauty
it makes me want to close the distance soon.

yet our lives orbit in rotation
and only words can be our demonstration
i love you, you are my planet and i am your moon. ♥

the summer sun's first rays stained the river red
i am the waterfall, providing the sorrows
little tear droplets all pile up, now im swimming in a pool of blood
i cant even tell if im alive or dead

as the season changes over, how fitting is it
that the river runs red once again as summer's last rays fade
maybe i hid so well that even i was blind to my own facade
and now im too far gone, swimming
swimming

swim
written in september 2017, it's been sitting in my drafts for awhile. i'm fine now. :)
