i want to believe

you have no idea how badly
i want to believe

it's like a rush
of sugar when it first dissolves on your tongue
crystal and
so much, too beautiful

until suddenly it's
gone

fear
the antiserum
claims its place

like vultures
despair and sugar circle my head, make me
feel insane, a puppy chasing her tail

i, a storyteller and listener
i, in love with the sound of heartbeats pounding in time
i want so badly to believe
that we are going to be okay

but we're only
people,
compartmentalized
fragmented
edges of a
dying whole

the sweeping sadness bitter in my mouth
for all of us- loving and flawed
there is an undeniably real chance
we will be made victims to the end as we know it

Somehow, sugar doesn't taste quite as sweet as before
I keep switching between emotions today

The burning fire returns
as it blazes in the darkness
Roaring over the howling wind
sweltering the anger within

Ardent eyes glow in the night
like the hard amber stone
which captures the light
forever in its golden shell

Forever is not forgotten
it continues to burn with rage
seeing the flash, continuing to spark.
The burning fire stays.

Playing my guitar
the music entangles
in the room around me

Music I try
to spread to you
but it never seems
to reach

This musical bubble
has not been popped
though sometimes I feel
it should be

To stop and think
thinking is usually
bad, yet here
it gives me hope

I think of the saying
I said long ago
to someone who has
a special place
in my heart

I believe in this treasure
because its what
keeps my bubble
from popping

Seven beats
Seven measures
Seven notes
Seven words

Believe in yourself
Believe in who you are
You are you, for a reason

Know you can overcome,
surpass this time
of hardship and darkness

You have the strength
You have the support
to continue forward.

I believe in all of you,
though that may not mean much,
It's the best I can do
for now

I will continue to play my guitar
For you, my friends.
All I can do,
is surround you with
my music.

What I need you to do?
*Don't let the Music within you Fade.
Based upon a poem from a few months ago
Though, this poem reaches to three, rather than one, it still clings to the special meaning it held so long ago.
The structure isn't the best,
but the message is pointed across well i hope.

I'm sorry.

I send my soul into the sky
Words trying to make noise in a void
It is vulnerability without the teeth-chattering life or death roulette

We are all the same when we get to this place
Dying hands searching for someone to hold on to

There are people here who care
They don't know your name
But they will send love and support your way
Words to pull you from your pain

It is strange that the people who you will never meet know you better than those you already know

It's the greatest feeling for someone's lonely voice to come across the void and tell you
You are not alone

I hope I can be here for you invisible strangers
The same as you have been for me
I hope you all know
That you are more than enough
I hope you all can hear my voice when I whisper
*thank you
Thank you poets :)

Trust me baby,
it'll be over soon.
I promise to you,
for, my darling, I swoon.
Just think of us
together at last,
to help you through
the rough days past.
The time to come
seems so far away, because
I want you in my arms
forever to stay.
My girl, my world
I'm here for you.
I will never get over
my sparkling view.
Your eyes, they shine
like the moon and the stars,
Showing deep lasting love
that is rightfully ours.
They show me the light,
the everlasting thrill,
For I love you my dear
and forever I will.
If you ever forget
just look to the moon,
because baby, don't fret,
it shall be over soon.
Just a cheesy love poem
I forgot how fun these were to write ^-^
(Disclaimer: this isn't about anyone-I just wanted to write it haha)
