is not supposed to mean anything

it floats like a bubble

and then it pops

and there is

wonder

and then its

over
I'll be like
Every other poet
And compare you
To the stars

Because you shine
So bright and
Very beautifully
Just like them

But you and
I both know
Behind that glow
You're dying inside

I dreamt of you again last night, I've felt
more of your kisses in my dreams than
in real life.
Does that make them any less real?
I've been dreaming him almost every night since I moved back
We came together
like we already knew one another
Never to be without the other
The air somehow feels calmer
living so deep inside my heart, you keep me safe and warm
Infatuated by your charms
falling into your arms
I keep writing about you
about how much I love the things you do
I fell in love with you slowly
I fell in love with you gently
then quickly
Because nothing makes more sense
Than the thought of you and me
We are now the perfect symbol of sanity
It's just empty without you, absolutely empty
So somehow, you just got into my brain
And it has become a place away from stress and pain
Then i forget to worry about everything
Cause those softly kisses are worth repeating
And when i look in your eyes i get butterflies
As if we were angels romancing in the skies
Two pairs of lips and two hearts combined
This love was clearly destined

I saw a picture of you and me together,
And I realized that I'll never  hold you like that again.

You'll never be there to hide my pain behind violent bouts of laughter;
Your warm neck will never offer me comfort anymore.

Of course, I was sad,
But then I wondered, why?
Why should I be sad when you're not here?
When you don't exist anymore?
When all the atoms that made up you are in the mud
Just like you wanted?

Of course, you didn't deserve to go,
But then I wondered, why?
Why should you not go to the place where we all will be eventually?  
When that is where you were gonna end up anyway?
When you knew that you had someone to love and be loved by
Just like you wanted?

Of course, everyone tells me it's okay to grieve,
But then I wondered, why?
Why should I be sad about something I knew would happen?
Something that I had been preparing for?
Something that would take all your woes and miseries away
Just
Like
You
Wanted?
Death isn't a part of life; life is the wonderful journey that we take in our own separate ways, and death is the common destination.
Darling, don't forget,
    or regret,
       the depths of this pain.

Wild flowers bloom
   only after
       it's been pouring rain.

Shoes

The shoes I bought
Are too big for me
But I love them
I love them dearly

I strapped them up tight
I redid the laces
Put on layers of socks
Crammed ***** of tissue to
fill the empty spaces

I submerged them in water
In a pail, to the bottom they'd sink
I left them in the sun
In the hopes that they'd shrink

I just wish that they'd peer through their eyelets
And see me for all I've done
I will not cease to fill the voids
And fulfil the love I've begun

The shoes I bought
They remain too big for me
But I still love them
I love them dearly

— The End —
