I am not social.
I don't talk to others.
I don't trust people either,
Not even my own mother.

Talking to strangers just seems horrible.
I can barely talk to anyone with it being bearable.

Yet, I hate to be alone, but I feel safer in solitude.
Who can I thank for this wonderful attitude?

People don't get it. Telling me to make friends.
I could do that, if people weren't total ****-heads.

People are horrible, I understand now.
People are horrible, and I know how.
Also, not one of my best.
And God made Adam and Eve
their eyes met for the first time
but their hearts collided
even before the stars exploded.
The Lord calls them His creatures,
I prefer calling them humans
who truly loved without wanting anything
but giving each other everything.
This might not be the biblical story,
but this is ours.

Jasmine climbs the arbor
Sweetly scented air
Standing ‘fore the sunrise
Moments made to share
Butterflies and dew drops

Knowing there is beauty
Wherever we may be
Any given morning
*Together you and me
Good morning beautiful

in the universe I am small

I am not ugly.

but still I stare at this reflection as if it will change
and so I don't feel all that pretty

I am not stupid.

but here I am questioning what the hell is wrong with me
and so I feel inferior

I am not crazy.

but here I am.
and again.

I am questioning everything that is me

from the fabric I am wearing to the very fabric of my being
I am laying powder and sprouting mountains

I am surrounding myself with negativity
and somehow I am feeling so alive when I know I shouldn't be

I am not happy.

and I can say everything that I am not
but I can not figure out what I am feeling

I am not okay.

But my heart is beating
and so I keep trying
