Freckles,


         They just aren't on your face


And they connect more


      Than just random shapes on skin,


They connect people like


           Stars and galaxy's in the


Palms of the beholders.

I once did it,
Dived in deep
Though it was only four feet
And it was beautiful
The stars and summer heat

My back against the side,
Him between my
Unconventional thighs
And up until you,
Everything had felt right

But I'm not the kind
You could carry without the
Help of water makin it less heavy
And gentle kicks from the floor,
Sent water rippling off his arm
Around my unphotoshopped back
And my hair isn't long enough
To toss in a messy bun
To keep from the wet

And our noses danced while
We shared hushed laughs,
It was love until I remembered you
It was perfect until I remembered you

Now that it's gone and
So are you,
I can only look back and wish
Instead of brown,
They were blue

And my self esteem
Plummeted out of my ***,
But I knew it was a beautiful night and
I was a beautiful mess
But it would have felt so different
If it was with you,
But it wasn't
And it was something beautiful you never got to view

There's

always

a

way

to

love

yourself,

you

know.
When you find it, let me know. See if it'd work for me.

Look at you,

Adding onto your mosaic wall of art

I will eventually too

But mine's just more permanent

And never hidden in the dark

But this isn't a poem.
It's just the things I wish I could say to you.
A list that I add onto everyday now it seems.
You may not read these,
You may not even believe a single word if you did.
I'm not scared of things anymore.
I honestly don't know what's ahead, all the things the future holds.
I do have fear though.
I think it's only human to fear the unknown.
I hyperventilate when I think about you not being there for it.
I don't know where I'll be in another year or in another 10 years for that matter.
All I do know without a single doubt is that you will stay a part of me then and even after that.
It's a joke to some people that I can love something that I never had.
I just don't know what else to call the feeling of remembering your hands on my face
Or when you kissed my cheek.
I never felt this warm and buzzing sensation with anything else.
I fear the future but I am ready for it because you're in my heart and my head and my soul.
And I hope you know, I hope you feel it that no matter where you go or the person you hold,
Every single thing, every choice, every action, every life event will always come back to that youth camp.
I hope your life is beautiful and with every doubt and every hardship you face,
Just know that there will always be an extra person always, always rooting and cheering you on.

I tried to find it today,
Thought I tucked it away
To be found by someone in a land to help light their way
But I dug and I tore,
My mind was racing until sore
And I just couldn't do it anymore
Now I want to go back to my old ways,
Find something to take me back to those old days
Where laughter never dies
And you stay forever on my mind
I couldn't find it today but
I'm telling myself it's okay
I'm getting on an aeroplane,
Helping me find my way
Where you will always stay
And these memories don't fade
I don't know what you would even do if you seen me cry again.

Heartbreak

Drug use

So much drugs

Pass the time while

Laying around high

Comatose to the couch

I'd watch my hand lag in front of my face

Skipped school too done to care

Katy Perry was a teenage dream

My brother said to stay away,

He said I didn't know who I was hanging out with

He also said my mouth would get me in trouble one day

You said it's my choice but I'm making the wrong one,

Dad yelled and said he loved me and knew I was so dumb

If ear exams were made of acknowledging clear signs

I'd be considered deaf
Where are you when I need you? ****.
