I write because I want to,
because I need too.
My inspiration comes from anything,
People, music, ideas.
I don't measure my writing by how long it takes me to write it.
Though I have spend almost a week on one.
I measure my writing, not by how many hearts I get.
But I measure my writing by who I share it with,
And that would be you, who is reading this now,
And the few others that I show my poetry to.

when she learned how to sing
she forgot how to talk
and when she learned how to run
she forgot how to walk
so when she learned how to love
she had no foundation
so the walls kept caving

More often than not,
I am reminded of Aladdin's struggle.

He grew up with out a life of luxury.
And then he meets Jasmine,
And he transforms himself in to something that he wasn't/isn't.
In hopes of having her falling for him.

What I think of is that he wasn't noticed at all,
Except when he stole bread or did something bad.
Until he became a "Prince".
He sings that "if only they'd look closer..."
That "there's so more to me"

There are some days where I feel like Aladdin.
I've always found truth in Disney. And due to some recent events, I am reminded more and more that I an kinda invisible.

I am so tired
Of arguing
Of falling

Of life.

I have pain.
Don't think I don't.
I do.

I just don't show it...

I create.
Not the same
As you.
But still,
I create.

I create music.

For so long
I was stuck between your shadow
And you.

No longer.
