Sometimes my joints ache so  much

And, I think,
Nothing could heal them
Quite like you

me.gs

I can feel the heartbeat of the tree,
Gentle, soft,
Contrasting with mine
Harsh, unyielding.

Ah,
To be so
Green and simple!

Pleasantly strong,
A wonder to all,
And achingly, simply,
Happy

me.gs

Standing high in the trees,
I am
Untouchable

One with the branches and bark
Smelling of sap and needles

If only I could just...

Melt into the wood
And
Be done with all this

me.gs

Tonight is a night
For cheap cigarettes and cheaper whiskey
For getting mad at your parents
Who never taught you to love yourself
For letting those thoughts run through your head that
You'd never even consider if you were sober
For sitting in the cold and letting yourself freeze because
You deserve it

Tonight is a night for angry faces and angrier thoughts
For wallowing in self-pity

Tonight
Is a night
To be weak

Because when morning comes
You'll pretend it never happened

me.gs

Your face,
More gentle than how the trees touch the water
How you move,
More graceful than the dance of branches in the wind
Your laugh,
Bubbling forth more peacefully than a stream

Nature is so beautiful
And it has captured my heart
But you just about

Have it beat

me.gs

Skeletal fingers
Reaching towards the sky
Wishing, hoping, wanting
For just a drop
Of water

They plead and beg
But nothing will come
Of it

me.gs

I want to walk through the city with you,
Two drops in an ocean.
Anonymous.

Just you and I in a million

me.gs

The birds are so active!
Screeching,
Hollering,
They turn the forest into a busy marketplace,
Each hawking their wares,
Buying or selling

And when the sun goes down,
Homeward bound, they are!
Packing out,
To wait for the next day
In the busy bird marketplace

me.gs

Flowering buds
New life
Fresh scents
High heights
Good taste
Better smell
Happy here
Not in hell

me.gs

The daffodils are sprouting,
So much color in the ground!
The birds are singing sweetly,
And as I look around,
I see color everywhere,
And I hear it too - the sound
Of birds
And bees
And trees,
Far, far off the ground

me.gs

Leap from the forest,
Over the trees,
Faster than the wolves,
Faster than the breeze!

Run, run, fast as you can,
No one can catch me,
Nobody can!

Running towards the sun,
Like I was shot from a gun!

(I don't even know what I'm running from.)

me.gs

I say your name like it's a *******
Prayer and I'm drowning and it's the Only thing that might save me

me.gs

You make flowers grow in my chest
Where once there was just heaviness

And you make the sun shine out of my eyes
Where once there were only clouds

me.gs
