my heart alights like a glow stick whenever I see you
yet,
glow sticks must break to achieve their fluorescence
and a glow stick last only if for a night

a slight in our daily schedule
a slip in the synchronicity
a slur in spoken word

until they are left behind, the carcasses of the party

as you elapse into adulthood
and I relapse in this primeval state of living

what will it be like without you walking my hallways of thought?
as one has harbored themselves like a hermit in my ribcage
will the pressure of you be relieved with your passing?

or will the infinite ache
of those who have been driven apart by circumstance
fill the hole in my chest?
truly sublime,
you will never read these words
the only thing that belongs to you I can still call mine
jesus help me
I hate to rhyme.

One Day...

I will find the
one.
I will live the
life I want to
lead.
I won't be scared
to love and be
loved.
I will say, "I love you",
and have it said
back to me in
the same way.
I won't be scared
to feel.
I will know what
it's like to hold
hands with the one
I love.
I will know what
it's like to not
be alone when I
fall asleep at night
and wake up in the
morning.
God, has a plan
for me, for all
of us.
These are the two words that I say to myself over and over again to remind me that my day will come...Constantly, I whisper to myself "one day, Alyssia! One day you will be ******* loved back by the person you love and you're gonna be okay, and you won't be scared", and so on. This is also for you guys who are maybe struggling with the same thing, constantly being patient letting yourself get hurt over and over again and you just want it to get to "the one" already and stop having to go through these people who don't deserve you. You may feel alone, but never forget that you are surrounded with people who love and care about you, and if you think you don't, well i'm here for any of you guys,seriously I am, and I love YOU!So guess what? Your day will come, don't you worry, but don't doubt it either because that never helps anything.
