They don’t want what they say
They don’t say want they want
They play their games
They’re dating savants

I’m looking for love, could I be the only one?
Butterflies and goosebumps
And thousands of hugs

If true love exists, please let me know
I’m running out of faith
Should I just let the dream go?

I keep my tears inside a tiny ocean
With salty beaches kept behind my eyes
Never letting anyone see my emotion
Keeping the grey inside my stormy skies

I keep my feelings in a bottle labeled "poison"
Covered with a skull and two cross bones
Meant to never let me leave it open
Reminding me to leave those things alone

I keep all of my teeth in my back pocket
So I don't ever accidentally smile
Shot off all my joy up on a rocket
And now I haven't seen it in a while

Anxiety, like fire,
Needs fuel,
We feed it with fear,
If only,
we can let it burn out.

wandering hands;
searching for
the unknown,
feeling for
perfect emotion,
wanting to
never
let go.
electricity
pulses through
your veins,
you know
it's right,
it's so
wrong
that it's
*absolutely
right.

I care for you,
Because i love you.
I care for you,
Because i dont want anything bad to happen to you.
I care for you,
Because you are very essential to me.
I care for you,
Because i dont want to lose you.

But being too caring,
Becomes controling.
Becomes overprotective.
Becomes overthinking.
Becomes overreacting.

But be worried.
When they start to not give a **** about you,
Everything is gone.
Because i did.

Minnesota winter
This lake, that lake
The lake around the corner
Frozen, wholly
Catching fish through
Holes in the ice
Frostbite
Layers of snow packed deeper
And deeper
And deeper
Like an unsightly
Ice cream cake
Snowmobiles leaving traces
Of minus 40 races
Breath freezing to faces
And icicle trim laces
Something is serene
Though the air
Kind of smells like
Freezer burn
And hypothermia
