Limbs tangled
Relaxed
Gentle warmth
Distant TV noises
Golden light through window
Silences, never awkward
Perfect conversations
Shared jokes and laughter
This is the desired comfortable

I have this amazing handle on reality now
you would be so proud of me
I carved it myself out of driftwood
it has horns and wings
and is painted ocean sunset colors with
glitter dried seaweed streamers
it is very practical

I can turn every moment of your life into a portrait
that I will admire
from near or far

I've got a little black book, with my poems in it
I've got the wind to rock me to sleep
I've got a perpetually dying radio
That brings the news to me
I've got everything I need up in this tree
This tree I live in on my own
I've got books and **** and mobile phones
I've got a little two burner stove
I've got a bright new perspective
And every new day
I know that I'm not all alone
There are squirrels, and birds
And bugs up here
It feels like everybody is home.
Some reflections and an homage to Pink Floyd. My little sister once told me I'd have to leave that tree and face the real world someday. I dunno, the world felt pretty real to me while I was up there.

Reworked this a little bit, I think it's finally come around.
There are but
two words
that matter in my
world
and  in my heart
You
and
my  crazy family
maybe that makes it
three
I am the outcast of society
In reality I am
The soul who
Has been set free
They put me down
They shut me out
My only dream is
That the world
Could only fathom
The jest of what
I am about°•♡°¤
The first little humans
who taught me that  I could
love
anyone
anywhere
anytime
anyhow
either way
whatever way
forever stay
it was you
all five of
you
so
Thank you
