Kindness, although rare,
takes searching
and patience
in hopes that one day
it will be shared
not only to yourself,
but with yourself,
and not only to others,
but with others

~ spread it like confetti
Kristy Metzger Jul 2018
How strange it is,
that we accept a place we live in,
but do not accept those that live in it

~ the world was made to be shared

Funny,
how hearts are glass
fragile and breakable
easily crushed and destroyed
funny,
how hearts are gold
strong and resilient
loving and pure
funny,
how hearts are physical
thick and ******
loud and heavy
funny,
how hearts are alive
breathing and providing
supporting and guiding
funny,
how hearts bring love
passion and lust
desire and imagination
but can inflict
the
utmost
pain

~ your heart is complex

You stuck to me,
like jam does on fingers
like sap on a tree
like caramel on teeth
but like jam,
sap,
and caramel,
sweetness can expire
wash away
and dissolve
until all that’s left is the empty taste
of remembrance

~ sugar dissolves eventually

There are people who will set your soul on fire
those are your people,
those people are you,
may the fire burn
eternally

~ ignition
Kristy Metzger Jul 2018
Stars, like you
are ***** of fire
hot and wild
burning and lustful
waiting to be discovered
acknowledged
noticed
Stars, like you
are beautiful
lonely
picturesque
Stars, like you
are a dream
something far off in the distance
yet close in reach
often admired
and sometimes
forgotten

~ make your energy known
