Some nights
and some days
I lay
looking blankly at the ceiling
the sky
the stars
and think,
thank,
thunk,
about this life we live,
experience,
breathe,
explore,
and feel everything
yet nothing
all at once

I cannot describe
a more peaceful feeling
between the line of
realization
and
confusion

...

Its acceptance will set you free

There comes a time where you must realize,
not everything is meant to be
There is struggle
There is pain
There is love
There is vain
There are things that lift your spirits
And ones that drown your soul
There are things that complete you
And ones that make you less than whole
Yet throughout all these things,
although not meant to be
They create something hidden,
Perhaps your destiny
It may be confusing
It may be so grand
But that my friend is the beauty
Of a life gone unplanned

~ destiny encompasses infinite possibilities

Your touch burned me
like fire
Your words chilled me
like ice
I realized
that without one
the other
would overpower...
would imbalance...
I realized
that without one
the other
extinguished...
destroyed...
leaving behind
ash
or
shards
and a destructing reality
that my heart
was no longer yours
nor
my very own

~ what did you do to my heart

Your aura,
is not about who likes your aura
your aura,
is about if you like your aura
it is a piece of you that you present
to this world
to people
to yourself
that contributes to a universal aura
one that can make a single person
place
or thing
feel part of something so much bigger
more significant
more worthy
your aura,
IS that universal aura
and that in of itself
is the worlds purest treasure

~ you are in control of your life

How strange,
crowded rooms,
hotel bars,
cities,
supermarkets,
our minds,
this world,
that can leave us feeling surrounded
but alone in the chaos

~ loneliness is a part of who we are

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

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

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
