Sometimes
I just don't know..
and sometimes..
I just like it better that way.

Every sorrow in existence
Woven in the tapestry of my life
Hanging on the wall of misery
But in a cold and bitter hell
With you
I feel the apricity

Last night I was dreaming
I was an astronaut
Soaring though the night sky
Flying through the heavens
And looking down to see
The whole world
Sleeping so peacefully

Moments later
My alarms went off
Wearily I awoke
I sat up
And rubbed my eyes
Through a slightly blurry gaze
I realized what that dream
Means to me
As I stand up looking down
At my whole world
Sleeping peacefully

Every dream I had
About a perfect life
Had but one thing
In common

It rained today..
Not much different
Than any other day.
Only this time..
Maybe
More self-aware
It's hard to care..
Must persevere
To preserve
That perseverance
I hold dear..

"What do you think when you look at me?"

"That I feel safe.. Like I can breathe. My gaze always pauses extra long on your eyes, and I want to run my hands through your hair and beard."

"My eyes are simply a reflection of yours."

I am
Many things
Not the least of which
Relentless
Tirelessly through the storm
Till my hands don't work anymore
