And in the end sometimes
We do not forget
The bridges that we never crossed
To the homes, we never lived

You do not always lose that which you hold
At times you never held it yet there it goes
In our memory, it stays
Though only as a dream
And in the end sometimes
Life is just as hard as it seems

As early as you can
Change your leaves to spines

Sink your roots deep

Bloom in Spring
Ripen in late Summer

Do not trust the coyote, who only wants your fruit.

I am becoming so tired of my glass being emptied by you.
Every time you fill me, bitterness takes up more space

My head is a lemon.
My heart is running out of sugar to sweeten this drink we call love.

I don't want to make lemonade,
I want sweet tea

She is an enigma
A heartbreak
The unmovable past
A sea of tears
The breeze on a September day
The bitter taste of beer
She is a girl, without a thought or care
Who killed me through you

What does it mean to be engulfed.
To feel and hear the swelling of the ocean around you.
A deep blue abyss filling your lungs.
The waves are crashing into me.
Constantly finding the waters surface
only to be pulled back under.
Exhausted from drowning and finding no relief.
The thought of letting go encroaches.
Letting the monsters in the sea pull me down.
The tranquil stillness of the black ocean depths.
Allowing myself to drift away and dissipate
To be free from this it seems that all I can do is let myself drown.

I do not dream of being your uncertainty.
Fragile skin does not last without cover
And
Uncertainty does not set out to protect against the rain.
Uncertainty embraces entropy.
Uncertainty embraces hips and strands of hair.
Uncertainty sees the future as fate.
I will not be your uncertainty.
And in my lowest depths I vow to you that I will go on without you.
If you cannot see me as rock, concrete, unmovable.
You see, you were my only certainty
But it seems that certainly will change.

I fear that one day you'll lock eyes with someone else
That you'll  take away my daydreams without a thought or care
That you'll leave me in loneliness, and bits of despair
That any beauty I thought I had will go missing to you
I fear you'll leave me broken just because it's something you can do
I want to be the most for you that anyone could be.
Your friend
Your family
And your one and only
I hope you can forgive me for how scared I am at times
That I can't make your world stop  
Or have you to restart mine.
