Split down the center as if there were two.
The energy of one is colored a happy yellow,whilst the other is a saddening blue.
One light, one dark.
It is hard to know Gemini’s head and heart.

Saw you standing there
beneath the dim gas station lights.
You looked so out of place like
the sun out at night.
Kept your head hung low, still
your eyes met mine.
Even though you tried to
hide its glow, I saw
your stardust inside.

you’ve got galaxies in your mind,
and endless stars inside your eyes,
so, won’t you tell me why
you seem so terrified?

if only you could see how
terrifying a town
my mind is now,
you’d want to get out.

darling, it seems they’re right
when they’re saying things like,
there can be no darkness,
without also, the light.

I tried to forget you,
I did, but you took root in me,
wrapped yourself around my
collarbones, and day after day,
I am reminded of how hard it is
to breathe without you.
Day after day, I pick the flower
petals off and am reminded
that you love me
not.

Flowers do not cower and close up their petals when someone does not like them.

Flowers do not exist to please others, but instead their singular job is to make this planet a better place for everyone.

I’ve been drifting for days, floating.
Restless, like salt-battered wood that goes wherever the wind pushes the waves.
Somehow, I always end up at your feet, awash in foam on those white shores.
Tell me, will you drag me out and set me on fire?
It would be more than drifting aimlessly on the breeze.

Fireworks sound inside my chest every single time I hear those voicemails you sent me at 2 a.m.
