I am one with the universe
Full of galaxies and stars
Bright light hides beneath my skin
My heart feels warm like my mind
I don't ever fall anymore, I keep floating
My soul is finally free

Empathy
Lily Dunlap Apr 2016
I never understood why people said
"I feel your pain" it's not like you can actually FEEL someone's pain right?
Now I know more than ever what they mean...
I do feel your pain
I soak up all of your emotions
Sadness
Anger
Euphoria
I cry all of your tears
I know why you're agitated
You laugh, I laugh along with you
Your happiness is my happiness
Your sadness is my sadness
Your anger is my anger
I'm not sure you'll understand
But
I feel your pain, I understand
I'm here for you.

The way flesh needs freedom  
And to spontaneously combust within the universe whenever we see fit  
The way our souls need intimacy  
Secretly craving just one to genuinely admire and love them for them ( granting every flaw admission into that promise)  
To need you  
Is un bottling the sacred feelings one wants to keep hidden but secretly are dying to spill every last intention  
Scared as hell to admit the fact that  
I'd lose my mind minus you  
Sleepless nights minus you  
Heart forever tainted minus you  
Body, mind and soul starved and deprived minus you  
To need you

Grounding
Lily Dunlap Apr 2016
My bare feet on Mother Earth's precious soil
Rejuvenating energy emerges from the soft surface
I am aware, I am mindful
My soul is nourished by the warmth of the sunshine's rays
I listen to the domain surrounding me
The birds chirping reminds me of better days
The gorgeous breeze helps me to forget the stress in my life
Toxins rush out of my body
Negative feelings subside
It's almost like the world is saying
"You're safe here, no need to worry
Mother Nature will take care of you
Just keep yourself grounded"

Delusion

You gave me chest pains
And I claimed it was love

Social Anxiety
Lily Dunlap Apr 2016
I walk in, everyone looks at me from the sound of the door opening
But it feels like a million laser beams are burning me to the core
Suddenly I feel weak, vulnerable
Every amount of confidence goes away
I feel so helpless, scared and sensitive
Like I'm screaming for help and no one can hear me
They just stare at me like I'm a ******* idiot for being this emotional over something any sane person shouldn't be afraid of
I feel so lost, in a world full of pain
I'm trapped under a spell and I can't escape, I feel like a puppet on strings
I feel held back from living my life on the sidelines instead of taking control
I will never escape this torture
I feel so alone

— The End —
