You're a dream
That crawled into my bed
And never came true

You're a laugh
          About to burst into tears

What you are
          Is vague
                And beautiful

i want to stay this time
to actually build something.
but i know i will leave
and all that i started
will remain unfinished.
I am a moving vessel
full of half-experiences
half-relationships
and unfinished business.
i wish i could stay
and call this place my home
but i have itchy feet
and a ready-packed suitcase.
i can not reject my nature.
one day, i will stay
when my heartbeat stops
and my feet are still.
when i am lowered to the ground
i promise to stay put.
But right now i have to leave.
I am always leaving and moving away and it feels like i will only get to stay in one place when i'm dead. I really hope not, though.

One drop
Two drops
Three drops of tea
Spilled as I witnessed
They now connect
Emptiness it brings
Within the undisturbed
That holds the space
And stillness
To unfurl the moment
And let go
All things pass

If Love is a disease
then I'm very sick
but incredibly happy....

Things that nobody talks about:
The desperation of loving someone who doesn't love you
How the sun feels warmer when you've spent a year being cold
The feeling of weightlessness after crying yourself to sleep
When he stares long and hard at you and smiles softly, making your eyes feel shy even when you are not
How people who used to exist in your orbit still take chunks off of your surface, even when you've taken so many hits you hardly exist.

Things that nobody talks about:
Even when you've moved on, even when you've found someone who loves you more, even when you've discovered better things, your skin remembers things best forgotten.

I'm drifting
through my dreams,
occasionally colliding
with a hint of certainty.
I'm higher than I seem,
fighting the concept
of reality as a means.
I'm lost in the sky.
I can't remember why,
but life is just easier
when I get a little high.
