I'm not so good at naming things
I don't see the importance or meaning it brings

I'm not very good at creating titles
I think too much, my brain goes idle

It's just something I'm not good at
I realize it, and embrace my flaws
It takes time and patience
To be good at anything at all

One day, perhaps, I will come up with something great
Until then, I am going to just keep writing and wait

My mind is always running between first and last,
Highs and lows
Trying to discover the secrets of life,
Secrets that no one else knows

My mind doesn't know when it's made up
Or when it's undone
Always searching the depths of forever,
And forever it'll run

My mind is in constant wonder
Looking for messages where no messages lie
I don't suppose it'll ever stop,
Not even when I die

But death is a funny thing, you know
We think it's here, then it goes
Coming much too fast, coming much too slow

My mind is always running between first and last
My mind knows nothing
My minds forgot about the past

My mind is made up on me and you
There's no changing it, it'll fight till its blue
My mind is a quiet and crazy place that I wish you could see
My mind is a master of fools
The biggest one being me

We are animals
Look in our eyes and see fear
We are all the same

You say I've changed you,
well,
you've changed me too.

Can't sleep, for I'm thinking of you
And all these feelings
You've put me through
I just want to write poems
In hopes that you will too
And one day we will show each other
What we stayed up late writing
While we were apart
From each other's aching hearts
We will laugh at the silly lines
And the metaphors that don't make sense
But we couldn't help but try
Just the thought helps us get by
You held my hand as we looked up at the sky
And once again, we said goodbye

I could love someone,
but not
like
I
do
you

From atop the roof I see mountains, rivers, side by side
I sit here just looking, the clouds act as a guide

I notice the beauty, even without you here
(don't confuse this for meaning I don't want you near)

The trees, tall, beginning to shed their autumn leaves
looking a little like you, and a little like me

For now, we're apart, and this is all I need
Here, alone, in quiet company
