Honesty.
Love.
No longer a battle between, "good and evil" Or, "kind of and definitely."
You see it now, the manifestation of the wonder that you are, and the wonder that  you possess.
It is trying to come to life!
It is trying to come to life!
It is trying to come to life!
Yelling in your head to be heard by someone that will ask you to let it in.
Coming out of your eyes to be seen by someone that will ask you to let it in.
It's here.
The future.
The future that you couldn't have planned for.
The future that you couldn't have imagined.
The future that will be greater than anything that you could have hoped for.
It's here.
It's here.
Welcome it!! See it come through the door, and blind all of those who don't believe.
It's you.
It's you.
It's you.
Brighter than any star before you, and brighter than any star after.
It's you.
Embrace it, love it, live it, become you.
Your future awaits, and you owe it to yourself to not keep it waiting much longer.
It's been a long time. I finally had something worth writing about.

I laid there overwhelmed by feeling and emotion, and felt the excess being released onto my face only to be wiped away
It was rather unexpected
the unexpected burst of the dam that was trusted to do only one job
I didn't mind though
You didn't mind though
You heard the shallow breaths
You heard the deep sighs...

It's okay
It's okay
Baby, it's okay

I breathed
I relaxed
I repaired the dam with the three words you gave me

I love you

The three words that would be all I would ever need

all I would ever need

I looked in her eyes after I kissed her-
the moment before I died.
I saw the light that everyone talks about.
You know, the whole, "life flashed before my eyes light."
You and I were in our budding teenage years-
you 14, and I 16.
It was the day I said, "bye" before you left school,
and I chased after you to say what I meant to say-
I love you.
I saw my family standing around smiling at some-
Oh. It was us-
Well-
mostly focused on you-
everyone was looking down at your hand.
I saw you and I saying what appeared to be a temporary goodbye-
being ushered away by our respective best friends was the last thing I saw until-
I saw you-
I saw your face-
I saw your eyes shimmering in the natural light of the setting sun.
I kissed you-
Well I guess I kissed her-
Well he kissed her-
Now I say to you-
Here's to the new light to flash-
the new us to live
the new memories to make-
to an adventure far greater than the, "death do us part"
part.
Marriage is exciting to think about with her.

I tried sleeping it off, but I often found myself stuck in a dream transitioning to a nightmare.
I tried not sleeping at all, but even the smallest occurences brought you to my eyes.
I tried writing, but even the purest words were tainted by your memory.
I tried loving again, but once a house collapses there is no room where there are no rooms.
I tried everything I could think of to cure the ailment I once thought you were brought upon to expel.
I tried everything until I finally tried everything.
I truly am sorry I couldn't fight it any longer, but the days were too long, and the thoughts were too plenty.
Please think not of it as my quitting, but as your winning.
For this day forward, my beloved, I shall feel no pain.
Goodnight to you for the last, My Last, and may your life be the sweetest dream I forever hoped for you.
Literature. Love is powerful, love is deadly.

I gave her this look of undeniable honesty through my eyes, and expression.
I gave her this look that explained everything I felt about her, but I'm not sure she understood it.
I gave her this look, afraid it wasn't enough I grabbed her hand, and explained.
"It's going to happen, you and I. I've known of your existence as sure as I've known my own name. I've awaited your arrival as long as I've known of its meaning. I hold your hand in this moment, and my heart rate rises reminding me that I never want to let it go; to never let you go. I hold your glance in this moment accepting now the luxurious release of death, for you are the last thing I wish to see. As the future remains unwritten and my life could vanquish in a twitch I tell you now you are the realest thing I have ever known, and as sure as breath gives these words life shall I love you until time forgets my name, and the oceans turn to dust."
I gave her this look that revealed every secret I had ever had.

As sure as we arose in turn did the sun, and we knew it was all okay.
Time ticked, time tocked, past the windows of our skulls, and everything was still all okay.
We started to change in to something we hoped, but never desired to be and we fought it.
We fought it becuase that would no longer make everything okay.
We watched the moon ascend past the earth and the audience of the stars took their place, and again it was all okay.
We slept, and dreamt about wonders, and calmly smiled in our sleep all the while knowing that when we awoke again, everything would not be okay.
It's important that we learn to get out of our own way.. Life has potential to be much more than okay.

You're not a stranger


I am convinced I have known you my whole life.

It's never changing, you and I. but the concept of us is forever growing.
It doesn't matter how long we will go without speaking I know we remain the same.
You're not a stranger.


I am convinced I have known you my whole life.

Time attempts to drive a wedge between us, you and I, but that's where it lies amiss.
We've never quite been two separate people so we've just been gliding along the sands of time.
You're not a stranger.


I am convinced I have known you my whole life.

However, if one day I find it is I who is amiss, it will be the most sincere pleasure to meet you again.
