To the one who got away,
I will always want you to be mine one day.
But we don't always get our way,
Or at least that's what they say.

I know how you would hold me after a long hard day
I know that when I'm sad you will know just what to say  
I know that we will argue
and neither one of us will always get our way
I know that our love won't be perfect
but in the end all our hard work will be worth it
I know I will love you more than life itself
because I have moved on since I wrote "another chapter on a shelf"
I know that you will forever make me smile
and that even five minutes without you will feel like a very long while
I know that we will be best friends
and that we will talk for hours on end
I know that laughter will fill our time
and that I will be so proud to call you all mine

My view count has reached over ten thousand! When I started posting a little over a year ago, I never imagined so many people would see the words that come from the deepest places of all my selves. I am forever grateful to everyone and anyone who has ever read a single word written by myself. This whole experience has been completely cathartic. My poetry has helped me through my darkest times and reminds me of my happiest times. So I just want to say thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to everyone who was there with me through this never ending journey that we call life.
Like over elated birthday balloons
         On tiny six foot ropes
I remember
The mushrooms
& How much
I loved your face
The hollow glow
Of a black lit room
& the way
That they made
    You taste
I pray
for lonely women
this Sunday
afternoon
in the dark corners
of dive bars
none
too soon
they flock
to the watering holes
humming
sad tunes
then slink
to the shady corners
of an underlit room
so I prey
for these

lonely

women
on this Sunday
after noon 0;)
It's a fast paced race
With no time to waste
Haste in the chase
At the taste of first place
For everything else
Will be replaced

No one wants to love you at 4 AM
because no one is awake
just go back
to that corner in your head
and find someone to love in your dreams
because baby no one loves you
why can't you get that through your head?
No one is awake to be loved - but you and your dreams

I’m uncomfortable with a crowded room
partly because there’re so many personalities mashing into one
and too many conversations being held out of spite
i’m restless to the idea of meaningful small talk
because I truly do not believe in it’s existence
no one is happy to be here
and we’re all drowning our sadness
in different ways that no one would ever know
we're forcing ourselves to become one
and I will never understand
There was an old person of Minety
Who purchased five hundred and ninety
Large apples and pears,
Which he threw unawares,
At the heads of the people of Minety.
