Your love is like the star
It twinkles in the dark
But all I can do is gaze
Until it's gone in the haze
Short writings for the whole week.
Pleasant words are like a honeycomb,
Sweetness to the soul and health to the bones.

Proverbs 16:24
My heart weeps in harmony with your sighs.
Eyes wandering over the rain of disillusionment.
That is what we are left with, these cold tears.

Cold tears that freeze into poignant memories.
Years have flown by, some fast, some slow.
A long time of collecting sleeping lazy dreams.

Lazy dreams that filter through me as I sleep.
Crazy thoughts that go nowhere, do nothing.
Yesterday is lost, it is never to embrace us again.

Embrace us again, that sometimes arises within.
I slip into those types of thoughts, pleasing me.
But these are temporary visions, impossible now.

Impossible now, that is the reality we now are.
Tenderly we see one another, such a passion.
Your heart beats and it reaches out to my heart.

My heart weeps in harmony with your sighs.
Eyes wandering over the rain of disillusionment.
That is what we are left with, these cold tears.

she was here a moment ago,
i messaged her,
she replied,
she was happy,
i thought,
i saw her yesterday,
she was fine,
on the outside,
i guess she wasn't,
she is gone now,
no where to be seen,
i tried ringing her,
but it went straight to her voicemail,
'sorry i couldn't get to the ph-'
i hang up every time,
she is gone,
and i could have made her stay,
i can't find her,
and i have been looking for ages,
everywhere,
the parks,
the shops,
school,
my place,
her house,
she is no where,
i can't find her,
she is gone forever.
I’m sorry for wearing your
shoulders down,
for wearing a rusted crown this entire time,
for disguising this threadbare throne,
I promise I’ll make every
burden of yours my own,
I’ve said you’ve ran from me
and I’ve held it against you,
there's no haste,
I understand
I've seen it second to you
and thirdhand,
and instead of servitude
I see aptitude,
you will escape,
sometime's instead of
pulling through the vice grips
you have to spin the other way,
I understand

theres nothing vein
in putting your pain before,
you’ve stopped running
yet when trouble tramples
as hard as it has,
the footprints are in cement,

it's easy turning a blind eye
to a mirror when the reflection
is a projection seen before,
I'll stay tight in vice
and keep my laces loose.
