I am sitting in a restaurant, minding my business and drinking my tea.
A large man swiftly jumps into my booth
"bbq ribs with fries and ketchup" he says
"all you can eat"
I start to stumble on my words as he receives his plate.
"I don't know him, I didn't order."
I try to speak, but confusion clouds my judgement.
He starts to eat.
Confused, I stare.
The BBQ drips off his face
I sit there frozen
He takes a bite, finishing off
Another plate arrives.
"Konnichiwa" he says
"HUHH????????" I say very loudly in confusion, as this was a caucasian man.
Another plate arrives
"RABBITS." he says.
"Wha?" I say irritated
I start to lose my ****.
"Get out of my booth sir." I say.
"Naw." he says with a mouthful of barbeque.
He takes another bite.
So as I ****** his plates
"NOOOOOOOOOOO." he yells in slow motion.
Right then, the plates slip out of my hands fiercely hitting the waiter.
But not only did it hit the waiter, it hit the waiter beside him, and splattering on a group of waiters singing happy tenth birthday to a young boy.
Everyone starts to scream and panic.
"Time to go." I say quietly laughing.
He tries to chase me and falls over.
I make it right outside of the restaurant, as I hear the cops.
I bolt.
"Well that backfired." I say as I ran;
all you can eat.

the floor was wet, and slippery.
beautiful shades of brown, and as the floor started to shake,
it fell through,
to an abyss, or so I thought.
As I float through space, looking around me covered in stars,
a doorway opens, and I fall through.
I start to scream, and I start to yell as
branches start to scratch me and there I fell.
Lost, and alone
I look around me.
"I hear crickets." I say, confused and on guard.
But it's quiet, and it's peaceful.
I walk and I hear leaves crunch under me, the oranges and the yellows.
Another door appears, an arm reaching through this space.
"You finally made it! You're here!"
I grab his hand and walk through.

in every universe
you are my favorite shade of blue.
my heart floats through galaxies
astral projecting to where you are
you are my moon
my stars
and my brightest sun
if i hold my love
inside
for just one second
I swear it would
leak out of me
the  best parts of me
are the pieces
that love you.

i am a willow tree swaying in the wind
storms and strong winds have flown around me.
but here I stay.
for I am a force, and cannot be withered away.
no lightening, no thunder, no tornado or rain
could make me be any less than I am
for I am a willow tree.

if you feel lost
and you cant figure it out
retrace your steps
and it will show you the way

no one can do it for you
you have to do all the work on your own
they can be there to listen and guide you
and try to keep you warm

but until you go outside
in the pouring rain
and work through it until you find your sun again.

it will always rain.

the noise is gone
and so is all the clutter
I worked through it all
and came out from under the rain
you opened the door
you gave the space
you gave the time
I'm finally free

happiness.
a word that has always been
foreign to me,
but here I am everyday
swimming and dancing
all in it
with all the giggles
and laughter
kisses
and melting  into
this beautiful life with you.

washing dishes  in the kitchen
as you kiss me and I smile
long discussions about
bills to dancing in the kitchen
and your hands on my hips

wrestling nights and bets
in the living room
my heart is full
when I see the both of you

you give so much
of your time
to  provide
when you walk inside;
I smile
that excitement filling me up
from my stomach to my racing heart;
that hug, that kiss, you're home.

the good days, the stormy days, the sunny days,
the hard days, the tough days,
the successful days, the days where
the stress builds up and only a hug will do;
everyday for the rest of my life
it will always be you
for the first time of my life
everyday...
I am happy.
