my mind
always filled with memories
and thoughts
of you.
for awhile now
i’ve been wondering how to say it all.
every emotion
linked to the thoughts of you
that flow through my cerebrum.
thoughts, memories
leading to emotion
that make my pulse quicken.
my heart beating fast
then it seems to stop.
like a robot
i feel
i have to manually breathe.
you do this to me...
i long to
feel, touch
taste
explore
your body again.
i yearn to
know your soul
from the inside out
as i once did.
i crave
to connect with you
as done in the past.
one day
i hope
we will
be one
again.

why is it
that
we grow up
learning
what they want us to learn.
we are to conform.
why is it
that
we grow up
thinking
what they want us to think.
we are to not ask questions.
why is it
that
we grow up
knowing
what they want us to know.
we are to accept this.
without questioning
why we must learn this
why we must think this
why we must know this.
school.
religion.
work.
tv.
advertisments.
internet.
food.
­consumer products.
we are all brainwashed
to do what they want us to do
to act how they want us to act
to say what they want us to say
to know what they want us to know
to think what they want us to think
to believe what they want us to believe
we need to learn how to be free
to believe what we want to believe
to think what we want to think
to know what we want to know
to say what we want to say
to act how we want to act
to do what we want to do
to be us.
be you.

I long to
see the sun rises,
the gulls flying,
hear the whispers of the wind.
I long to
see the flowers bloom,
hear the birds chirping,
watch the waves as they come in.
I long to
breathe the air of the cold February afternoon,
watch the snow fall on the trees,
feel the stillness of winter.
I don’t long to live
for money
or success
or greed.
I long to live
to appreciate the beauty
of the world,
of nature,
of life...
how it should be.

I am fragile and broken and selfish and lost.
I loved you with my fragile, broken, selfish heart,
and I am still lost.
You are passionate and fragile and selfless and lost.
You loved me passionately with your fragile and selfless heart,
and you are still lost.
I cared for you with every bone in my body,
every inch of my soul.
But I broke your heart cause I felt I had to let you go.
Cause you loved me so selflessly and I was so selfish...
and I loved you so wrong...
and  it hurts me so bad.
I could never love you so chivalrously, as you loved me.
I’ll continue to be lost,
I’m sure you will too,
until one day I hope my heart will find the right way to love you.
Then we will no long be lost,
together we will find
everything we searched for throughout our lives.
