Always remember
When the loneliness breaks through
That to peer into the darkness
Is a gift from me to you

The dread is overwhelming
It eats into your soul
Infecting that tiny part of you
That is positive and whole

Don't be afraid of who you are
Your special cant you see
Complexity is your power
It connects you to me

Oskar Erikson
let each leaf in the forest
be a love story that anybody can walk through when
they feel alone.

let each late night car ride
carry sonnets, starlit whispers and murmurs
in case it feels a little too much.

let each poem in this logbook
be able to reach into your longing heart and empty hands
for whenever you thought you weren't loved.

i am always one poem away from saying "i love you."

Little yellow daffodils,
Swaying in the wind.
Pretty yellow daffodils,
By the roots they're pinned.


Little Singing mourning doves,
Sweetly fluttering in.
I plucked up a daffodil,
Whispering of sin.


I love my little daffodil,
To it's unhappy disdain.
The life of my daffodil is short,
Barely any more remains.


It's my fault, my pretty daffodil,
That you will die young.
But remember my soft lullaby,
I always gently sung.


You are love, my little daffodil,
A pleasure mixed with lust.
My peachy little metaphor,
Dying so quickly it's unjust.
I honestly don't even know anymore. I'm sitting at home with a migraine, so I wrote a poem. No inspiration, no real meaning to me, but I still wrote it.
I try to reach out
You don't respond
This gives me doubt
But I still continue on

I communicate again
Not a voice to be heard
Does she not want me then?
I wish I could be sure
Going through tough times and feeling tough emotions. Just another piece fueled off my reality

— The End —
