i think less
deserve more
feeling low
yet seem so high
my heart is far
you are close
go away
come back
this place is large
but i remain small
you
me
leave me be.

the silence is deafening
ringing in my ears
yet
you get comfortable with the lonesome
you want
and you want
and you even want some more

but

in the end
all you have
is you.
taylor kathleen Jan 2018
for you are you
and i am me
my heart is broken
please set me free.

it is time for growth
self care
from this pain
i must repair.

not sure how to get there
nor which road to take
but with the path that lies ahead
the choice is mine to make.

forgive my intentions
forget the past
all i have is now
all i have is me
sighing for relieve at last.

intelligent beyond measure
confident through endeavors
quirky with a dark twist
someone for whom a man will wish

within the deep core
he learns more
a broken room of misfortune
closes the doors which were once open

this is her
fully & entirely

take me the way i am.

she is unique
the way her curls dance in
the glimmer of sunshine
her soft voice
dripping words sweet as honey
those eyes
presenting a movie of light
and dark
feet which have ran from home
walked through regions
far & wide for miles and miles
her ears have heard the sounds
of misery
of hope
she is one to fear
she is one to appreciate
she is one to love

respect for the elders
their sage words
helped meld her

into her radiance
speaking the truth
transitioning to adulthood
away from her youth

growing like the oak
so stable and strong
her supportive family
showed her who she was all along

roots to roots

her child bore her traits
thankful for the elders
who replaced love for hate

i feel you more than nature
and now i am numb
i hear you more than my teachers
and now i am deaf
i obey you more than my parents
and now i am powerless
i trust you more than my best friend
and now i am guarded
i love you more than my partner
and now i am alone
i protect you more than my child
and now i am broken
i see you more than my own path
and now i am blind
i need you more than i need myself
and now i am lost

where is my mind?
