You
my mind is awake
with you
dont leave me yet

the alcohol slips through your lips
is that pain i see?

it must be.

and the blunt isnt enough to mask it
either

i see you
broken

i realize that things are
different
now

i cant look at the truth

but it remains
and im gone

the night swallows me whole as i try to
escape
what i fear most

and i cannot face it yet
maybe ever

and the wind soaks into my skin
and im alive
even just for a moment

Its hard to find that
true
that people say exist.

I see you,
and your smile
could only be fake.

For I have never experienced such a thing.

But no,
it is as real as anything,
it glows and this
I know.

The depth of you,
all of who you are,
and will become to be,
is simply
extraordinary.

Maybe its hard to believe,
but I see the twinkling
magic,
in your eyes.

I will never cease to believe
your light
that I have discovered.

Somehow
I feel more connected
to that light
and I am forever
grateful.
One of my favorite people.

It is hard to
comprehend,

what you mean to me.

I could fall to you
and
I don't think
I would
mind.

But the real question
too crossed to
understand.

For where are you now?

You have tried so hard,
for
I have seen it, a glimpse.

I witness your grief,
dear,
and its all too
familiar.

We are the same,
but you left,
and I was gone once again.

We could have shared,
such a simple
occurrence.

But even that was taken.

Dear,
I've been lost.

But finding you is only the
beginning.

Because,
it seems,
your walls are almost as tall,
and thick,
as mine.

And you lost yourself as well,
along the way,
once upon a time,

and I return, and
I see it.

Disconnecting completely,
and this time,

I understand.

I would
give
just so much for
this.

This simple motion,
what is this now?

Not love surely,
nothing close to that.

For how is that
word
even used in one's
vocabulary?

Shrinking under the weight of your
stares,
It is my only choice.

I can feel you
across the
universe
and I used
to just let it be.

But
I have waited
and
now your eyes have gone missing.

I used to live there
in those magical,
mesmerizing
sea arson eyes.

For the fire burns the waves
that your water eyes possess.

But too faded now.

I used to let it be
until today
when
it ceased to be actually
okay.

What are these walls?

Not cement,
for all I do,
is one simple touch,
causing that downfall.

Collapsing, caving,
you're exposed now.

I see you, Naomi.

It is a hasty
life
so they say

and I could not agree more.

The soft sighs of you
distract
the ideas you have of the
truth.

Lies to me
are
much too real.

Live in the way I know
and then
perhaps,
you may know me once more.

Sacrifice
is what I've heard
of you
and
she is too real.
And then in truth,
the mirror
cracks.

Loving a flower
is so
easy,

and I have seen it done before.

For there are those,
innocence,
creating daisy crowns,
happily.

or lovers,
exchanging roses,
emotions bursting,
publicly.

But you are one of those,
but whole.
For innocence and beauty simply
cannot
sum up all of who you are.

Magic,
living within yourself
has caused your
downfall,
but you are living,
spinning out,
now.
My best friend! I love her to pieces.
