Your smile kills me

In good ways and bad

Now that you're free

It makes me happy and sad
It's been a long while since I've written anything. I've been in a funk and a lot of things have happened. Not sure I'm completely back, but I guess this is a start.

Infamous one
Music heals the soul
The heart grows
Desires burn within
Above all the negative
Away from the toxic people
Find your way a solo journey
Think for yourself
Too many voices
Saying what's best
Not doing their best
Thoughts of being alone
No longer a fear
Overcome so many obstacles
Use to doing it alone
Empowered to grow
New thoughts and mind set

What I want
Is for you to smile
What I want
Is to stay a while
What I want
Is to hold me close
What I want
Is you the most

Mellow waves
Go follow your dreams they say,
Well, how can i follow them if people can’t stop putting boarders,
If they can’t stop interfering with your life,
Pushing you too hard
Making you want to quit in times when you were fine all by yourself,
Why can’t everyone focus on their path in life? Is it too hard?
Does that sound impossible to you?
Just leave me and my life alone
I will carve my path as beautiful as i can
And with some bumps along the way,
I will create the most compelling work of art.

I'm scared I'll be so happy
That I'll forget about you over time

But then I think

And then I remember

That you're already gone

The universe puts her headphones on
And plays her favorite track
The raindrops in the meadow burst
And soak the earth
And with her feet up on the world
She smiles from ear to ear
And plays it back
What songs does the universe listen to? Is there a more beautiful sound than the rain falling in the secluded meadow. Truthfully, I don't know. But I do love the sound of these words as they roll off the tongue. YUPP!

I could never tell you
exactly what's going on inside my head,
so I'll write instead.
Drown my thoughts in paper & lead.
Keep my hands alive,
and my expression dead.
