Keep your eyes on me through the dark and narrow road
I know you are scared but you are not alone
Can barely see the hand in front of you but know it's my hand guiding you.

You're tired and I understand
But child know I have the perfect plan
So trust me and you will see
Everything you need is found in me.

i spend my days
pouring myself into the cups of others

only to find that
when it’s time for myself
to take a sip

all that’s left
in my cup
is the remainder of a girl
who gave too much
self care is extremely important. most days I fight my depression by putting smiles onto others faces, but forgetting about my once bright smile.

There are approximately 470,000 words in the English language

4 syllables in “Hey, How are you?”

9 letters in “Beautiful”

3 words in “I love you”

And still

I can’t find a single thing to say

When your smile accidentally makes my day.

I traced the texture of your words
Like my heart was blind
And your voice was braille

David Lessard
I used to read your poems
but lately you don't write
you're silent and aloof
you know that isn't right.
You can't close a door once opened
you can't abolish all your dreams
you're a poet of the heart
mustn't fall apart at the seams.
Say what you can in words
they speak the message true
spoken from the heart
the poems will see you through.
A hermit's not your style
a recluse, you are not
never give up writing
of things that you've been taught.
I used to read your poems
I'd read them once again
if you would send them out
(this one's from a poet friend)

Leap

Take the leap,
And live to tell the tale.
You'll make mistakes,
But you will never fail.
I see you in my dreams, your face ever changing
But your body is still the same
Taste
Feel
Look
Adore
Something I crave and want to try
Maybe only once
A second hit to make it real
But nonetheless
A one hit wonder of a fantasy
