If there ever was man who could burn a bridge...
...I’d set fire to the village.
I’d kidnap the mayor, hold him for ransom and cut off his head after the note was paid.
I’d pour salt on the fields, spill blood in the river, and drip poison in the wells.
I’d **** your first born.
If there ever was a man who could burn a bridge,
I’m your man…
…and there aren't many roads left that lead to my village.

As if the fire wasn't enough.
They decide to spit on the ashes.
I still remember the smoke though
And how it stung my eyes
As tears poured out like waterfall.
I'll never forget what was once there.
Such a loss.

there isn't anything to be said
Nothing to be seen
there isn't an interesting thing about it
in fact no one really cares
but that's just the fact
some exploding stars go off in the night sky but no one ever notices
that my friend is like so many unsung songs and unread stories.
the silent passing of disaster and the bandless parade.

The smell of fresh earth
The sun shining through cracks
The smoothness of a womans skin
The sound of birds chirping at the break of dawn
The taste of strawberries
The memories of romantic nights never easily forgotten
The occasional smile on a strangers faces when you say hello
Staring at the sun
and the green and pink stains it leaves when you close your eyes
The attention from another woman,
especially one that's got your heart.
Dew left on the leaves of trees.
Holding someones hand
Watching a kid get exactly what they want
Running
Writing a song with other people
A good book, preferably a classic
Science and how it brighten ups the world with possibility and impossibility.
Poetry
A sad love song
and a sad lonely instrument in an array of other instruments
Sleep
Exercise
Dancing like an idiot.
Dancing with someone you love
though I don't think I've ever done this
*** with someone you love
it's really quite different
Teaching someone something new
An intelligent conversation
not just talking at someone or being talked at
there is a difference
Being understood
Being in love
Hiking
Biking
Nature walks
Being needed
Living

These are all things I love
And there are more
But this was all I needed to remind myself that it's all worth it this morning.

let it go
it's hard
life isn't a relationship child
it's not about that
it's about you
you are beautiful and you will find love again should you not look for it but let it come
love isn't something you can demand out of someone
it is given
it is like waiting for rain
it doesn't come when you want it
it comes when it comes
and it goes when it goes
you will be okay
you've gone through so much worse
so so much worse
i know because I know you
because i am like you too
i've cried over losing someone i loved
and i've grown from it
i've come through, scared, bruised, and sore
but I've come through
and i've been better for it.
you will too

Heaven was not found.
You've showed me it was here, now,
in life and in love.

But yet, in your arms
bliss is over abundance.
A world full of love.

You are beautiful.
The stuff of songs and poems.
The birds sing for you.

I am a nothing,
but with you I become more.
I am your lover.

My heart, it is yours
to keep and have forever.
This I promise you.

Yet, our love is new.
The waters must be test.
Heavy are our hearts.

Could they sink like rocks?
Perhaps, our love is buoyant;
I do believe so

There are not enough
hours in the day to show you
the love I have.

No eternity
could ever be enough to
give you all my love

My heart, it falls deep,
into the stomach it slips,
only to jump up.

My heart, it leaps forth
Into your hands; it is yours,
there for whenever.

That's the way it is.
My love will always be yours
Never could that change.

{}

And the sun may boom
and asunder into nothing,
my love will still burn.

And the cities fall
and crumble into debris,
my love will live on.

And the seas may dry
into the dust and the dead earth,
my love will still thrive

And the stars shine not
taking with them the night skies,
my love will still glow

You are the burning
ember that sets ablaze the
flames within my heart.

Our hearts are heavy with the weight of the world.
They sink deeper and deeper into a sea of troubles and worries. 
There is no land of ours we can call home anymore.
We are restless wonders on an everlasting voyage to nowhere.
 
We once were like you, forgetful 
But we remember
And that is how we got so lost.
