If I love you
as much as I think
I'll let you be
the wind,
disastrous.
I am merely
a dandelion,
delicate.
As fate would
have it...
You blew me away...
But you,
the wind,
brought clouds of rain,
and I scattered onto a field.
All of me opened up
to you
and like nature
would have it...
I blossomed.

I explain my metaphors with metaphors
I don't know how else to express
My thoughts that sit in clutter drawers
And leave my mind a mess

If you don't understand my comparison
I'll just say it in a different way
My thoughts still shielded by a garrison
Suppressing things I need to say

the sky is gray and cloudy
it's cool but not too cold
my world is resting soundly
safely and controlled

my blanket's warm and cozy
don't make me leave my bed
please go and don't be nosy
while I revisit books I've read

this kind of day makes me smile
and makes the world seem sweet
so please just let me be a while
this time is such a treat

for any meaning to flow through my fingertips
or for flowery words to pass my lips
it seems I must experience a personal apocalypse
or lose myself in romantic feelings' grips

falling apart, my world crumbles
each breath I take, a catastrophic stumble
my motivation hardly mumbles
my brain maintains a senseless jumble
and the words seep through my pores

falling in love, my world glows
each breath I take, my jubilance grows
my motivation never slows
my brain maintains a continual flow
and the words seep through my pores

so which is it today?
well who's to say?
maybe it all sounds too cliche.
at least I'm writing anyway.
