In the morning, I saw the sun shining brightly, as if cheering for me.
I thought today would be the day to make a difference.
I would do all the things I wanted to do.
I would be a new version of myself—the one I always wanted to be.

While thinking about all of it, I noticed the sun was gone,
and there was the moon, consoling me for my loss, lulling me to sleep.
So I slept.

And again, the next morning became my next today,
with the sun coming up again
The world was meant
To be seen
From eyes like
Yours I can
Recall when you
Sunk on to my
Couch and told me
The sunlight from
My favorite window
Feels the same
As the beach day
We had three years ago
With our friends
We haven’t spoken to
In months
I stared at you
For what felt like
A while you
Wondered why I
Just smiled and
You bent down
To pet the dog
But how was I
Supposed to tell you
The most
Beautiful form of
Poetry I’d ever seen
Was the way you
View the world
‘isn’t the sun warm?’  said the bear, ‘and look i speak in italics’



yes, it makes me feel better.



‘which the warmth or the format?’
All I can think of is
How I love you in
The same way that I
Loved her first
Laughing at inside jokes
Making eye contact from
Across the room
Pushing each other
Harder
Telling me
We’re okay everything is
Going to be fine
And as she left there
Was hurt it
Faded to the background
You appeared and now
We make our
Own inside jokes
Stare from across the room
Push each other
Harder knowing
We’re okay everything is
Going to be fine
And I learned she
Is not gone at all I
Still love her
And always will and
I still love you
And always will and
There is someone else
Who I will love next

One day when I wake up, the world won’t be the same.
The people will be different.
They will treat me differently,
their reasons for doing so will be different.
But I will be the same person,
who will see them as different
but treat them the same.
Can we linger here
For a while
Laying in bed
And listening to the rain song
On the roof?

The comforter a shield
From the sharp cold around us
And the smell of old books
Wafting through the air
The falling leaves a jigsaw
We can put together
In shades of red

I’ll bring you apple cider
-your favorite fall drink
While I’ll have something
Probably with a tinge of pumpkin spice

When the sun goes to rest
And the rain carries on
We’ll drift off on the melody
Of the ever changing chorus
Above us

It’s lovely
To lay here
With you
