Silent Love
Joleam Nov 25
Beautiful people
Gorgeous world
Pretty universe
One force

Love
It’s the foundation of life
A feeling
That’s always there

Friendship
Romance
Family
So many different kinds

Love is everywhere you go
If you look closely
It’s in you
You carry it everywhere

So much love
It never ends
So many beautiful people
And then there is me

Me between all these people
Loving everyone
Loving endlessly
Loving without judgement

It’s the silent type of love
The one that‘s always there
You can’t see it
It’s a feeling that‘s always with you

Panic Attack
Joleam Nov 13
It’s everywhere
No matter where I look
Always there
In every crock

There is no escape
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to run
There is no escape

I turn and turn and turn
Looking for a way out
All I find is fear
Very near

It’s all I can see
I don’t know how to breathe
My heart is racing
I‘m shaking

Where do I go?
Where is the way out?
Where do I go?
Where is the way out?

My tears are blinding my vision
My breath is pacing
My heart is racing
My body made a decision

Fear is all I feel
All I see is red
Everything is unreal
I wish for my forever bed

Suddenly everything is clear
The end is near
I am here, still breathing
The panic fleeting

Love
Joleam Nov 13
A thing I hate,
But it’s in my fate.
To love,
To be loved.

A thing we can’t explain,
Something so mundane.
To love,
To be loved.

A thing that’s always there,
Even if you feel it nowhere.
To love,
To be loved.

A thing that moves the world,
If unfurled.
To love,
To be loved.

A thing we all desire,
Hot as burning fire.
To love,
To be loved.

A thing that hurts so bad,
It makes me sad.
To love,
To be loved.

A thing that feels so good,
Something I never understood.
To love,
To be loved.

A thing that has two sides,
Can move the tides.
To love,
To be loved.

A thing that’s never seen,
It feels like a dream.
In the end,
It is your friend.

Breaking Free
Joleam Nov 13
Fogged up windows
It’s hard to see
No matter where I look
It’s all blurry

Feeling lost
No idea where I‘m going
Nowhere to go
Just floating

The fog gets thicker
My vision blurs
Nothing to be done
Until it all bursts

Thousand splinters flying
I can hear myself crying
I‘m finally free
And it was all me

Took a rock
Bound it to a chain
No going back
Splinters falling like rain

Bruised and bleeding
Stepping out
Peace feels fleeting
**** me now

Another glass
Another fogged up window
My vision blurs
Where can I go?

A new rock
Splinters falling again
Picking them up
Admiring them

Taking them on my way
Letting me know it’s okay
To feel the fear
Even as a tear

There is no way without fear
It’s always here
I can only decide
The space I provide

A former friend
Joleam Nov 18
Like rain
There is always pain
Small droplets hitting the ground
One after another

There is no constant rain
But always pain
Sometimes it hits me like lightning
So sudden it’s frightening

A constant ache
A constant longing
Sometimes vage
Sometimes all encompassing

There is no wall between us
Only the thing you don’t know
That I won’t tell you
Even if it’s true

I miss us
Authenticity
No judgement
Just comfort

I want to try
But can’t build a friendship based on a lie

— The End —
