BEING THERE ,
Seeing it all;
Merely being a doll ,
Pinned  to the wall,
I've no choice,
But  to just be there .
Witness it all.
I feel so helpless,
Like  I can do nothing ,
But see them suffer as they suffer-
Yearning for help.

I see many reach out to them,
Their kindness easing  much pain;
My mind burns inside of me,
My heart reaches out to them-
To those who suffer;
But the glass wall ,
There it is ,
Blocking  my path-
Too high to climb,
Too thick to penetrate.
But all, just for now.

The wall will perish over time,
My will will grow strong over time,
And one day,
My heart will reach out for them,
And  I –making my way through the broken glass ,
Will be there for them-
Later when ,
When the glass wall breaks,
And my will grows strong.
I sat along this opened window,
wishing to escape your empty home.
Yet, you will never archive my peace,
You're clogging up my bones.
Sadly in your breath stung darkness,
I knew this house was my prison,
when this home stayed dark as night,
after the sun had risen.
You ignored my pleas for leaving,
and left a window open.
I'll escape as I've pled before,
if only I could focus.
Yet you knew what I could do,
as you stared into my past.
You closed the window with a smirk,
and said you felt a draft-
Funny back story, I made this a couple months back after watching a cartoon.
Two dogs are competing to get someone to go to their gym.
One places their hands on the open window sill,
and the other calmly reaches over saying "I think I feel a draft,"
slamming the window on his fingers.
I don't know, I'm weird. It made me think, and I made this. :)
All feedback is welcome and appreciated

Many would say 
Yes,I am fool
If I laid awake at night
And only thought of you

Dreaming of you
Have become my hobby
I can't imagine
Life without you.

Yes, I am dumb
Stupid even, for you
You never felt my feelings
Yet destroying those was easy for you.

You grow a mustache
I'll buy a car
We'll go cruising on Sunday afternoons
My fingers in your hair
Yours quietly crawling up my skirt

We can tell the neighbors there's a baby on the way
But you'll say **** it all and get another tattoo
My love inked across your arm
And I'll sit amid the garden pansies
Dirt between my toes and your laughter in my ears

When Christmas comes we'll hang lights
Every color I can find
Strung from every roof tile you can reach
We'll be the best on the block
Even when the neighbors complain in February

I'll wear a blue dress
You'll take me out, best restaurant in town
An anniversary in suburbia
But we'll come home with bottles of ***
Wake up on our own neatly mowed lawn

You won't wash the car
I don't want to take any kids to school
We'll get mad, get even, make up
And do it all over again
Make them all wonder where all this began


You and I could change our minds
Go back to the start of it all
Find ourselves with barely ******* entwined
When it was still enough just to go
For a five minute drive
Your hand in mine.
... ..... ......... ........... ..... .......... ....... ... it's
reassuring  that  someday    rain   will
not remind me of  you banjos will not
make me think of  y o u r  fingers  my
couch will not whisper  "I    love   you
you know I   love   you" anymore that
song                    you like will not have
your                    laugh  ringing   under
i       t                  my      favorite sweater
w   i   l   l      no    l o n g e r    have   the
lingering s c e n t of your shampoo my
hands will not ache for your hands my
lungs  will   not  burn  from   a i r   that
isn't                                                   yours
How long does heartbreak actually last?




I'm in a shapes phase right now.

By The River
it was quiet by the river

only her sniffles and the crashing of water was heard

it was almost as if we were the only ones on this earth

i listened as her heart cried

the vulnerability was so surreal

my arm went around her shoulders

i could feel her breaking underneath me

the sky that evening was beautiful

with its paint stroke clouds

painting a story like the one she was telling about
13 | 31 Poems for August 2017

I wrote many of my poems in Braille for the kind of love I was desperately longing to feel.
I’m still catching feelings; my words are revealing and that’s why you’ll know that this poem is about you.
Let me tell you about my version of events while we listen to Emeli Sandé on any given Sunday.
For what it’s worth, I was only trying to make things work, but I got high on love during my hiatus.
I’ve had to learn to love you in silence and as if that wasn’t enough, I’ve had to learn to love you from a distance.
I know you didn’t give me permission to, but I already started talking to God about you.
Maybe in your quiet time at exactly the right time, I could possibly be your one and only valentine.
I think I finally understand it now, I’m a hopeless romantic who insists on remaining hopeful.
Let me tell you about my version of events while we listen to Emeli Sandé on any given Sunday.
I never knew,

One queen can change the world.
Overwhelmed by the earths need
Clouds are grey and history repeats.
A change is seeked
As this beautiful queen steps foot on this earth
And plants a loving seed.

I never knew,

The grass gets greener on this side of earth,
Where the air is polluted
The waters in every lake and pound shower to shallow
And the mountains grow steep
But I guess that's love getting deeper.

I never knew,

A rainbow can form over the tallest mountain
Tops are frozen with snow
Some people wonder how in this drenched weather
Can 2 worlds come together.
Now what do we have ?
Peace & Happines
A world never showed.
Look up to the clouds
No doubt you'll see a change in the sky !
A breath of fresh air;
When 2 worlds collide.

bones
The clock is ticking,
Bon Iver playing in the background,
Every note dragging her in deeper.

She's sitting on the sofa;
Shoulders hunched,
Tugging at the sleeves of her jumper,
Wine glass in one hand,
The other wiping away her tears as they fall.  

She wonders if she'll ever get over this;
This feeling of hopelessness ripping her to shreds,
She wonders if she'll ever make it out alive,
Without you by her side.
I got inspired to write this while listening to the Bon Iver album, "For Emma,Forever Ago".
