they say that i'll get over him
but when they say that they aren't thinking about the same things as me

about how he moved on inside of two weeks after we broke up
and how i had loved him unconditionally for the past 9 months of my life
or how he knows my secrets and i know his and that's what trust is, right?

he wasn't mine
and i think i believed that he was for too long
and now it's turned into a habit
When I realised
just how much I loved this woman
and that she felt the same
my best friend, my safe place
I crossed happiness off the bucket list
.
.
I always think about you gorgeous.


I cry silent tears
In the stillness of the night
My room is dark,
And the stars lit the sky
That mirrors your face
In every tear-drops of mine

I cry silent murmurs
In the isolation of my self
That no one can listen
My heart has songs to sing
But I am dumbed
I hear birds chirping
The Ocean waves roaring
LOVE transcends my blues
In every word I pen
In your melancholic memory
In every poem I recite
It's only " Y O U "


Like a dandelion seed

you have flown from my reach

When you used to be so near.

The night calls out to you

With siren delights

Guiding you

with illusions of bright shining lights.

Like Michaelangelo's barefooted baby Jesus

I see you run toward a future

Headed for potential disaster

And like the angels

I want to shadow you

To steer you away.

Yesterday seems far away

With sadness I see

Time

Has made you step away

From me.
its in the silence where a poet retreats
songs are formed,
plucked from the air so it can seem
struggle and suffering from their art
until a door opens and they sing once more.
Keeping up appearances,
Shutting the dark vibe down.
Keeping up appearances,
Putting on a crown.
Keeping up appearances,
Make a smile out of a frown.

Keeping up appearances,
But quietly you drown.
