Let
I let myself drown in you
I let myself go
I let my emotion take precedence
let nonsense take over
I have no one else to blame
Only I can control
Self
But I can't help myself
You are all I wanted
And the saddest thing
Is the more you refrain
The less I want to give
The farther apart we swim
Until we cannot find each other any longer
I cannot let you
Take me over

honey catches more bees than vinegar ever will
Hahaha who the heck wants to catch something that stings?
No I'll keep my honey, honey,
I'll feed it to the mama bears  they know what it's like to be stung

I love being alone
For as long as I can remember
Alone is my comfort zone
I get lost in myself
No worries
no one else to care about
Not lonesome, never lost
That only happens when
I find myself
Trying to get lost
In someone else
My mind becomes enthralled
It is almost like poison
Seeping through my veins
Nothing but confusion
Inside my brain
I cannot understand why
Why did he say what he said yesterday?
Why isn't he interested today,
He was so into me
Wasn't he?
Wait a second, step back,
Re-evaluate
This isn't true love, why am I stuck in debate?
I cannot convince anyone of who I am
This is not the end
It must have been
a ploy  for revenge
From a bitter soul
who obviously has
no idea who I am

A walk down my memory lane
might just make you dizzy
trip over boulders
in my obstacle course
A walk down my memory lane
might make you wail
not just cry
Might make you wonder why
life is so intentionally cruel
and why so many lives
fall through cracks in boardwalks and get lost in sand
endlessly twisting in hourglass
canisters sitting on tables staring at happiness
they can not claim

Tonight I felt lost
Deep in thoughts
The angry world trying to start up a storm with innocence
Why do they love to
Cause uproars
Meddle and pick and pry
Love is not that easy
Love does not happen overnight
Love is tucked away
In a safer place
Sheilded from wicked ways
ruthless minds
Who play with truth
& shout out lies

Sweet sounds of silence
Sounds like a dream
Makes me feel like napping
a deep peaceful sleep
From which never to awaken
Or maybe instead
An awakening
better than in a dream
Unimaginable perfection
It's what I want to be
So as not to be less than
what you need

"If wishes were horses everyone would ride"*
If God were mediator privacy
Would reside in crevices
Deep within
Where only 2 could share
Understanding
