Q
Outliers, nomads, vagabonds of sorts
We have many names, us unsettled at heart
One city, one place will never be enough
We travel, not to find ourselves, but to discover higher truths
We travel to meet people like you

Without said journeys, blank pages fill your soul
You whither and dry and just plain crumble
Colors haven't touched your eyes,
Wonders, your mind
Read all the pages you can possibly come by

I, for one, can say this is truly true
I've found wonder and intrigue,
But I'll always be most interested in traveling with you

                                    *s.q.
Between a baby's first word
And a deathbed confession
There are plenty of times
For God to say,
“I told you so.”
I cry oceans full
Do you care?
I die thousand times
For that glare
Thoughts are broken
Lost that flair
Shattered into shards
Can you repair?
Cloudy monster
Played on mind
Needed an angel
To unwind
Since angels
Are rare to find
Did it all by myself
Unfolded the blind!
Sadness came to me tonight
I said, nope, I'm not ready yet
So I put that sadness in a box
and that box under my bed.

Anger came to visit me next
I said, I'm definitely not ready for you
So I stuffed that anger in a bag
and it went under too.

I thought I was safe for the night
and then in came impending Doom
This one was a little bit stronger
so I had to lock it in it's own room.

So when I saw Pain walking up the street
I knew it was coming for me
I said, I guess it's time to accept defeat
So one by one, I set them all free.

I cried with Sadness
I screamed with Anger
I mourned with Doom
I whined with Pain

And then Happiness came
and I watched the others disappear.
We shared a happy life together
when I finally stopped living with Fear.

Thanks for showing me the mirror
Where it is written a-loof
But I am just emotional not a-fool

Breeze whispered into my ears passing by
Come on! I will take your feelings to a flight
Where scenery is lush green, hearts are white
I said, bring along some rain to make it a memory
It said, OK, you want both why, tell me the story
I said, with someone in rain, I want to walk free
As I wish to amass fortune of memories............
All of us are going around
trying to speak with a foreign language
attempting to connect

our minds
our souls

but maybe it takes more than
just words to connect
maybe it takes
strength
freedom
might

saying words like promise or vow to
doesn't really make us connect

it's all language barriers for our souls

our generation
needs more than just that
we need to care

we need to ask about each
others days because that
only shows how much
our souls really want to
understand each other

or
we could just kiss
You think your life is going well,
when before you know it,
everything flashes before your eyes.
We are humans. We make mistakes.
Being a teenager, I've realized I've made a lot.
Time to change my ways.
For myself.
I have learned from my mistake, & I feel like not everyone does.
No one sees I'm trying to be a better... me.
