New Lease
 Feb 2016 SJ

As we stood face to face...
Waist-deep in our insecurities,
the years...
Would continue to
revolve around us with nonchalance.
Soothing the wounds we had traded.

The universe...
Would envelope us.
Like cosmic balm.
Healing us...
Catalysing us,
into melding together.
So we'd emerge out of the fray
as a single entity.

An entity...
Oblivious to each other's imperfections.
An entity...
Capable of discarding past discrepancies.
An entity...
Granted a new lease.
An entity...
Worthy of another breath.

I guess I won
I guess I won all the fights
I guess I won those nights
the ones that made us smile and laugh

All the fights
till sometimes 3am
That made me cry till no end
I guess you won all of those
The ones that made me explode

Now I see you with someone new
Winning all those fights too

She's smiling and laughing like I use to
But I can see in her the pain that you gave me too

But I see a change you too
The anger is almost gone
But replaced with something more

More people will get hurt as time goes on
There's nothing we can do
Besides hope that we don't get hurt even more too
Please tell me IF it's any good

Darla

PaperclipPoems
The innocence that remains inside of me
Darla, is what her name shall be
Running through the forest as if she were free
Wearing an old fashioned white dress with scrapes on her knees
The lightest shade of blonde hair that you ever did see
Dirt on her hands while her seat for supper remains empty

Darla, oh Darla, where might you be...
Chasing the butterflies and buzzing with the bees
Napping in the meadow is where you may find thee
Dreaming of Darla, she and I are dancing
Away with each other, where I wish I could be her and she wishes she were me.
