and
just like
   tree buds
    in the
  spring,
i have been
     granted
  a season
     to grow

Winter springs
into summer,
Quick
as the setting sun.
Summer falls
into winter
Slowly,
and then all at once.

Schedules, deadlines,
Lists, and plans;
We work best
Under demands.

All or nothing,
No mistakes,
Reputation
Is at stake.

If it’s wrong,
Make it right,
We see things
In black and white.

Inner critic
In our ear,
Correcting us
So loud and clear.

Perfection is
Just out of reach,
We always practice
What we preach.

Organizing
Just for fun,
That’s what it’s like
To be a One!
This is based on the Enneagram personality type test.

It’s going to **** me.
It’s going to cut me up into neat little fractions until I am no more,
It’s going to spread through my body like a disease, filling up every compartment of my being,
It’s going to take root in the pits of my belly like a green leafed plant ,and I’m going to water it with my tears until it grows too big to be contained.
And then it’s going to smother me.
And then it’s going to **** me.

My dearest Prince Charming, am I being stood up?
It's starting to look like you'll never show up.

There's thoughts in my head that are hard to ignore;
Like you showing up to another front door.

Maybe you're hurt, bleeding out on the ground,
Or worse - you've decided to just turn around.

Your horse will not ride, it's dying of hunger,
Or maybe you've met someone else that is younger.

I wish you would send me your current location,
I'd order a faster mode of transportation.

And if you're asleep in the shades of a tree,
I hope that you're dreaming a sweet dream of me.

Keep moving, dear prince, clear the path with your sword,
At the end of this journey will be a reward.

It will be you and me, together at last,
And it can happen soon, if you ride very fast.

But no matter how long your painful endeavor
I pray that you get here, better late than never.
