And in this moment
I am infinite.
So you’d think I’d
Bend because
We were intimate?
I was curious to find
Your intent.
What could you gain
From my attention?
There are galaxies
And eons growing inside
Of me.
A darkness
With emoceans
Deeper than the seven seas.
I’m cutting my chains.
Far from you.
I’m setting myself free.
let go of your demons
but embrace them as they leave.
life goes through seasons,
this is simply the colour changing of
the leaves.
you've never loved if you've yet to
wish upon a star.
forget your pride,
give her the sun, moon, stars,
and your all.
sometimes you have to accept
that you just can't sleep
as the memories begin to creep
and trickle into your heart
reminding you of company
you still long to keep
Honestly?
I just want to hold your hand
As we drift into sleep.
I want your face to be
The first thing I see
As we wake in the morning.
I want to see you at
Your best and your worst
I want to spend all
Of my time
With you.
And I want that to be something
That you want too.
I want you in a way
That probably isn’t
Completely fair.
I want you to lay your
Head on my chest
As I run my fingers
through your hair.
I want it to be us,
And
The world out there.
Outside my window
There’s nothing for us.
Even though you won’t see it,
Your smile makes me blush.
I want you in a way,
I know I can’t have.
Because, ultimately,
I’ve realised,
It’s your love I can’t have.
Because in all actuality,
You’d never want me
This bad.
“It’s cool.”
I say,
Under my breath.
“No big deal.”
I mutter, though no one is left.
But in reality,
What if I built you up,
To an expectation
To which you couldn’t live up?
I reckon that’s not fair
To you.
So in all actuality,
“It’s no big deal.”
I just gotta get over you.
I write the words
That I’m too afraid
To say.
Knowing full well
That you’ll read
Them someday.
