A starry sky,
borrowed from someone else's heart,
from their happiest moments.
A memory of the universe,
given to another with an excited voice,
hyper and exhilarated,
describing it with sparking eyes.
Fluffy clouds
seen laying on soft,
sweet smelling grass, cuddling and smiling
with so many others.
The sun's warmth a reminder of their own,
kind and soft.
A clear night
catching fireflies with them at three a.m.
Of course letting the bugs free,
just feeling the pure delight in the accomplishment
as one always does.
Standing with eyes closed
enjoying the breeze and the company
of pretty souls so nearby.
Yellow sunflowers,
given from their love.
Bright and shining,
a mirror of their feelings,
their happiness and friendship.
A quiet café,
sitting by a foggy window drinking tea.
Enjoying the serenity of a peaceful moment,
something that doesn't happen often
in between all the chaos that is life.
The calming scent of mint and chamomille
drooping their eyelids
and forming soft smiles all around.
to my friends. i love you all in one way or another, no matter how unconventionally (ahem one of you in particular but hey). i miss you horribly and i'm feeling nostalgic af. based on my happiest memories with you guys (some without you but the happiness reminds me of you guys)

fun
a little liquid courage
and foreign places
i dabbled in the art
of being flirtatious
slip on my sun dress
and smile wide
friendly introductions
and darting eyes
this feels like a game
and i'm a tease
but at the end of the night
let's have fun, won't you please

For those who I've got to know.
The ones I've shown that I can grow,
and change.
Thank you for the fun, sadness, and everything in between.
You are all in memories and help make me...


Me
This is for everyone in real life, and everyone on this site who has ever liked or loved my poems, thank you guys! I can't believe people like to read my stuff, and it just makes me happy knowing you people care.

When the lights dim and the music gets loud
I search for your face that I lost in the crowd
I sway back and fourth to the sound of the beat
My hips constant motion matches the rhythm of my feet
And I survey the dance floor looking for a suitor
But I know you’ll dance with me no matter what and not her
The music penetrates my soul and mind
You’re the only body I want to find
Pull me close and never let me go
Take me out to every late show
And I’ll dance with you from the night till the dawn
And we’ll never have a dull moment or the faintest yawn
We’ll party like it’s 1983
And at the fading of the music I’ll get to take you home with me
And if I’m lucky you’ll spend the night
We’ll wake up together from the sunbeams of light
And we’ll do it all over again
When we can
Because honey your body pressed up again mine
Is nothing short of blissful, divine
And feeling your heat radiate through me
Is better than a sedative or a tranquilizer at subduing me
I call your name in my head in the club
In anticipation of seeing you my thoughts blow up
And I can’t wait till our eyes meet once more
I knew I wanted you the moment you walked through that door
Dance with me under the moon and the sun
Come on baby, the night is still young

smoking a cigarette
I stepped a bit too confidently
in front of a speeding car

OM
We are all
In shapes of
Musical notes

Each a different pitch,
Played at an
unique level
And tone

Vibrating all together
in the distance
OM

Happy! Is it really you?
Or is it simply everything's turning new??
Are you still living in that very fear?
Do you still question, "Do I really belong here?"
Till now everything seems too good!
Or are your thoughts just getting ****??
Sometimes as you feel so out of place
Have you ever missed seen that one gaze??
Does that make you feel comfortable?
Or are you still hiding underneath that invisible table??
Sometimes do you take up a long way to go?
Or you simply chose to go with the flow??
Well! Let yourself be relaxed before you join the crowd!
Don't you react and be that proud!!
Have a little faith and keep moving ahead
Let your happiness be the only butter and bread!!

Pick any ride you like
Do you want to go to the one in the distance?
Or this overly colored one...look it’s so bright!
The other one’s too far away...look the bright one’s now turquoise.
*
Oh look there’s a black rollecoaster... but it seems so broken down
I guess it was cool before but now it’s all rusty
Maybe we should go to that fast food shack all our friends are around
*

Oh no it’s raining all the neon lights are going off!
The buildings and rides  are falling apart!
Except for that black rollercoaster’s ticket shack
run there it’s safer
Why aren’t there any tickets...why is it full of alcoholic liquor?
Lighting strikes again and the floor pulls us in
I guess we will be part of this attraction when nobody will come tomorrow morning.
*i tried comparing my feelings to an amusement park I guess it didn’t work but eh....*

In the morning I woke up
To warm my bones
A chair welcomed me
to my roof top patio
I stretched my arms to the sun
It filled me up- It filled me up
Till I was full
And the cars, the planes and the trains
all buzzed by

At about noon I made my lunch
It was good
Took a few bites
Gave the rest to the dogs in the neighborhood
It fell from the sky
so they praised at the top of their lungs
It filled them up- It filled them up
till they were full
And the bugs, the birds, and various cats
all passed by

Later that night
I layed down my head
my eyelids were heavy
before they caved in
I drifted softly back to sleep
it filled me up- it filled me up
till I was full
and the stars, the trees, and the cool night breeze
came to me
they came to me, in my dreams
