One of the greatest feelings I have ever experienced
was the feeling of invisibility
I sat on the floor in front of the auditorium  
waiting for the class before me to be let out
just reading a book and listening to music
A few minutes passed
The class was released from their professors grip for then night
a swarm of kids left the room
I stayed on the floor reading
not being noticed
Alone
I watched from over the peripheral of my book at all the legs passing by  
No one noticed me
No one tripped over me
I was ignored  
I felt like I had stopped time
I felt like I'd mastered the art
of being invisible

I want to feel stellar
I crave the feeling
of your skin
when I feel my worst
your fingers tracing
the profile of my hand
will make my grayest days

*vibrant

to love is one thing*

---

to be in love is another

Often times when I need them most
my words will runaway.
Confounding me, leaving my mind to coast
while I can't find anything to say.
I have all these ideas I would like to boast
but in my mind, they won’t convey.

****.

My heart is a rodeo
and when I draw my last breath
I will finally win
my gold buckle.

I look at your countenance
so close to my face
and it takes every ounce
of self control
to not discover*
*what you taste like
