Pause

When you are silent
If the story ends

If it is like that
That is not your story
My dear

You don't belong there

Genre: Observational
Theme: Turbulence
Author's Note: Sometimes you wait to see if your story is being heard, and sometimes you stay silent to decide, do you need to continue the story.

Pause

Eines Nachts im Sommer
funkelten die Sterne am Himmel,
und eine kühle Brise zerstreute die Hitze des Tages

und die Erde war still.

ellipsis

the tired eyes
and sluggish hands
in a late night rendezvous
that starts with a touch
that explodes in your chest
the fire at your fingertips
that splatter all throughout
and it's the sparks in your lungs
the brightness against a groggy gaze
which fills the spaces between your words
the ellipses between your sentences
the pauses between each breath you take
every hesitation
and never seems to end.

If Only the World Would Pause

If only the world would pause for a moment--
Then how quiet it would be!
Only the birds and the wind and the sky,
And also there'd be you and I.
Once the world moved slowly,
But now were going faster than even the wind can fly.

5 centimetres per second

Cold night breeze.
Serene evening sky.
Dancing city lights.
Walking side by side.
Fingers intertwined.
Memory lane on our path.
People passed us by.
A couple they may think,
but it's our way of bidding the real goodbye...

How To Smile

I am sorry that I am a hopeless mess
Waste of space
Broken at best
Words my comfort when taken by fear
Times I can't face who's waiting in the mirror
I want pain to end so I can be free
The overwhelming misery
I try to pause
Breathe deep and slow
Anxiety will not let me go
And I want to change
Be happy once more
I'll never get back the life I had before
Just make the world disappear for awhile
Then maybe I'd remember how to smile

It's been so long I think I've forgotten how it feels to laugh
