love today looks like morning. the sun rises and so do i. rising to breathe and let go, let go enough to give back to her, let go enough to give back him. making peace with being enough for me in this present moment, but not being what you wanted. i am not what you want and that is okay. i wish you'd hold onto that instead of repeatedly dropping my heart or letting it come apart in your hands.
The past is an opaque glass something I can see but never get through the longer I look the less I see but no matter when I look I find you
this universe is centered around my feet revolving creating dust from stone nothing I see is from your eyes and knowing I never will, hits cold bone
my feet only run as fast as my legs but my stamina controls them too A thick fog inside my ill and blinding mind I breathe in smoke hoping to make it though
