This isn’t for you
Affectionately aimed at my own  
This isn't for you
This is for the times I let myself fall into the deep

This isn't for you
This is for the thoughts that I dealt with
This isn’t for you
This is for the loss of souls

This isn’t for you
This is for the intentions I’ve let down
This isn’t for you
This is for my tired soul


This isn’t for you

This is for me not to lose myself
Reservate this living

The selfish part of me wants to exist—
For me
Dear Me
Norman Crane Apr 2021
someone once said,
a negative mind will never give you a positive life,
but that is itself a negative thought,
which must be the product of a negative mind,
if it is true, it's false,
and if it is false, it's true,
but what identifies a princess is not a tiara but a shoe,
or, positively said,
a negative mind will give you a positive life,
for to live uncritically
is indistinguishable from being dead

A poem is a story itself
it's just ambiguous

Keep eyes trained on what you want

On dreams
Not nightmares
"They told us dreams can come true but neglected to tell us that nightmares are dreams too"

i sent you a playlist, of music that i love.
because it's hard to tell you how i feel;
i doubt you listened to it though.
it's as if you've ignored my feelings.
I will walk miles to meet you
If I know you’re walking too
towards me.

Let’s meet half way!!
Only then any kind of relationship will work.
The mind
Always wandering
Eyes always searching
The heart always wondering
Who to let in.

When you experienced bad things with people you once trusted you change,
Trust can be difficult sometimes .

There are many secrets
out there
Hidden
The  world is
your treasure box
Go and find
your jewels.

Despite everything the world is a beautiful place. Just look around.
He created everything beautiful!!
Try to be happy and grateful.
It doesn’t cost anything to look and enjoy all the beautiful things that are out there

found my body last night
the first time in months
after getting a covid test
and watching Eat, Pray, Love

unrolled my yoga mat
lit a candle
painted white my
unfinished canvas
made anew against all things fear

then slept and dreamt
of Hawaii

all in one breath
“Free your mind and your *** will follow” -George Clinton
An easygoing quote I've had in mind as of late
