I
I may not be able to save the world
But I can save a breath to make my heart try harder to give me life
I may not feel beautiful
But I can feel the attraction and repulsion of everything I try to make sense of.


I may not be brave enough to risk it all
But I am in control.
Yes please.

You lied
and said
you were the Sun

How foolish I was
to keep you
in my Sky

Running when you shouldn't be,
racing for the exits.
Jumping for the nearest window,
though every part of you says it:
Don't even try it.
You won't make the leap.
The glass is only touched by a finger- tip.
You're walking a tightrope and the ***** is steep.
Risk- taking is good. In some situations.

Our Hearts
stare
at one another

With wishes
So easily granted
Druzzayne Rika Apr 2018
When will my soul take the call
do what I don't
do how I feel
for those few powerful seconds.

tempted to it
really want it
simply difficult
to follow through
enough, enough.

so slow
the heart beats,
so slow
my mind works.
There is risk,
I know.
I am so,
so hopeless.
Follow my journey
to get bored.

I am really confused this time around
Why did your love take so long?
Was it because I was weak?
Did I think I was strong?

Maybe I was blind at that point
Now I sure do see
I cannot believe that with you
I ever disagree

I fell from my frail pedastal
Flailing hard, far down
You picked me up
From where I lay on the ground

The crash happened fast
I did not know I had been hit
Until your hand made me realize
Now I will never quit

Should I tell you
My feelings have grown?
More than I say
More than I have shown

You uttered the words first
But now i am unsure
Love is a beautiful disease
For which there is no cure

I think I will take a risk
I want one chance
I need to inform you
That I have changed my stance

If we start over I will
Care deeper than before
Give our love one last shot
Do not walk out the door
An oldie. I didnt even know what love was back then, and to think i wanted that more than anything, that was before i had experienced the pain of a broken heart.

Love doesnt hurt
Hurt are those who have
Never taken the risk to love

I just cried.. again..
Seems like it never ends.
I thought I was okay,
But my mind could debate.

Every moment
I feel so broken,
My devotion,
Misfortune emotion.

Every moment
My feelings closest,
Roaming,
Zoning..
Uncondoning.

I'll always stay wishing,
I'll think about all the chances I'm missing,
The factors I'm risking.
The stories I'm twisting,
And the life I'm not living.
