we
we trapped in these four walls
in the moment of eye-rolls

we trapped in each others' skin
wondering what other place could we've been

we forged into one vessel
seems like we were in a carousel

we love like a little kid
that always want a bid

yes, i'm falling for him but
you're still tugging at my mind,
reminding me to
cry a little harder for you.
i'm left wondering who
your blue eyes are piercing now,
who are you saying "i love you" to,
promising forever?
i'm sure she'll trust you,
sure she'll start writing poetry about your eyes
cause god have you ever seen something so blue?
i wonder if you'll break her

like you did me.

her
i deny the urge to kiss the lips i once kissed
to say the words i always said
i yearn for her love
her touch
her
yet...
i ******* up
i ******* everything up
she still loves me, or so she says
but i'm not with her
i'm with her best friend
whom i like a lot
but...
i love h e r

It’s been a while since I tried to write a poem.
It’s been a while since I’ve tried to make sense of the Spirographs that are my thoughts.
Sometimes I try and follow the line as it weaves it ways through the dark circles.
But sometimes
I can’t,
Sometimes I end up in the kitchen taking a whole bottle of pills,
Sometimes I end up in the hospital drinking bottles of charcoal,
You see everyday April 5th replays in my mind.

i can't help but smile
and hope
and dream
and long for what could be
why does it take me .02 seconds to catch feelings

Just a few pleasant words
can make someone's day.
A compliment or smile
can impact in so many ways.

Take some time today
and throughout this week
to make someone's day
and to be kind and meek.

were playing the game of life
we try to play by the rules
then someone pulls out a knife
knife then a gun
life then no life
why make rules
