Running away-
I don't worry which way is wrong
or which way is right.
I just want to escape.
I just want to run away and leave my problems elsewhere...

Today, I was sick.
The doctor said there was nothing wrong,
yet returning to the pavilion lake,
rains accompany my wakes.
A swelling sensation stuffed my chest,
I can't help but lay down and closed my eyes.

mouth opens
but no words
just breath
what to say
you wait
text a friend
i do the same
is it worth it
or am i stupid
what will you say
a response i fear
i know you'll say
what i want to hear
why even ask
close mouth
rethink
you wait
i've been here
in this cycle
waiting
thinking
receiving
nothing
but stares
and blame
my question
is just me
being insane

The road is like the sea
If you don’t have a corse set
Who knows where you’ll be
That’s why I fret
For one day you’ll want to see
Then you’ll forget
And we will never be
So is it sand that our names are set
Or is our story in the stars for all to see?
Paper Heart Poet May 2020
Little heart beats
Constant hammer
In construction
Sonogram panic

I sought silence in noise,
sought darkness in light.
Sought love in medication,
sought pleasure in frustration,
forged personalities that were fake,
hoped for miracles on birthday cakes.
Attempted to see without looking,
listen without hearing,
speak without talking,
bagging to explore,
but tied down by worry.
A poem I made on 25th April 2016 that was almost forgotten until this day.

Can you hear it?
Cup your hands, listen.
Isn't it beautiful?
Wait... you can't hear it?
Here, close your eyes.
Concentrate on nothing.
Let your mind go blank.
Take a deep breathe.
Let all of your worries go.
Now do you hear it?
Do you hear the silence?
Good, remember this sound.

Remember it when you get overwhelmed.
Remember it when you feel alone.
Remember it when you feel out of control.
Remember it to set you free from your mind.
Shhh. Be silent and be free.
