Regretfully crawling out of a warm blanket to meet a snow covered field.
My cheeks absorb the cold as it seeps through the window.
Begging for no attention, living for nothing but my gaze, a lonely fire grows out of a healthy little pile of embers, nuzzled away in the snow.
The growing stillness over the untouched field reaches through my window and meets me with embrace.
You are the captivating landscape that suspends me in time.
You are the fire that dances only for me.

I think I'm losing you, but I will never regret choosing you
Because I am in love, and for now that will be enough
And the ones around me convince me that I was the only person who was dumb enough to believe that you and I had hope.
But now I know even after you began to let your emotions slow the only reason I stood alone was because I was the only one who knew our love was never going to let go.
Everyone wanted me to see that we could not thrive, so gouge out my eyes.
Because if this is reality then I guess I'm not alive,
Because I don't know a life in where I can't make things right.
And when life teaches you to drive and you finally say goodbye
And you won't let me stand by your side
Ill know that though some feelings are hurt, none will have died.
Cause I used to stay up at night and picture myself looking into your eyes
Shouting as you would sigh “how dare you think you can fall asleep with water dripping from the kitchen sink, how dare you think you can fall asleep with all these little leaks in this home we built in our dreams”
A picture is worth a thousand words or whatever people say to me.
It's hard to believe when your mind is lost and in need,
And all you can picture is a memory inside of someone else's sheets.
A prayer that nothing will keep,
A hope that light will seek before the dark sinks too deep.
Or at least the sinking feeling inside of me will decrease when the release of perceived dreams burn in the flame of feeling free.
So feel free to be free if that's what you need.
And if someday you feel alone and everything caves in when you try to breathe,
Know that you are not alone as far as I can see,
Because you were everything to me.
Through this I have realized that if I were God we would have all just died,
Because darling you were mine and now I feel so dead inside,
And what good am I if all I can create is a projection of my own mind.
A dream of finding time to remind you that I'm still here and I'm not fine.
And darling if you're going to leave just remember who you are,
And do what you can to remember me.
Maybe someday we can talk about our past and we can talk about the weather.
Whenever you leave I don't care what I'm remembered for,
I just want to be remembered.
Because even if I failed you at least I tried,
And maybe our lives don't add up now but someday our graves will look the same when we both die.
And if I had a chance I'd give you one last kiss and I'd bite down on your lip
And I'd try to puncture it so you'll never forget that time,
But you'll always regret.
And darling I know sometimes life will take a turn for the worst,
And sometimes life will even hurt.
And I know some days, some days you'll be afraid of the lessons you'll have to learn
And some days you'll even feel burned,
And I want to let you know that I want to love you through them.
But I always get what I deserve.

She carefully creased the corners,
Bookmarking her favorite parts.
Because the words on those pages
Seemed to touch her heart.

Children of the Moon!
Abandon your worn shoes
And frolic freely, barefoot
In Her midnight light;
Let down your lovely locks
And bare your ashen skin
To allow Her celestial lips
Kiss your collar bones;
Let Her blanket of shadows
Drape over your shoulders,
While She crowns you with
A headdress of night diamonds.

We are all ballerinas
Tying our broken, battered toes
Into pretty, pink satin slippers

Her poem
"Take Me Home"
Meant so much to me
How I have often wondered
Why my life is
The way it is
As I wander the streets of my city
I am a lover of the light
Whether it be daylight
Or moonlight
I would walk a 1,000 miles
Just to see a glimpse
Of her smile
To be honest Nicole
You are incredibly beautiful
I hope you find someone
Worthy of you
Someone to treasure you
I would gladly be your scribe
Recording your words
Of wisdom
On parchment if I could
Nicole
You are a true Goddess
In every sense of the word
I bow down before you
The most beautiful women
Of the ages
Cannot compare
To your radiance
Truly, A Goddess
In every sense of the word
Thank you
For your beautiful poetry
