Opened. Pried and beckoned Ripped from tranquility Forced into this reality Again.

Exposure
my life is a rollercoaster point blank period I always know what fearlessness is I always understand the rush of belief but sometimes I want everything to stop to exist in a pocket of time, to do whatever I like not be pushed and pulled hauled and trawled stalled and enthralled if I had a penny for every scream I would be able to relish in greed I am so envious, what would it be like not to live like this but this is me and I am incomplete without the rollercoaster so I guess I have to enjoy my sh*t

Where does the shore start and where does the ocean end? The waves that pushes you to shore are the same waters that pulls you deeper into the ocean. You're caught in the waters currents, struggling to stay afloat. The ocean with its deepness so vast, so tempting, so dark, so alone. The shore with its infinite sand so stark, so bright, so alluring, so plentiful. When you look towards the shore, where do you start and where do you end?

The Shore
I had a dream last night. You were next to me And I had to kiss you Just because you were too you. You kissed me back But then you pulled away “Wait,” You said, “Wait, I gotta tell you something.” You went on and on about some uncle Until you finnaly got to the point “I love you” and I kissed you and you kissed me And I pulled away To say “I love you too.” And then I woke up. My eyes flew open. My arms reaching for you. But you weren’t there. No. You never were.

Imagine
She reaches across the skies pulling to her plead flying in a minded eye of her wants, and needs If ever in the skies at dawn you see a shadow speed know that it's forever drawn ever seeking to exceed Fulfilling all her hopes and dreams magnetically following her lead soaring high above the jet stream seeking always, to succeed

Drawn and Pulled
My head travels. Was taken out of one, and put in another. No matter where I travel, it will follow. The constant dizziness, The constant spinning, The constant cycle.

Around
An invisible noose Was around my Neck When you told Me you didn’t Want me. You couldn’t tell How hard it Pulled on my Throat When you walked Away. I held onto The rope choking Me When I seen You everyday And had to Pretend nothing ever Existed between Us. The stool slipped From beneath my Feet When I watched You staring at her Until you got The courage to Ask her Out. I swung from The rope While I seen You place a Ring on her Finger.

The Invisible Noose
I love your eyes and the way you look into mine I love your voice and the words you use to make me smile I love your skin specially when it's against mine I love your lips and your kisses every time I love when you say that you love me more than I I love the feeling of your fingertips through my spine I love that with you I can be myself even though I'm shy With you everything feels like if I had met you in another life I love that you're tough some might say the strongest yet I've seen you cry I love it when you say that I'm yours and that I can call you mine I love that your name is always invading my mind I love when you call me beautiful even though I think you lie I love your hands and our fingers interwined I love that when I'm with you everything seems to be fine I love you and I will for the rest of time

Haze
She sleeps with her arms cradling her body, holding herself together as she lay. Afraid she will come apart while her eyes are closed. If you rip her open, a quilt of leftover pieces. Pieces placed and abandoned. Find a spot between the ribs where her heart used to be, patch in your lies and your empty words. Perhaps her frayed seams will finally split. Tugging at the binding of her forearm and hand, she digs for proof. She wishes to peel off every inch of skin sewn onto her bones, to create a new canvas free of rips and tattered edges.

Pulled Threads
Blindsided by near tragedy Bullied by unanswered questions Elation tempered with doubt Too frightened to be free Best attempts continue to fail Escaping to nothing Nothing in return Empty or just too full to feel Irreplaceable time Withering and wasted Searching beyond hope Looking for the good Holding on to rainbows Spontaneity dies slowly Restless minds swim too fast Shades of yellow in a fog No memory of yesterday Pulled back into now Unable to process more emotion Unstoppable floods Undeniable bonds Unwanted feelings Unconditional everything Emotional vampirism and parasitic tendencies Leave nothing behind Overwhelming need to help Bound by limits Pulled by love Torn apart slowly Unable to heal Unable to deal Left bone dry and used No one to blame No cycle to break Taking your sorrow Swallowing your pain Carrying your suffering away from you As you heal I disappear

Drowning In You
You my friend love to run more than anyone I know You run so fast your body has to catch up and when it can't it slows you down pulling a hamstring Then the other And then your left one again You had bruises for months trailing up and down your legs-your battle wounds Weeks upon weeks of stretching Icing massaging caring bracing eating Trying so hard to sooth the pain So bad it hurt to sit Slowly but surely your legs came back A tedious process of long nights and good mornings One day you were new again In the sweltering heat you taught your legs what it felt like to run And they loved it The months flew by chasing you down You were unstoppable getting first and second a states in the winter Things were looking up and you started to get anxious about college who would choose you? But in the end, you chose them You are an official member of OSU Proud to be a buckeye Outdoor season started and you are oh so careful Spending an hour every day before practice to warm up slowly to not repeat last year's trial Hours spent after practice to ice and stretch hoping that this horrendous day would ever come again Today I watched you I was sprinting on the field while you were meticulously counting and calculating your speed and steps by doing drills Our brothers strides by-racing each other in the 600 You strode along their side-beating them all when you started to limp Your eyes turned glossy Your face crumpled in despair I to you asking if you were ok You looked at me like a deer in headlights To scared to tell me-hoping that the devil couldn't possibly come back to haunt you Your eyes told me everything Two pops and a pull Bad Very bad But it's your right leg- your good leg Impossible The emotions hit you like you were on a bumpy roller coaster Frustration Angst Anger Sadness Frustration Anger What did you do wrong? What variables didn't add up? Why you? Why? I wanted so badly to comfort you To hug you But it would put you in so much pain Who knew that a hug could do so much harm? I helped you to the trainer Every step was another test and another reminder Why can something you love so much it hurts you? Why should someone so good feel the pain of a pulled muscle? Why?
