Tea for Me
Taylor Oct 2021
Tea for me to start the day
One that I cannot explain.
Roaring churning 4am can't sleep
Tea for me to start the day

Reflect
Taylor Feb 2021
Looking through ourselves
Not to ourselves
When all we needed was within.

Little Pieces
Taylor Nov 2020
I was thinking small.
Where rubber meets the road,
Leaving little pieces of ourselves
Everywhere we go.
We are slowly decaying rejuvenated with life until it runs out.

World on Pause
Taylor Apr 2020
Skip the street
Remember me
At home
In a zone
I wanted to be
I finally have the time
To do the things I wanted
And just don't .

Recycled Tears
Taylor Mar 2020
Drip drop
Pitter patter
The rain falls
As I grow sadder

Collecting into puddles
Draining to rivers
Pouring into the ocean

Drip drop
Pitter patter

Encumbered
Taylor Feb 2019
Shade is but a shadow
With an expiration
Dancing with time
Until the night

Speak
Taylor Feb 2019
To speak your truth
or hold your tongue,
tomorrow's sun
rises with burden,
but the moon
Always holds it's glow.

My rain song
Taylor Feb 2019
Where has it gone?
The song I sang
To clear the rain
And start anew.

It was right here
At the start of the year
Clasped to my hands
Like a tight grip
That wouldn't let go,
But it did.
Until next year.

Taylor Oct 2017
Held in great honor
I wed my beautiful bride.

My muse,
My inspiration.

What is next to come
Feelings of great aspiration.

With great passion
And flowing love

I commit myself to you,
Forever.

You don't care
Taylor Aug 2017
It's too late
Fate sealed
The polished gate
Excluding those
That wished
They cared
Hiding fate
Always
There
Giving up always takes away an opportunity, but it also presents us with new ones.  Things don't always go as you plan them, and if they do you might be in a simulation.

How to Hangover
Taylor Aug 2017
I fell into a table again.  At least
that's what I assumed as I shook
off the confusion of whether or
not I was still drunk, I was.
  Putting together several
forgotten hours of your life is
never a fun or easy task.
Retracing steps with brief
glimpses at the drunken state of
self that can only be laughed or
shrugged off.  The first step to
any good hangover is to catch
your bearings.  Who, what,
when, and where slowly come
back as you find out the
quickest way to put water into
your body.

  You might be thinking by now
"never again".

Sound good when you think out loud
Everyone agrees
Wouldn't you say so?

This is your last one
Taylor Apr 2017
When I'd given up
You were always right behind me
You showered me with love and never given up
Sad to see you wither

We all have inappropriate thoughts, and eventually succumb to them in some way or another.

Group Think
Taylor Sep 2016
Troubled mind
My conscious disease
What ales you?

Words pass through
Riding the wind
As an airborne virus spreads
Entering the masses
Giving collective thought
As we think we've done it!

Fret not

Vast
Taylor Sep 2016
Where did you go? And who are you now?
When I stare in the mirror, it seems upside down.
Am I someone that settled or someone that took? Advantage always seems out of reach. Why do we think, "it won't happen to me".
Are the stars we aim for so far away?
That we can't simply ask them to align
Where did you go? And who are you now?

Fireworks Display
Taylor Jul 2016
We drove for hours
For what you thought
Would be
A simple display
Lights and sounds
A bustling crowd
But never expected
A ring.

The summer breeze
Cooled nervous palms
As my body pumped blood
Marching and matching the
Burst of explosions
Happening inside
While playing off a smile.

Trembling through a short time
A long period only felt
When one is unconscious
I found the perfect time to
Distract starry eyes
And turn them to tears.

You said yes.
Right there we held on
Through a flowing sea
Nothing mattered
But you and me.

When BB comes Back
Taylor May 2016
The air is somehow easier to breath.
Scents enhance, entire rooms filled!
Bouncing off vibarant colors,
That were never there before.
Only after she arrived,
Somber sounds rang clear.
Like wind carries the clouds.

Next Song
Taylor Apr 2016
Needle off the groove
                                                                ­                       Always on Repeat             Playing not music                                                                            ­      
But distracting little beats.

Requiem
Taylor Mar 2016
I lost my way
When I lost you
Beaten broken
Black and blue.

Bring me back
Feet between
Wake me wake me
From my dream.

Poetic Mess
Taylor Mar 2016
Hello again
My poetry friends.
Relapsed and
So I've grabbed
My pen

To share with you
The words and rhymes
Spilt,
Ever so delicately.  
Please don't mind

~Taylor
