Reality simplified

Like a brand new toy
All is fair in love and war
Loosely holding hands

In-sane

Have you seen my sanity?
While my head is spinning
Can it be
I see
The things nobody else can?

Jorge L Echevarria Dec 2014

Thoughts lost in translation

When I look at you my hearts turns to air
Compress my chest while I play with your hair
Let those eyes be your voice and my hands will lead the way
Will you play this game of charades through the night?
Oxygen lacking I need to hold you tight
Swapping tongues to fill each others lungs
A sensual dance where we can never be wrong
Background noises from ourselves create a song
Compassion and love with a hint of sin
Intertwining hands, limbs and more
Pretending our hearts were aching and this is our chance
Mend it like no other you know the dance
Shuffling feet mesmeric trance
As if we already knew where to go

Fake Knees

Mood Walkin'

I have good news!
I held down some food,
made amends with two wise books,
I fell asleep ****.
Today was filled with good news!
Tomorrow
I will fix my glasses,
wash the dishes;
cleaned my carpet.
Today was filled with "middle-of-the-road" news.
Staring contests with my ceiling,
I am ******* dejected from feeling
nightmares as my reality.
Where is the good news that ghosts
do not exist
but in the corners of the mind?
How I dread these long nights
of impersonating one who is healthy
because I showered
standing up
when I want to sit down.
Tonight was filled with questions without
answer.
By morning
it's good news that I pulled myself together.
I ate breakfast and I'm feeling
much better.
Now I can spend all day in the rain.
Today was filled with bright blues.
But wait!
Because I have more good news!
I am learning how to see clearly in the dark!
(I think.)
Oh it's just wonderful news
to know The Moon
and how to keep your wolves
at bay.
Today was just like every other day.

i thought i was over it until i was under you

you cant just avoid me and use me for your own pleasure
then tell me you miss me knowing id extend to desperate measures
just to make you mine again and bring us back to january
when i was your sanctuary
but now the image of us is nothing but imaginary

Not Patty

It's what i've always wanted.

I measured the miles with the love that I had given to you as my heart traveled mindlessly across the thin telephone wire and countless text messages.
I lost sleep over the thought of being able to touch you one day.
I lose sleep over imagining the feel of your breath across my neck as you held me like I was the only **** thing that mattered to you .
I see you in the midnight stars and in the empty crosswalks and in the scrambled words that litter abandoned buildings
the words are a mess just like my thoughts are whenever I talk to you.
I hear your voice in the back of my head constantly repeating the words i love you
it's like a ******* record that is scratched and it won't stop no matter how many times I try to turn it off.
I heard your laugh ring through my ears until I couldn’t take it anymore.

I'm sorry for taking so long, it was the traffic.
so keep waiting for me—keep waiting, alright?
i’m not far off. I’m only a half hour away from your heart.

No rehabilitation center for this one

10 years of finger nail biting
5 years spent hating myself
4 years of self harming
2 years waiting for you to come back
1 and a half years of cigarette smoking

I'll never overcome the worst addiction of all of them

Could you guess what one?
