Life as I know it

Dear Internet, I have chosen to share with you my random thoughts,poetry and other fun brain waves....

Homesick

Days turn into months
Life becomes me
You came out of nowhere
From someplace I’ve never been
All at once I’m not homesick
When I’m with you

I’m awakened
I start my self anew
In a new world
with a new mind
carrying my old and battered heart
still beating
ever stronger

Words fail me

Reality

My dose of reality
Comes so swiftly and expectantly
When I feel like I start to lose my head
I end up losing you
my heart instead

Clouds

The clouds roll by
Right through me
I feel still
And all of a sudden chill

What day is this
It is new
As the morning has its dew

You’re always dear
Dear moon
Stop forever my mood
For I am new
And my heart is
Just for you

Natural

The moon in my window

Stars disappear

Your eyes ever clear

I don’t need the moon

when I have you

Waters edge and I start

To feel and to feel my heart

I don’t need the breeze

When I feel you

Your way

You may be lost
but all is not lost

We go through this life with our hands and our heads
Mostly our hearts
Take a beating
Hands bleeding
Head in a  spin

We feel all things in time
We need our time
to be alone
to feel alone
think for yourself

Find that thing that brings you joy
hold onto it and enjoy it while it lasts
because everything in life is fleeting
Our hearts must keep loving
even when our heads say it hurts us so

you never know

(via demiilauren)

Summer

The sun scorches down to the core
My core is found and flooded with your life
Burnt to a crisp on the wings of a fever-ridden sky

Then all at once the rain poured
It fell on my face like a kiss that you never forget
A kiss that seems like forever since it existed
Or never had before

I’m glad it took you so long dear rain
If only for the reason that I appreciate you ever more
More than before

I cradle your wetness in the pores of my skin
and curse the wind for drying you away

Don’t forget me when you go
I will never be the same
I will keep your imprint like that first kiss
Your kisses on my heart
Filled with the rain that pours from my face

Anymore

Did you hear me laugh out loud

Did you take to heart my soul

You did not

 

Not until I was gone

Not until I was not yours to keep

anymore

 

Anymore time

Anymore love

Anymore pain

Not New

Coming from a place

not new

We have common pain

we have thoughts of strange

 

Strange choices

Lost chances

 

I regret not

That I loved you

 

I regret not

That I still

 

But I am not yours

and will never be again

Going

Going through the motions of thought

loving time alone

hating the time feeling alone

when will this be tolerable?

 

I am slowing down

taking the breathe to be

because I need to believe

that I don’t need you to feel like I’m me

 

Take my time

feel my sanity like a fingertip to the heart

caressing my soul one day at a time

one day at a time

Hands

And your hand in my hand

makes my heart beat beat

like that old feeling

I never knew I could feel again

You see me, I see you

And your there

I’m here

Come get me

Crumbs

 

There are crumbs where my heart used to beat

 

Growing ever so slowly

Loving breath by breath

 

Like a picture

Like a cause

I’m not who I once was

 

Make the time to be

Because my rhyme is to see me

Nothing

It’s not about me

It’s not about love

It’s not that I can’t be alone

It’s just better now

Somehow when I need

I need nothing at all
