The Shape of You
God had painted the world with a thin layer of sheer silver that gave everything an illuminating effect; Jonah breathed in slowly, quietly, as he leaned back against the old wooden bench. His eyes were on the still water of the pond but not actually looking at it. Instead, the pictures in his mind flashed before him brilliantly, almost as if they were where he was instead.

She's an angel ...
The world always seems so beautifully innocent when you’re holding the devil’s drink in your hand - She smirked at the thought-

Let Go
She stares at the calligraphy littered upon the page like flower petals that were thrown carelessly upon a marital bed; Full of hope and fantasies of what dreams could be… and hidden underneath are the hushed nightmares of who came before.

To Fall... To believe
Waves crash and the wind starts to weave delicious ribbons of incoherent thoughts; Attempting to prevent the spiral of anxiety is useless;

Hush
Hush; be still within the noise. Half a breath and you’ll understand. We stare out into the ocean, watching for the horizon as it meets the sky-

Her heart is a kaleidoscope
All she wanted was to find her Hallmark romance. Instead she would be his lesson learned- His sad country song as he watched from afar as she danced- taking the pieces he broke and turning them into a kaleidoscope.

Rough Draft
When the moon impatiently climbs the sky even though the sun is still saying his slow goodbyes, And we’re driving down an empty road together…

... but Was it?
Breathe. It’s as easy as counting the stars in the sky… One, two, three- when did the wind take her in his arms? She felt drunk from the sensations…

ThirtySix
I have somehow found myself on the wrong side of 35; but why is it the wrong side? What is so wrong with getting older? Why am I suddenly the villain? Is it because of my age? Maybe it’s because I’m so gloriously single… Though I’m not the only one. I do not seek what they seek, but maybe it’s because I do not understand what they are chasing. I chase fevers and run after fears; what doesn’t kill me makes me stronger. I’m stronger than what most like to believe, but that is because I like breaking rules just like boys like lifting my ego; it doesn’t make sense, but I always end up on the beach dressed in red.
