Where words fail my poetry speaks…
and I’m really not good at speaking.
You let love break You let love take You let love shake You let love steal and create a well for hate for rage For a self that could not know

I remember the day I decided to trust It’s the same day I fell in love Not with a him, not with a face But with a reality and I felt at peace and with grace
All I want is someone Someone who will help me to stop dreaming Stop closing my eyes to imagine Stop closing my eyes to see

I hate hiding behind this mask I hate hiding behind this smile, this “cute” laugh I hate having to be this drone to be acknowledged
I realized that day I wasn’t Pluto And you weren’t the sun You were just an asteroid posing as one And when I looked down at my hands I realized, with suit and mask, I was just an observer, a simple human
He reminds me of the sun I saw you smile at that But just let me finish He seems to live 1,000,000 miles away, but only in my brain
I trusted him After all these years I finally cracked back my ribs and exposed my heart to love him I wanted him to know me
I thought I saw you yesterday I remembered your smile and the curves of your face And I was right back there in that moment that day
I told myself to stop But I couldn’t I loved the rush The feeling of life running through my blood Even if it was only temporary
Falling I don’t trust it anymore Though I’ve seen it done many times before, They all fall from this cliff, hearts open wide, pushing all fears aside
Strings are lovely things When entangled they can create a masterpiece But they can also be a danger You see time can pass and, as it does, strings tend to entangle us, it’s in all of our blood
Today I feel lost But not in a bad way I can finally create lines into words, Art on a page. Before my clouded mind wouldn’t think that way
