The heart aches
It longs
For something
That is not there
The heart awakes
At any sign of a
Kindred spirit
A heart persuades
And captures
Another
The heart realizes
What's at stake
And continues
Still
The heart takes
A
Leap
Of
Faith
The heart mistakes
Security for love
A
heart
snakes
And
Slithers
And
Sinks
Its
Teeth
Into
Your
Flesh
And
Latches
On
The heart takes
Caution
And throws it to the
Wind
The heart makes
The boundary lines
Blur
The heart steps on the brakes
Wanting to get off
The roller coaster
Before the
Drop
The heart breaks
The second it is betrayed

10 Years
A typical question older teens and adults are asked; "where do you see yourself in 10 years?" Usually, it takes people a while to come up with an answer, especially when they don't even know what they're going to eat for dinner or when they plan on being in the exact same spot in 10 years (which would be an embarrassing response to give). And when they do finally scrape together a somewhat decent response, it's the same old BS. "I want to live a better life, maybe buy a big house," "I plan on getting my mom her dream car", "I want to apologize to this person or that." But who ever does what they say they're going to? We're a bunch of hypocrites. Even me.
