From nowhere you burst into my life like a shooting star racing across the night sky.
Slowly you began the arduous work of mending a heart you did not break.
Every word that escaped your lips a balm for the bruised and bloody wounds so carelessly gifted to me.
With your hand in mine I learned to love again. To trust again.
In your eyes I saw forever - blissful, peaceful, safe. Each kiss a prom...
You never asked, but I would love to go get ice cream.
You never asked, but no, I don’t have plans Friday night.
You never asked, but I do love going to the movies but popcorn is a must.
You never asked, but my birthday is in March.
You never asked, but I do really like you.
You never asked, but I would love to go on a roadtrip and jam out to old 90’s music.
You never asked, but when can I m...
If only…
If only I had made the decision to take the scary road instead of the safe one. Where would u have ended up? What would life have turned out to be?
If only I had chosen myself instead of allowing others to put me last. Who would I have been with my own support backing me? Would I be someone I liked?
If only I had been allowed to dream without being told it was pointless. Do you think...
I do not yearn to be in any place long enough to establish roots
If grass grows beneath my feet, I have failed myself
My heart is a wanderer and I must obey her wishes
To wake to the song of birds in a golden autumn forest
To be lulled to sleep to the lullaby of waves crashing on a white sand beach
To sit on mountain tops, taking everything in, and to explore their valley’s and the treasures they...
Maybe I don’t belong here. I’ve always been…different. Odd. Eccentric. Peculiar.
Never fitting in with those society deemed important with their arbitrary social norms.
And maybe that’s for the best.
Maybe I’m not meant to be a part of the crowd. Maybe I’m not meant to be the same, just another faceless person in a sea of duplicity.
Maybe my destiny is elsewhere, in the infinite vastness of pos...
Willingly, I gave every bit of myself to you. I held nothing back. You held me, and began tearing pieces away, discarding them on the floor. To my surprise, I watched as you smiled and crushed bits of me in your hands. Picking me apart. I became small and less of myself. Slowly you broke me, leaving nothing of value behind. The small piece of me that survives must be protected at all costs. Nobody...
The door creaks as you walk through, keys and briefcase quickly discarded.
Your eyes find me as you turn, already staring back at you.
Pausing, you allow me a moment to take you in - your body, your clothing, but mostly I stare at your face.
The culmination of hundreds of people loving each other in years long past.
Do you get your eyes from your mother?
Those ever changing, dazzling blues. O...
