It is always so beautiful to see a crowd. They are one, made of many. Each person walking to the same rhythm- a heartbeat.
Bum Bum
At first it is quiet. It is the first sign of life, or better yet, a rebirth.
Bum Bum
It has grown louder, echoing through the streets. They are united, they are one.
BUM BUM
It is deafening, the beautiful sound of rebellion and of unity. Many people standing for one purpose, a sign of change.
That is what can change lives, every person rising up for what they believe in, standing tall while they sing. They march to a beat, that heartbeat- now deafening- as a sign of beauty and of something new.
There is something insincere about ‘I love you’.
I mean so much more when I say those words, that I feel will never be understood. This isn't lust, this isn’t friendship- this is something in between. This love is me giving my heart, my soul, my everything to you and trusting that you will do the same.
Never in my life before
Have i felt this unfulfilling ache
Which rises with the rosy sun
But never seems to set
At twilight
I want to give you my smile when you are sad.
I want to give you my spirit when yours is lost.
I want to lend you my heart when yours is broken.
Because you made me whole again- you made me complete, and i want to return the favor. You will find happiness, even if it kills me to make it happen.
I find that i am tired
Of being tired
And that i am wishing
My wishes would come true
I am constantly praying
That my prayers will be heard
And that i am always writing
About the pain of words
The bloodiest hands
Are those of time.
As it passes
And the seasons change,
All things age
And die.
Its 6:00 in the morning
I'd rather be in bed
Sleeping, waiting
Hibernating
For another day
Instead
What we have isn't sweet, kind, or pure. It is a red war. I look at myself and I don't see the adoring eyes of a woman in love, instead I see the hardened stare of a soldier. This love is a battle; we will fight, claw, and tear ourselves apart in order to win. But what do we gain? One step forward, two steps back until we are miles apart. Now, I miss the fight- I miss the look in your eyes that would reassure me that you believed in the cause. I miss the expression that confirmed that you believed in me.
In the shakey moments
Between wake and sleep
I let loose the tears
That I didn’t let you see
They fall upon my pillow
And transform into rust
Reminding me that we
Are nothing more
Than dust
So I'm colorblind, and when I was starting at a new school everybody was super freaked when they found out. People always point at things and ask what color it is... is this just me? Like this,
People: Ooh! You’re colorblind? What color is the sky?
Me: Blue.
People: What color is this paper?
Me: White.
People: You aren’t colorblind, why would you lie?
Me: I’m not lying, I am colorblind. I’m just not colorstupid.
But then there are sometimes...
People: Ok, what color is this peanut butter?
Me: ...
Me: Green..?
