My arm has fallen
Asleep again
Like my mind at 3am.
And I hope by shaking it
Out today
I may save it from needles
And pins
I knew i had to leave you
When sitting by your side
Began to feel painful
Instead of like home
I inhale lemon.
A sweet breath
That ushers in my sleep,
So then i waver
Into a state
Filled with nothing
Except the scent
Of tangerine dreams.
Tonight lets dance
Like daffodils
In a hurricane
Beautiful, flying
Braving the gusts
Of wind
That threaten to tear us
Apart
I am stronger than
My demons
And bigger than
My faults
So why do i let them control me
As if i am nothing at all
Do you ever think
That if they could see us now
They would be ashamed
Of what we’ve become?
I didn't want to be in love
You caught me by surprise
But I'm a coward, so in fear
I smothered you with lies
It is easy to see beauty in nature- after all, what is more pure than nature itself. But the struggle begins when we look at another person, but are blinded by their human nature. All we see is the flaws, when what we should seek is the soul within who is just another wanderer in this beautiful world
There was so much more
That i should have said
So i look at the sky
And scream to the stars
The words that would've
Made you stay
The world watched
As the moon wept
Silver tears
In remembrance
Of us
Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.
