She keeps me tossing and turning at night
As he forces me to wake up at first light
She believes in love at first sight
And he strengthens the grip on her kite
Wrap your roots around mine
Be my unseen
partner
I am not ashamed to share
life with you
but I know you're shy
Extract me
Honey you bogle me
2,000 miles away
yet
When I am with You
Everything fades
We are the center of the world
The melody
Everything else is just noise
We rise, and dance
And I wish we could sway for the rest of our lives
I am alone
It wasn’t always this way
it wasn’t always so drab and grey
It used to be full of bright colors
flashing lights
For such a long time, I thought I understood long term relationships and that anyone can have them at any age
Specifically my own personal demographic
But suddenly
A switch flipped
And a light bulb flickered
Where goes the dark when bright mornings rise,
And the sun shows its face after sleeping?
The Earth keeps its spin as the sullen night dies,
And the moon disappears for safekeeping.
Dear Mental Health,
First I would like to say how much I cherish you. You keep me going through
good times and bad. You're there no matter if I'm smiling or sad. All that I want
Because I love you, I know you want someone else.And I want you to find them--you'll be happier then.I was an outline and instead of being my lover,Instead of being my color, you gave me the pen.
It may not always be easy,
it may not always seem right
but the path to higher consciousness is always in plain view, in clear sight
It is of course the path less traveled by,
I am unstoppable, limitless, unbeatable...ME
I can do what I want, and I want to be...ME
Everything inspires me, nothing ever tires me
I am constantly discovering the new that I am, have become, am about to be
I wish my heart and my brain were one in the same
But they aren't and as much as I don't I like it that way
One is like fire and the other like wind
Desire and passion but then I stop to think it over again
Caught between one life and the next,
the ground cracks beneath my feet, singing.
Throw yourself, it croons, ageless volcanoes
humming up through jagged earth.
My heart breaks, tugging me forward,
Falling in love
is a silly phrase
I don't feel like I'm falling.
I am floating, flying
an upward feeling
like a dream
a trance
birth of stars within my mind
Theres something for all of us on the other side
Something special, decieve us and we come to find
That all the evils that we've known correspond
with everthing we've ever wanted; thats no suprise
I am lost in the city of Austin.
The moon illuminates skyscrapers
As I walk through the slums,
Questioning if it is day
The greatest pain is in the heart
Managing to tear your mind apart
It can cause your life great disaster
If you allow it to be your master
We are on a constant balance between good and bad, light and dark, life and death. These things make us who we are, but the balance must stay or we may end up on the wrong side.
Fear the mind, for it is your enemy and your ally.
Beware the heart, for there is no control nor escape.
The mind and heart create the soul.
The scales are perfectly balanced.
The world is a balance.
Just like the Earth itself is a balance
While a volcano erupts with boiling magma, there's an ocean out there filled with calmness
Some find themselves
When they curl their toes over the edge of reason
Looking down at all that is sane
In my heart
Giving to others
is the only way.
Ending the pain,
loss,
darkness in this world.
A smile,
a kindness,
this is my vow.
i sat,
on the edge of dexterity and ineptness.
my heartbeat couldn't decide whether it wanted beat into an oblivion
or just stop all together.
my mind was split in two.
i wished to be yin and yang
I’m a waitress,
And I love my job—
It gives me satisfaction.
I love knowing that I am helping someone relax after a long, hard day.
I love being helpful and making people smile.
I am a force to be reckoned with.
I seize emotions,
Dazzle with my inner chaos,
And topple egos.
5am.
Irish cream.
Did I really wake up,
or was it just a dream?
Did I really heal?
Did you or did you not help me?
Is this really ending?
When did I get so clingy?
Listening to a TED talk,
I learned how the universe is like two mirrors reflecting each other endlessly,
Each reflection representing different dimensions.
Each so short of time for us to live our life,
MOM patient with the biggest heart <3
a care for others even after all they done wrong
gossip with intentions to cure any situation
i honor your beauty,ease you have with words are a sensation
If there are people, there are spirits.
If there is a God, there is a Devil.
If there are angels, there are demons.
One cannot exist without the other.
A whisper here a hush there
I feel the wind run through my hair
It tells me tales of our wondrous land
Of the lost good of the kind man
He helped the poor and strengthened the weak
One O to another
Having blessed vigor
And stunning figure
You stand out
Just right about
Just a Friendly Tiding
Far I am from you
My Brother of blood
Years have passed many days
Since we last spoke unto one another
Rebecca Shane
Riveting steel talons
Slung over your shoulders
Blood red blotches
Stain your soles
Kindness is helping make plans, pushing to chase dreams
It's helping to throw a pebble in a racing stream.
The pebble doesn't stop the stream, but when it's joined by two or three
it makes a difference can't you see.
Happiness
Many things can bring joy to ones life.
Exploring love,
Family,
Friendships.
Do you remember
The earth’s heartbeat?
Do you know
That flowers aren’t just
To look pretty?
And that the dirt
My form is fading.
Yet Time persists and
Substance lingers
on the tongue of the tiger—
withered by fire and
water,
There is always a balanced
A pretender A giver A fighter A lover
Certainly Uncertain
The paradox of a forgotten tomorrow and
a foretold yesterday
Can’t exude the pain, the relapse or fear
She held my hand as a child, keeping me upright and safe. She supported me in my older years, saying, "Life is the chances you take." Now today I reminice these times, haunting me more and more. I hope, in other words, she'll always be happy
Poetry is my love
Poetry is a talent
Poetry makes me move
In a direction of balance.
Finding harmony inside
Expressing feelings hidden
Finding love from outside
And not hiding thoughts given
To Confront someone about a problem
Is something people must take solemn.
Futile, I know my efforts may be in vein
but I intend to undertake and let my words reign.
Feelings, emotions building up
Words bursting to life as I try to express myself.
Physically pouring my thoughts on paper
Critiquing my own judgments and views.
The chance to improve myself,
The sun breaks upon the Earth, its royal light, radiating upon Gaia.
We are closed, broken, yet hopeful. Seeking a source of warmth.
There are many, some we do not realize. The simplest beauties.
How much do I love you?
How much do you care?
What I would do for just your kiss and your stare?
These questions frequently run through my mind.
Sometimes it scares me, I wish I could hide.
Laying here, delighting in the warmth of the sun You made
Receiving Your tender kisses as the rays hug the backs of my legs
These sticks that I walk on
These soles that give me balance
