Sweet Serendipity
People often use the term "home is where the heart is" as reference that home is a literal place. That you can touch it, feel it, live in it and it's physically there. But I just can't seem to wrap my mind around that. Because my heart belongs to a home that isn't there in a physical sense. My home is the way you say my name and draw circles on my lower back. My home is built and structured in between your arms and in the crook of your neck. I've never felt more at home then when we are skin to skin and I want to pull you even closer. No my home is not a building, my home is you and that's where my heart will always be.
this is a rough draft, sorry

My dad dug his foot into my back like a shovel breaking soil.
If I do enough push ups, can I put a smile on your face.
If I move the earth for you, will meteors stop me.

I carried sparklers in my hands while cannon-kisses erupted in the sky,
and my cousin swore that I'd hurt myself.
But I explained to him that history repeats itself,
and that my hurt is unavoidable.

Like the hug of a grieving grandmother,
and the staring off into space,
as her tears stain my white oxford lie.
There's no way to get out of this place.
Finding new ways to live in death.

I don't want to be cool. I don't want to be cool.

And her fingers left a ******* on my back.
And my mouth melted onto hers.
I love her until my eyes **** in sleep.
And it's deep. And it's deep.

The swirl of the ceiling sank down
like a child being drowned by his mother.
And I missed my brother, and I missed it all.

I don't want to be cool. I don't want to be cool.
No, not anymore.

You are
a storm
and I am
the sea.

You fuel both
the anger
and serenity
in me.

you shielded your heart
with a 40 caliber gun,
but i left mine open,
and out in the sun.

i watched children play,
and laugh and sing,
but you only saw the darkness,
like the one broken swing.

life is beautiful,
but you don't have a clue
because you only notice
the one rock in your shoe.

i took you to the park,
so you could see the flowers,
but you ripped them from the ground
and said, "needs more spring showers"

and so after while
i got tired of fighting
you saw no beauty
you only saw a blank tile

but maybe one day
someone will come along
and steal you from
your misty fog.
this is inspired from lana del rey's 'black beauty' because she's a beautiful singer and the song has such a deep meaning and one line is actually from the song because it's so amazing so go listen to it

Silent Thoughts
I saw a quote today that said,
“One day you lose something, and you'll say:
‘Oh my God. I was happy.
And I didn’t even know it.’”

But then came the voice inside my head,
"That day you lost someone, and you thought:
'Oh my God. I was unhappy.
And I didn't even know it."
