on the wall
halle Feb 2018
my feelings aren't a mirror
not of you, at least.
you're always so happy sunshine
while i'm a jagged beast.

you will forget me someday
and it will be just fine.
the world will still turn
the sun will always shine.

you're with you forever,
i was just a flash.
my disconnected lifestyle
doesn't allow things just to last.

i can say i am afraid,
(and this would be the truth)
there's more to it, however --
i've gone too late, not too soon.

sunshine, starshine
halle Feb 2018
you're a galaxy personified
i know what i mean.
you're trying to make it all work
your mind is like a dream.

one of the dreams that turns
to nightmares,
because it makes you want to ignore
the fact that i can be here and there.

(i swear. i'll be good.
i say it a million times,
but i mean it --
it just gets lost in the rhymes).

i'll be standing on the sidelines,
pom poms in my hand
you're making me so proud
i could maybe do a handstand.

a window and door will open
and you'll walk inside,
just like your light, my love,
you'll be enveloped by the sunshine.

— The End —
