The storm rages on around us
And,
My dear,
I can't help but think
That even if we were in the middle of a tornado
You could make it feel like a
Calm, calm day on the lake

My life is chaotic
And nothing - nobody
Is even close to the large modicum of
Peace
your aura brings.

A pastel colored sky,
Rising up and painting the frost on my windows
A gentle kiss of color;
It's too early yet for the striking reds and oranges of the sun
And so we only have pink,
Pink and light, light blue

A gentleness fills my soul at the sight
The clouds are so soft I could almost -touch- them

Makes my heart ache

Letting go
It hurts
It hurts more than anything I've ever done
But there are some things that I just
Cannot fix,
No matter how much I might want to

I was pouring so much of myself into you,
Trying to fill you up
But you were a bucket
Not a bucket that had a hole,
No
But a bucket without a bottom.
And there would just never be enough of me to fill you.
The world would flood before I could fix you

I'm sorry
But I can't be the only one fixing you
You have to fix you, too.

I miss your face
Your myriad of freckles
Dusting your nose and cheeks and lips
I miss how your face lights up when you laugh,
Impossibly happy
I miss the sparkle in your eyes,
Your smug grin
I get these glances,
These quick snippets,
But nobody knows how much I'd give to
Study your face in depth again
I miss your astounding beauty and all the little details that make you so
Breathtaking
I just miss you
A lot
Even though you're a ****** ******* person

I just don't understand how someone so
Heavenly Beautiful
Can be so judgmental and hurtful,
Lashing out like a cornered animal
I miss you, but ******* I hate how mean you were to me
And all I did was try to be happy,
And be myself

I'm so, so sorry that offended you so

I just want you to forgive me

I do not know what I feel for you
Sometimes I feel
As though my heart might burst
And my soul will shine through my eyes
I will fall to the ground
And your name will pass through my lips
Lips that still have not felt yours yet

I have spent so much time looking at you
Every inch of you I have memorized
Every inch I have yet to touch

If you asked me I would tell you
How many freckles you have on your lips
And how you smile when I make you laugh

But I would be silent-mouthed
If you asked me what I felt for you
I do not know

Eyes, eyes, eyes
You're all that

And how can I
Ever hope
To escape
You
When you're stuck
In my brain
Latched,
Latched on,
Like a magnet
You've pinned me
Down
And I can't get

But I can spill out my soul onto these pages
Written in ink as rich as my blood

Verdant green blooms,
Exploding in the trees like fireworks

The sun ripples through the leaves,
Leaving hope shining on the ground

Mossy rocks calmly face away from the forest,
Protecting and guarding all from threats

And
The flowers,
Bursting out of the ground,
Little shocks of color
They say, "Hey! Here I am!"
Calling for attention,
The adulation of the masses,
A celebrity on the red carpet,
Flaunting their best

The forest is full of so  much life,
Bursting at the seams with stories to tell,
Watching,
And waiting.
Waiting for a listener,
So they may describe the wonder of life,
And
The Beauty.

Tonight is a night
For cheap cigarettes and cheaper whiskey
For getting mad at your parents
Who never taught you to love yourself
For letting those thoughts run through your head that
You'd never even consider if you were sober
For sitting in the cold and letting yourself freeze because
You deserve it

Tonight is a night for angry faces and angrier thoughts
For wallowing in self-pity

Tonight
Is a night
To be weak

Because when morning comes
You'll pretend it never happened

They awakened us from our slumber

If only life was as good as my imagination

Obscures my view the slightest bit

Seen before?

So the best I can manage is this,
Painting a picture of my heart with these words,
Hoping you can spot the different colors,
Picking out the details
Sometimes my pictures are cold and blue
Sometimes they're red hot
They used to be completely grey
But now they burst with color
So here you go, my dear
Snapshots of my heart, mind, and soul
I hope you like them

Because
It's hard to take a test
When all I can think about
Is your head between my legs
And I can't focus on my homework
When I can practically feel your fingers drawing lines down my body
And I don't even know concentration
When all my mind see
Is you underneath me
Whispering prayers
Because, ****
What we could make is magic
It's all I can think about

I used to have the husk of a seed inside me,
Badly in need of water and sun
And gradually,
Over time,
I watered it
And nourished it
I turned it towards the sun

And god, life is so
Beautiful

First it sprouted,
A tiny little green head poking up through the dead dirt
And it grew
And grew
And grew

And finally,
Look at me now,
I have vines running down my legs and arms,
Sprouting flowers of all colors
Red, bright pink, gentle yellow,
And -oh,
the vines wrapped around my ribs,
Sprouting out me eyes, ears, nose, and mouth
I'm just filled with happiness
-And Life
This is life, this green feeling in my body
...Sprouting flowers, not thorns

His love for me and all beings,
Filling us with his warmth and letting us know

Wanting to mourn connections I've never had.
Wanting to feel heartache over pain I've never felt.
