Getting there, though no idea where.
And to be honest: I don’t care.
But slowly, step by step,
every second, every day,
I am getting closer, yes, I am!

And sometimes it feels like I can see it,
I can taste it, I can hear it.
Sometimes it seems like I'm already there,
no longer here.

But there’s still a long way to go,
many sleepless nights and long days
a journey through the snow, the hail, and the sleet.

Getting there, though no idea where.
And to be honest, I don’t care.

Would it help me if I did?

So you stay there
And I'll start from here
But when I get near
Please don't feed my fear

Your name there always
Don't know how to stop loving
Same heartache each day
I just can't shake it
Mrs Timetable Jan 2024
There are people
Who can cause
Your pain
By doing
Nothing.
That nothing
Is something
For you.
There are people
Who can relieve
Your pain
By doing
Nothing.
That nothing
Is everything
For you.
Keep your loved ones close. You are going to need them forever.

We're finally here
Driving long miles tired
Arriving safely
About long road trips

There ...

to there ...
there ...
where no one ...
there ..
where only me ...
and my words ...
and your shinny eyes ...
which it bright up ...
my dark lonely night ...
to dream of you ...
as our dream ...
that we together ...
dreamt ...
to be both always ...
as the promise we took ...
to spend the whole life ...
there ...
lonely ...
just ...
me and you ...
to enjoy only ...
our love  ...
as we always ...
talked about ...
and as my all poems ...
which i wrote ...
only for you ...

here i am sweetheart ...
writing ...
and waiting for you ...

I see birds fly
from this concrete predicament
faces in ****** hands
I hurt and I cry
my hands are wet
trapped
on Pilates plateau
a place where bugs die.
Hey...
Someone hear me -
now that he’s gone,
he’s gone for good.
Someone see me
through this airless night,
for the monster I am when I turn out the light..
Someone believe me...
when I say my thoughts are stark,
treacherous and dark.
Someone tell me,
a kind word or
a soft humming song.
Someone hold me -
back from tempting abuse,
for I’m dying to cut loose.
Someone give me -
a half arsed wave or a fraudulent smile,
a ******* reason to stay alive.
