(2014)
I have whispered your name into the air so many times it has become the breeze that blows
I see words screaming for attention etched in the lines of your face Let me look closer
There is a girl and I love her and I have loved her since the beg… Or so it seems to me as I only became conscious
If nature were so flattered by poems written with itself in mind as people are we would be moving mountains
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
I feel empty unceasingly until you come along and fill my heart to bursting
Under the weight of life I forget how to breathe and I feel suffocated I hesitantly make peace with the world
I’ve always been at the very least a little caught up on everything about you This idea of you
You asked what I knew about you and I thought up a list of twenty things
Just when I get back on my feet you pass on by and I lose my footing Again
Loving you was never sweet like the taste of vanilla the way I thought it was supposed to be It was more like
Forever seems like so long until I think of all the times spent waiting
I spend my nights wishing on every star in the sky that you are alive and well
Everyday I visit the only writers block I know to hone my words and wit and help them cut deeper into the skin
I’ve kept my eyes closed most of these past eighteen years because I find it just as dark
