Come watch the stars with me?
You said yes, but I don't believe you
It's okay though
I'll keep the memories of the constellations for us
For when you're done hiding up there
On the dark side of the moon
I'll be here waiting
Building a rocket to get to you

-

All this empty space
Surrounded by all our mistakes.
I used to be covered in dirt
but only to be rebirthed.

Your lines were soft black charcoal,
but every conversation we have now is dull.
You were a soft shade of blue,
but now you’re nothing new.
I do not miss you.

I have nailed that door shut,
finally out of that pathetic rut.
I missed you in the abstract,
but now that canvas has cracked.

-

I feel happiness, but not complete fulfillment.
That’s the part that always seems out of reach.
And I enjoy all the ways I succeed on my own.
I just get tired of all the times I make this speech.

Why is it love no longer endures?
All this abandoned warmth in my chest with no where to be stored.
Trapped within my cage and lost within my depths.
I dabble in many things, but I always feel so bored.

I’ve always been able to manifest.
I communicate with my team.
The intentions have all been set.
So why is it I can’t have my dream?

I was never meant for this planet.
Though I understand why I’m here.
What if I reject my souls purpose?
All is lost in this atmosphere.

-

My days blend into nights
I drink coffee at 10pm
I am turning into one of those people
Who I've always sort of admired

You have something to stay up for
So many thoughts
You don't have time to sleep yet
Since you're brimming at the top

Coming from being directionless
I'll take this without a second thought
The only thing I need to work through is
Am I worth all that I've wrought?

But I fought to get here
This is what I struggled and suffered for
And I will be damned if
I don't walk through this door.

-

Can you remember me?
Running through flowerfields
wind in my hair, barefoot
and my soul all free.

Its been a while.

-

"What is holding you back?"
The question rings in my ears
My brain trembles at the thought that
Despite my forward-running heart
You are pulling me backwards

-

Battered and alone
A day in exhaustion
To drift away in the dark
Without peace of mind
Facing the next day
Against the dulled morning
Aside the shadows that stalk me

-

I often wonder how I’m still alive.
I may be breathing, but I’ve already died.
They never see the truth in a vessel.
Missing the point is part of the ride.

Looking around there’s nothing worthy.
The world is disgusting in my eyes.
Yet, I still care about the people around.
We’re all miserable while finding purpose in lies.

Full of passion, but also empty.
I want to meet someone who can see.
We live in a world structured to be a cell.
All surviving, but can never be free.

-

Burn down the bridges
Which take you to your past
Because the other part always seem rosier
That's what you have now.

-

The Christmas lights in the window turn warm in my face
As I have you next to me

This is just a regular Saturday in December
But to me it's a river of poems
One of many to bleed so bright

I will keep this moment treasured now
And add it to the story of you and me
A picture of my feelings
I believe it's called a memory.
