Royalty

The Sun set as it always does. I made eye contact with you as the eternal light faded like I always do. You’ve always been one to more so get lost in the phases of the Moon. Some may say it’s all very romantic, but really I just want to feel alive. I just want…

EGO

“Who knows if I would’ve ended it?! You called me and ended us with no regard of what I was going through. ” I was the one left picking up pieces from a future we imagined. How ironic is it you destroyed worlds, then have the nerve to continue walking around as if you care…

Soft Pink

“WHY do you only listen to sad music?” She asked if she really cared about me. It was that perfect time of day. The time of day when you didn’t know if the Sun was setting or rising. I told her “ I’m trying to catch a vibe. For now on I only crave what…

Water Based

All these beautiful rolled up dollar bills. We need bigger currency for this expensive view. We getting so much older now. Sooner or later the world is going to stop accepting we don’t know what to do. They want us to grow up like everyone else before us did. Put crowns on the kids We…

Yuletide

IT’S been one hell of a year and now they want you to sing. With no regards for the dark parts of your soul they want you to be light and spirit. Not a creature was stirring except for your demons. They are always there; persistent as ever. Do you fight your demons or accept…

Fall Memoirs

I don’t want to end up being two people who believe in love but no longer believe in each other. I’ve seen it happen far too often… Someone who was on the road to helping you achieve inner peace traveled for too long and is now your enemy. If a blessing doesn’t mature. Then it…

Growth

Every time I walk past the river I think about throwing my phone in. I don’t know what I would do after that besides trying to figure out life. I don’t even know why I told you that… All these thoughts I guess I’m just trying to sort them out. I have plenty doubts about…

Questioning Love

What are you here for? What are you afraid of? I wish when you looked in the mirror. You saw what I see when you smile. But I know sometimes reflections can be our biggest fears. I know sometimes we are our own worse enemy. I wish you loved yourself. I wish instead of complaining…

Here and Now

Who do you belong to? Nobody Who do you belong with? Always and forever you You’re the only one I miss when I’m alone in my room. You’re the only one I miss when I’m alone in my room thinking of the shadows of what I could’ve been before circumstances got ahold of me. You’re…

Matter…

Truth of the matter is it’s been awhile since we talked like this. I told you I love you and I meant it with all of my damaged heart. I just wish I didn’t say it so soon. But I would never time travel to change how I feel about you. We finish each other’s…

Seeds of Growth

It’s the season of growth. All those seeds I planted in the Winter are coming back as trophies. I’m evil but I’m not scared. I’m not scared to say I wish you were here to hold me. I’m growing, I wish you were here when I’m new to know me. You’re still preoccupied with thoughts…
