Optimist
Everything isn’t set in stone
but its written on the surface
Permanent marker
Scratch it off? Unlikely
But it’s a possibility
The door got unlocked
Open
Free
What’s left of this time?
Nothing, everything,
Me
Hitting the ground, with a whispering sound
We build up and add to, revise and improve,
these fragile pages.
Add and add and add, make it better, fill it fuller
With what reasons?
The calm falls back to chaos, indefinitely
Who are we fooling, who is fooling us
I can’t, couldn’t, get my memories off my tongue quick enough
if i can’t, couldn’t, they will revert back to the dust that built them,
the dust of my bones and ever beating pulse
The pulse of the ground and the pulse of the rain hitting it
will all get lost in the dust stirred by the chaos,
indefinitely
thats enough
Emotionally parasitic, feeding off of everybody elses happiness. Youre okay, I’m okay. Winter is coming and you’re already taking off, running. Where’s the next one to laugh and smile and rip clothes off of
Forget that, you’ll dream up your own reality
Just don’t come running back
I’ll stay lost in myself until someone steps in my way. Trip me up, watch me fall.
The sky looks better from down here
if they sing like bears
Let me sleep standing up and walk across the world without remembering where I’m going. Let me only think clearly in my dreams. Let me breathe underwater and above the atmosphere.
There are so many people out there, more than you could ever imagine. Maybe dreams are like fingerprints, no two are identical.
Sleepwalk into my soul and see through my eyes, you aren’t who you think you are.
nowhere near
I’ll strictly act on a look but don’t touch, talk but don’t whisper policy. There are some things that are meant to seem desirable in the best of ways with the worst outcomes.
Sorry but there are some things that are beyond impossible.
Take it like a test.
mindset means most
I’m in love
In love with life, with the future, with the potential hiding in between every deep breath I take. I became who I had always wanted wanted to be, and now I’m lost with what to do with myself.
Everything is just too easy, taking things as they come. These hands are doing all the right things with the paint that coats them. These feet are wandering to all the right places in this town.
I don’t want to go back in time and live in the past, and I don’t want to rush the future. I want to live right here, right now and take everything in. I want to feel the sounds of autumn under my skin and taste times changing into winter.
If I smile at you, all I want is a smile in return.
scream and shout and yell, wake up, young dreamer
I surely hope this feeling will be infinite. I’m on top of this world, standing hand in hand with the people I trust. I’ve got no worries and care about nothing wrong and everything right.
Hey stranger, care to go grab so coffee and indulge in the glorious memories of the past we never had? We already have something in common, we’ve never known the other.
May the sky begin to rain leaves so suddenly, without the dropping of temperatures to warn us. I’m not even going to try to begin to understand what’s brightening my days. It’s just happening in the most beautiful way.
moments of uncertainty
You were dead long before that car wreck, but that was the breaking point. Nobody was killed, just some broken bones and memories being spilled out across the pavement.
We have no idea who you are, you are a stranger to those who knew you best.
Where do people go when the person they love doesn’t exist anymore?
i had thought chaos would of been louder
Glass shatters around your face, and you’ve got this town hanging out your window. Metal won’t ever bend back in place, but it’s just enough for you to live it down. Fuck you for giving up on me, but I’m too young for it to really make a difference.
That was the first time I realized how fast time could move. It was the first time I realized how easy it was for you to choose somebody other than me.
Just please don’t speak against the sun, keep doing what you’re doing because there are things to be done.
the car crash and empty mouths
Karma is being the biggest fucking bitch and I’ve got no idea what I did. I keep trying to do the right things, but things just keep turning against me.
It reaches a point where I can’t mentally or physically take any of this, a boiling point.
Why do mornings lie to you, why does everything act like its getting better?
Get what you give doesn’t work.
thursdays are for slackers
Eat butterflies, they all belong in your stomach. Such is life, I assumed this vicious cycle had begun again, but your voice proved me wrong.
I’m breathing, I’m nothing more and something less.
We all want to be worth someones time, I just want to fill up a minute of yours. It’s just that as much as I deny love’s existence, it’s still hiding somewhere. It’s not some big grand idea, though. Love won’t slap you in the face and scream and yell at you. You’ve got to realize it’s within you around you when it is. It whispers around cups of coffee and innocent eyes. It’s knowing what your worth. It’s finding hands and reading minds and understanding and forgetting. It’s the fact that I fucked up and missed out, simply said. I didn’t know what love was until I knew my life was lacking what it had once had.
Nothing sounds as good twice written
I just wasn’t quick enough
you lost your family
Rewriting song titles, it’s pathetic how many of them remind me of you. It’s been long enough for you to forget everything but I’ve still got daydreams and nightmares about you every day of every week.
This summer is over in a few days for me, maybe so will this cycle. Sometimes people have a change of heart and a change of thought. I can only ever wish for what I want, but you can always wish for what you don’t want.
