Maybe the ocean runs out of breath and that’s why it keeps crashing against the shore
——-
Maybe we were meant to be free,
Maybe it’s a look that lasts longer than it should
All the champagne
All the lights
Pack my bags
The streets in this town
They all are leading out
She feels free
It was just her lips
A kiss
Couldn’t turn around
The universe in her eyes
Feel the ocean in her skin
Crashing against the shore
Anchored together
Forget the night
Everything is
Everything is new in the morning …
Francis: bad news, your polls are slipping…there’s no more snax…
Ethan: sorry bud, life is a jungle, we have to fend for ourselves…give me some paper I’ll make a fire…
Francis: I’m calling the pizza man…i don’t believe this man has ever made a fire…
Ethan: hey, I heard that.
What is this
Hold me down
This love
I’ve worked
Long long hours
The expressions
The notes
The wall
She is gone
I’ve been gone
My love
My tongue
This language
Doesn’t understand
I can’t be here
I can’t be there
I need the mountains
I need the sea
I need the air
I was raised to be patient
But what is this ?
Writers tears…
She is
Undressing
In front of me
This move
This love
Oh love
Hold on
What
This love
This touch
Thunder
Lightning
Someone else
Somewhere else
Feels the damnation
How are we going ?
This love
This move
Hold on
What is this-touch
skin on skin
Tongue on tongue
What language is this….
Dear you
Take a moment
To celebrate your wins
You’ve made it this far
Be proud of yourself
And your success
The goals you’ve crushed
This is your life…
You’re living it
Right here, in the now
And if you’re wondering
You’ve been heard
You’re not alone
Your feeling are valid
Even the earth is overwhelmed
at times
And drops a storm for 72 hours
Flooding
Just to wipe the slate clean
And start again
You’re not alone
Even stars burn out
They have to die
To be born again
These do not quietly fade away
The do not sit alone in the dark night
They must be heard
They must be seen
They shake the heavens
With a supernova
Giving birth to other stars
You
You matter
You have more atoms in your eye
Than all the stars in the known universe ….
Maybe this is why we feel so young
Maybe this is why
We feel so old ….
We’ve been here before
But this love
This life
This heart
The fire in your eyes
Has burned with the sun
You matter
This is what legacy’s are made of
These victories
I want to celebrate with you
I want to guard your dreams
Dear you
Keep moving forward
That’s how progress is made
Three steps forward
Two back
Overall
Progress
I try to tell myself
Being a people pleaser is not a virtue
Being present and feeling others emotions with them
Is not being flirtatious
It’s being present
And most of the time
It’s easier than feeling
This hundred pound weight
On my chest
Filling these lungs with water
Try to write in blood
I’ll tell you when I feel better
If I feel better
When will I ever feel anything
Anything
At all
Most of the time
I feel like
I don’t feel anything at all
Tear out this heart
Throw it all away
I can’t keep walking on
Pretending
Let’s just keep pretending we’re all ok
I can feel myself getting bad again
It’s there in the room
That familiar
Echo of words and pain
I still get dressed
I pour my coffee
Darkness
It feels like I’m dying
It feels like I’m empty
I’m in a room
With you
But without
It feels like a six inch blade
Running through my heart tonight
