Poem
This isn't the time to run away Nor is it the time to hide they say "use your whole heart and take a dive" I forgot the past while I lay in your arms you partially held me became my blanket for the meantime I swam in you and you in I threw caution to the wind I didn't think that eventually I'd cry well I knew I would eventually cry but my brain and my heart hadn't made it that far yet. I forgot about the boundaries and entered unchartered territory I went places that I shouldn't have gone because I desired you more than anything you occupied places in my heart that should have been left alone but I unlocked the door for you and here you'll stay forever I still get shivers when I hear your voice And your energy makes me feel like I'm a boss you see the thing that attracted me the most is that you picked me up when I was lost. I fell into you even though I knew the cost. Now my heart will always be thirsty for you. Like damaged hair it became porous. I don't blame you though. And surprisingly enough I don't even blame me. We saw a chance to steal a goal but ended up stealing things we couldn't keep. For a moment I owned the property, even if in secret. But the bank took you back and put foreclosure on my feelings. Now I'm left scrambling here and there. I gotta roll my sleeves down and brush off these lingering feelings. This isn't going to be easy because I will still be me and you will still be you. Its like trying to get away from a walking advertisement as big as the ones in times sqaure advertising someone whose perfect for you. But that reality is unreal so I put one foot in frount of me and slowly start to move.....
