paradox
I felt very distant from you,
But I couldn't be remote from you,
Why? I don't know
But this is not comfortable.
But also seeing someone else
Watching you, crushing on you,
I feel jealous, but I shouldn't.
But now, you are in my life,
I can't change it.
I tried to stop talking to you, but couldn't.
Even if I understand you,

The Journey Home
Just one pint in a cosy warm pub
Keep us away from the family we love
Just one more pint - the evening won’t end
The time you have a laugh with a friend
Just one more pint, a pint between mates
Talking about all our trophies and mistakes
Just one more pint, A pint for the road.
We start talking about

i hope you never stop singing
a songbird beloved who moves with intention
will find themselves in times of trouble
mother mary on their bustier—
a sight for those with the privilege to see.
stands on a paddleboard oaring towards me.
embodies a world full of pain in their bones
and their muscles

Can I Be The One
Can I be the one you see in the morning light,
The first one to greet you, and make everything right?
Can I be the first one you see when you close your eyes,
The last thought on your mind, the one that never dies?
Can I be the one to hold you so tight,
To keep you safe, to

Libra
The babies of the fall
The fairest of them all
They live to weigh the scales
‘Cause “Justice will prevail”
They’re social butterflies
Personalities full of charm
Their smiles, you’ll memorize
“They’re sweet so what’s the harm?”
They love beautiful things
They’re into casual flings
But these ones tend to cling
Like an angel to its wings
These lovers are the sweetest
They’ll take

Where Grass That Grow
When you hate someone
And you still feel love
It's like burning a grass
And then still grows back.
When you control love
And you still unable to deny
It's like mowing the grass
After a few days it offshoot again.
When you befriend someone
Be sure it is mutually agreed
For when trouble comes near
Both parties can able to amend.
When

Hopeless Romantic
I’m hopelessly shy
I’m too shy to talk
I can’t even say hi
I turn the other way and walk
I’m sitting here dreaming
Can’t get you out of my head
Thoughts of you are streaming
Why’s my face turning red?
When I hear your voice
I think angels rejoice
I could hear you talk for years
Your voice is music to my ears
I could

pinky promises
It didn't end, like it started
Something that I've heard, like
“In losing what we once held,
We find the true worth of it”
It didn't bother me until now.
The thought itself was too heavy
Too heavy to live with, die with
I would live but death would take my soul
My soul as it was tied with yours
With you, I feel

Abandoned friend
#My_abandoned_friend
Focused so much on my grind and neglected you, tossed you so far, less I knew how wild and unsafe this universe was, today i saw my contributed evil deeds, evident all over your face, hardly recognized the once illuminative smile, could hear the fading and in crawling stage the laughter you made,

Angels of grace
Weak I became
Wrapped in a heavy cloak of guilt and shame
Lost and unable to reclaim
My feet were once firm
now trembled with fear
Afraid to stand before the Lord, my heart unclear
But God, in his mercy, sent me angels of grace
Who listened to my story and showed a gentle face
They helped me rise reminding me

Most People I Know Think That I’m Crazy
I love the world I have created,
The people and places I have found.
Finally, I can be who I really am,
Not normal like everyone else.
I am crazy, I know that,
So does everyone I know.
Maybe that is why I love every one of them.
No matter what happens in our lives,
I can be the lunatic I want to

Material Memories
Little trinket gather on her nightstand.
Each holding powerful memories.
The cowbell decorated with colors,
from her once so dear football team.
It's always been louder than others,
showing through with a prideful beam.
The hand painted rock,
with the sun and white fluffed clouds,
serves as a key to a lock,
to a time her voice was outspoken and
