I am reaching out to you
Because I could not stop it
How have you been?
I have been missing you
Hope you have been missing me too.

Afraid.
Of rejectance.
Reaching out a timid hand
Just as scared of acceptance.
Alone in a crowd
Similarly different.

she looked up
cracking a little smile
her eyes far into the distance
and thoughts reaching out beyond
like all she needed were the memories

Need a Hug

Smiling girl
Eyes of green
Rare little gem
Easy to please
No one to love

Reaching out
Out for you
But I cant see.
Eagerly waiting
Ready to find
Those loving arms.
Seren needs a hug.

Premium Member Continue Reaching Out

We perish
from all those around
fleeing
disguising ourselves
disappearing
hiding beneath facades
dematerializing
withdrawing within oneself
while others
continue reaching out

Kisses and Butterflies

Piercing through
my ever insistent darkness
an orchestra of emotions
reaching out
... reaching in

Playfully, 
my dormant butterflies
awaken
by the touch of
your lips on mine

Naked and Unadorned

The trees branches naked and unadorned are looking upwards
soliciting help from the spring sunshine to warm its inner core
Leaves sprouting reaching out for the weak warmth, instant beauty
