Ay Be Ay

It's a Dixon Ticonderoga HB#2
This pencil, still my favorite, 
Still ties me back to you.

I'm so distant as of late,
In my mind, in my heart,
It seems there's too much on my plate.

I've been selfish in my time
And stingy with myself,
Thinking I'm passed my prime.

I don't know who I am
Now who you ever were
Nor who we should've been.

Anxiety is crippling me
Today is not my day again
Nor is any next day I foresee.

I'm tired of being here.
I want to, please, go home
Before home turns into fear.

Remind me who I'm not
By showing me who you are
All the demons I have fought.

Love Letter

i should write something back,
I know.
Love letters do not agree well
When left without a response.
This is what I continue to tell myself.
Still, there it sits,
Anonymous and unrequited 
I will not write a lie,
Nor will I feign feelings
Where it's certain they'll 
Never be.
Still, I should write something back,
I know.
Love letters do not age well
When left with a response.

Almost

I am overwhelmed with almost.
It's in everything I see
And everything I do,
Almost all around me.

Water, almost clean.
Food, almost filling.
Tea, almost hot.
Mind, almost willing.

Almost, inescapable,
Yes, I can almost get away.
But almost always finds me
Wherever I almost stay.

See, I almost got to sleep in,
Almost found a four leaf clover.
I almost tried to make a new friend,
Except, my sentence is almost over.

My heart was almost broken
By a love I almost felt.
The pain, it almost killed me,
It almost sent me back to hell.

Then you said you almost missed me,
Which made me feel almost bad.
I've been more than almost distant 
Because I'm so much more than almost sad

You

Paint me in your memory
I long to feel your love
Sketch my soul upon your spirit
Tell me that I'm enough 

You, my other half
The best part of me
The blood inside my veins
The very air I breathe

You are who I am
Everything I have become
You are the final product 
Of every good thing I have done

You are who I long to be
So etch my name upon your skin
Then everywhere I get to go
Is every place that you have been

My own mind, endless torment
Every thought exposed and true
It's clear that I am nothing
Unless I am with you.

Fearful Realizations

My days are void of color
It seems I cannot speak your name
My consciousness lives within my memories
Holding only myself to blame.

The bleakness of reality 
My soul, it perseveres
It lives far outside these bricks
I'm left alone with just my fears:

I am one broken half
To a whole I long to be
I am the shards of shattered glass
Of the crystal rose you once made me.

I am sharp cruel edges
Broken thorns, scuffed out shine
I am every tear shed in secrecy
Every single dishonest "I'm fine."

I am drops of paint beneath tables
Hidden corners, lacking grout
I am every hope and wish and promise
That everyone forgot about.

The Little Things

I enjoy the little things 
And the big things, I ignore 
Instead of sitting idle,
I would much rather explore.

Life is an adventure 
So, I take it as a joke.
I'll always find the silver lining,
Even if I'm hungry, homeless, and broke.

Nothing in this world matters
No, not even me or you,
So living for just this moment
Is all that we can do.

I enjoy the little things,
Because that's all we really have
Every moment I'm alive, 
I'll be searching for a laugh.
