Thoughts

"I think we could do pretty alright together". Romance in the 21st century.

We have a lot to learn from those who study the great quiet places

I tried to run before, but I'm not running anymore.

There needs to be a code word or something that means “my brain is fighting me every step of the way today and I feel like I’m going to vibrate out of my skin, so I need you to forgive everything and go slowly and speak softly and lower your expectations.” And then we could all just be like, “I know I said we could go to a movie tonight but… tangerines.” And the other person would nod and squeeze your elbow or rub your head and you wouldn’t feel like a failure.

Elopement.

A sarcastic rumble undercuts the serenity that I seek.
Perceptions blanket everything, when can we at last be free?
To not possess but to be possessed by ourselves.
To explore that deepness within through introspection and rye.
There live within me GALAXIES and yet I can't muster the shine of a star.

Although, I have been known to, on occassion, outglow the harvest moon.

That is on my good days.
That is when I am me.

But when I am not me, I am a mirror for other light
Blue
Purple
A yellow-y green
Heaven knows I've been gray a time or two

When will we let that stop. When will be be ou rown rainbow to fluctuate as we please?
NOW I tell you that day is whenever you let it happen.
Let the fire of self-expression fuel you as you realize that there is more to life that being another person's light.

You are your own light. You go in circles but they spiral up and UP and UUUPPPPPP
Express the darkness.
Know that you have it.

Find peace with that.

As i wrote this I learned things I didn't know bothered me. Maybe it was because they rhymed but maybe it is because they have been trying to find a way out. Here I have given it a place to go. And I hope that I can give that sort of expression to all the various things inside of me.
