If There Is Someone
If there is someone for everyone,Then why am I alone?Why has my heart befallen such loneliness and pain?The tales and stories suggest fairytales and romance,When all that seem to cross my path are the undecided and romantic crooksIf there is truly someone for everyone,Then I suppose I have lacked a heartbeat worth enough to quicken,Kissing […]

Blowing On Dandelions
Sitting in a field of wildflowers, Wondering if the age old tradition still stands, As the wind whips past my tear soaked face, I snatch a dandelion and dig deep,I want this one wish to come true, It’s been a while since I have indulged in childish abandon,But my heart has been heavy lately and […]

Martyr
I look in the mirror and I ask myself,What is it about me that isn’t enough?What vibe do I give off,That people seem to get from me,Are ways in which they can take advantage?Am I a martyr?I open my heart up to someone new,Feel feelings of hopefulness,Yet all I seem to get is hurt.You think […]

Melancholic & Unfeeling
There’s a quiet loneliness I feel,The slow, calm numbing,The one that eats away at you,I don’t tend to notice it at first,Then you feel the sudden pang,When images of couples come across your gaze,You don’t have that,You may never have that,You have given your heart one too many times,It is now tattered and forlorn,A step […]

I Get It Now
I feel like I was walking in a haze before you,Stepping along, never really seeing anything at all,Dull colours and muted sounds,Tasteless foods and placated experiences,But, I get it now,Everything seems brighter, My heart beats out of my chest for you, You fascinate me, You stimulate me,You challenge me,I get it now,Every song is about […]

Lines
I want to know the details of you being you, I want to study the creases on your face,Each sun kissed freckle on the bridge of your nose, I want to hold the palm of your hand,And draw out its lines from memory,I want to trace the shape of your body with each fingertip, Without […]

Life
What is a life well-lived?What moments mark and define it as such?Is it the people we encounter?The places that take our breath away?What makes a life well lived?Is it the memories we make?The missed opportunities?The moments of regret?The words left unsaid?What makes a life well-lived?Is it the times we went against the grain?The paths we […]

Relish
I am that person, I never want to slow down and relish the feeling of something new,I want to drink it all up,Get to the very last drop of it before something ruins the moment,When given a sweet, I do not let it melt on my tongue, I immediately take a bite and finish it […]

Desire
The lot of us who avoid it,Versus the ones of us who are constantly chasing it,It complicates things so much,Pursuits that will never bear fruit,Seeking out whom and what they cannot have, Promising things they will never be able to provide,Shunning the hearts within reach for the ones they can never obtain,Mixing feelings with pursuits […]

A Letter To My Exes…
I wrote this poem about 2-3 years ago and never seemed to have the gumption to press publish, since none of them read my blog posts and I’m petty and haven’t remained friends with any, I think it’s only fitting to post it. The timing of this is really not strategic at all, I simply […]
