• I Used To Be Scared

  I used to be distant, Shut down, Keep my feelings to myself,I used to be vague, Aloof,All because I used to be scared,Scared to be my true self,Worried I was unlovable,Terrified to let someone in,All because I used to be scared,But the 180 is real,The shift in my focus,Knowing my worth, What I bring to…

• The Empty Side of the Bed

  Some days I enjoy the peace and quiet,Other days the silence can be so very loud in my mind, Not having someone to share the mundane parts of everyday life,Someone to wrap their arms around you,Cacooning you after a rough day,Having deep, connecting conversations, Instead, I am laughing into my phone, when in reality,I wish…

• August

  Your slow and winding ease,As you open yourself up to the upcoming chill,Change is in the breeze,And in the falling leaves,Sunsets seem more nostalgic,Lakes more reflective,Where has the time slipped away to?The breeze of change is in the air,Along with our wistful dreams,So hopeful and yet so assured,Will the feeling of rebirth fill us,Or will…

• Glass Heart

  I have a gift for you, I have given it much thought,To find a way to show to you,Just how much I feel about you,This gift isn’t one you can find in a store,Yet it took me some time to gather and collect,Parts of it, dented and possibly bruised,I am handing over my glass heart,Trying…

• Meaningless Sorry

  You come here, palm outstretched,I admit, I have been waiting for this moment and, Now that it’s here, it is nothing like I imagined, As I look around to be sure I didn’t make it up, I realise just how empty your sorry is, A true apology requires a change in behaviour, Done in person,…

• Always Second Place

  

  No matter how much I seem to try,How slow or fast I take it,How much I protect or throw my heart at someone,The fact of the matter still remains,I am always in second place,Left behind and forgotten like a bad memory,Thought of when the dust settles and other options don’t pan out,Second place as if…

• Red Balloon

  I keep squeezing my grip,Like a red balloon on a windy day, Fearing if I let you go, I will never see you again, But though it pains me,I cannot keep holding on for an ending which will never come,A love you will never show to meI realize you don’t value me enough to stop…

• I Adore You

  I genuinely hate to admit this,The tough exterior of my heart,Begins to push back against the melt,I can’t help but adore you,All that you are,Your brooding intensity,Your quiet loneliness,Your deep desire to be better,Your passion,I adore you,I can’t help the allure,The push and pull,The palpitation of my heart when I hear your voice,The light giggle…

• Good Enough

  I need to know why I wasn’t good enough,Why I wasn’t worth fighting for? Crossing oceans, losing sleep over and grandiose romantic gestures, Why wasn’t I good enough to merit your heart? What was missing for you? I keep tripping over thoughts of you, Circling my mind like hungry sharks, Pangs of emotions I want…

• Trente Huit

  Thirty eight finds me in a peculiar place,Balancing feelings of confusion and dissatisfaction,With gratitude and motivation,Thirty eight finds me restless and unfulfilled,Wondering what’s next, yet still ruminating on the past,Surprised there are still things to figure out,Equally irritated that feelings of self-doubt still boil up,Thirty eight has me excited for the future,Still working towards those…
