the one

There's lots of people for everyone,

But only one person for you.

So, whose yours?

Because I think you might be mine.

fish on land

This morning, I swam through a sea of pigeons. They weren't pleased by the ripple I caused in passing through.

fallen crown

once, there was a girl
who sat on top of a wall
she never looked down
she was too scared to fall

from atop her tower
she looked up to the sky
while everyone danced below her
time passed this girl by

then, the girl heard a voice
on the cloudiest day
she didnt dare look down
but she heard the voice say:

"little girl, little girl
please come down with me
i promise, it'll be lovely
you'll never feel so free"

the girl thought about the option
for a minute or so
and decided freedom wasnt worth the risk...

shed never really know

a tornado

you and i, we are standing on a porch, looking out into the distance.
we are smiling.
its warm and sunny, but there is a summer-haze, so we cant see much very clearly...
just what is right in front of us.
we've heard about a tornado en-route and we are standing in its path.
we can feel it looming.
the air is so heavy and the day is just dragging on and on.
we wait.
we wait for it to hit.
but we aren't scared.
we refuse to move.
we know this tornado is going to ruin our lazy day together.
we are probably going to have to do some damage control after it hits...
but we ready for it to come crashing down on us and everything around us.
we are ready.
always.

thats us.
we are the waiting game.
we cant control what we know is coming, but we can see.
and we want so badly to control it all.
and we try to.
we try very hard.

well, just so you know,
i'll never give up.
because i'll never tire of you.

beauty

goal for today:

find the beauty in everything. and, if i cant find beauty, i will acknowledge where there is beauty to be had.

a regrettable encounter

Every once in a while,
maybe only even once in forever,
you meet someone who changes your life.

matter

"The world will go to hell if you let it."

Two boys sat on their skateboards and blazed.

"See, the way I look at it, as long as I stand up and care about something (the boy stood up, for effect), I'll matter."

A cloud of smoke formed a thick barrier between the orator and his audience of one.

lost and found

To lose myself with you would be a great way to find myself.
To find myself with you would be a great way to lose myself.
