When there's nothing left to say

It's funny the way things play out,
the way things fall together or fall apart.

It's funny the way people anticipate
when they have nothing
to look forward to.

It's funny the way people make
the same mistakes time and again.

It's funny the way some can love so hard
and some can't love enough.

And it's funny when good can come out
of so much misfortune.


waiting for my moment to come, everything has come undone

I wonder if you're still here

I find myself looking for you,
trying to recognize your face.
I wonder if you're still here,
if you remember now.

I want to remember you,
to know you again.

To look into your eyes
and see more than the vast blankness.

To hear you shuffle down the hall,
or to have you tuck my hair behind my ears
just
once

more.


I'm sorry I wasn't there

It's a funny way of measuring things

when two things are spoiled, another is salvaged.
And yet, what is salvaged is worth more than both combined.

When a door closes, a window opens.


I missed you

happy like puppies

there's this appeal
to those who are friendly,
those who make you feel welcome and wanted.

you remember the desire to follow, to bask
and dance in my sunlight.

walk with me;
come play.

no matter how old or young,
some will always have a light that draws you in.


if i could, i'd only wanna make you smile
if you wanna stay with me a while

Insecurity

People just don't care enough

not as much as I do.



what if I told you your tears haven't been ignored

Somedays

It's hard when you realize
what you're waiting for
is never going to happen,

and that
you're going to have to accept
the hand you've been dealt.


waiting on the world to change

get with it

get personal
get crazy
get high
get drunk
get scared
get laid
get close
get up
get down


when everything is going well, its scary
because you're just waiting for something to go wrong
