Out of Nowhere

Everything is so familiar
Like an ocean breeze
Smelling of salt, warmed
With the summer’s heat
As if you never leave
The memories still vivid
Mixing of good and bad
Heart and mind spinning
Lingering feelings of nostalgia
The last few weeks of summer,
We slowly divulge as the
World gets back to work
You were cold, but kept me warm
As my rose-tinted glasses
Clear, let me relish what’s near
As I dream of you in the ocean’s breeze.

Rose-Tinted

Even
You
Can’t
Get
Me
Out
Of
This
Vision

Sometimes It Just Takes a Little Reminder

I was reminded
Of what it means
To be human again

Before we became a
World full of Cynicism
And non-believers.

When it was second nature
To take someone
At their word.

When the word hope
Was more than just
A laughable concept.

When people
Were believed
To be able to change.

I was reminded.
That deep down,
I’m still that human being.

Even if I forgot for a little while.

Not worth a Title

Conflicted
Conversation running through my head
Like a movie
Voices are haunting my dark bedroom
So much so
That I can’t form any more words
For this insipid poem

Frustration

An Alter Ego

Been battling feelings
Of the sinful nature
Been rolling around
In skin that’s not mine
It is so freeing
To be self-indulging
Knowing they are
Throwing me side glances
For something is peculiar
Must give up
The addiction
Of living as my alter ego
Crawl out into
my old world
Never forgetting
The feeling of sin
upon my skin.

A Heavenly Spell

Come
Help me forget
What I don’t want to remember
With a touch so soft
Lips lead me into a distant world
Turn my head into a foggy morning
With nibbles and tickles
Bury me deep in sensations
So my eyes will never yearn to open

Sleepless Thoughts

I sat talking across from the person that knows me too well.

She is the mirror that I can’t avoid.

I have been fooling myself for so long,

I don’t normally get away with it this long.

Trying to justify my inner feelings

 

It’s normally a breeze to put feelings on paper,

But I’m having a hard time admitting those words.

 

“You are not that type of person.”

How do you ignore that statement?

They are words that seep into your psyche.

 

None of this makes any sense.

But I suppose it shows the truth,

Of how my head is truly working.

 

One last thought before I go,

 

I want to forgive you,

But I’m no longer that person

I’m the person you made me become.

 

I don’t know how to change that.

Embracing Comfort

To me
You’re just a blur
In a picture
That won’t focus
Giving a migraine
Of longing pain
That digs into
My one weakness
That is always
Looking back
Giving the comfort
To know
You are close enough
For me to go
Running back
To you
So I can
keep walking
forward.

Heart Always Knows

Sometimes when I’m writing
I don’t know who or what
My words are about
Like my heart is writing for me
Until my head can catch up
