Feeling a multitude of emotions, that feel jumbled inside. So I thought I'd try to articulate it in a poem.
Trying to figure out This thing called love Fighting you for no reason Thinking you’ve committed treason Fearing what my imagination shows…
Dancing in the dark Between the river & the spark Afraid of the sun Of becoming undone Holding my fist in the air
Flirting w/a monster Speaking words so sinister Amber eyes gleaming Until I wail screaming Finger painting in condiments
Running into the eye of a storm Breaking promises that I’ve sworn Wearing a lightening cloak Picking up psyches that I’ve brok… Grey skies
Last Saturday night We never said our goodbyes We left behind our little white li… Rubbing cheek to cheek With a smile & a wink
I fell in love by the sea My heart was swept away by the tid… Only to be set free Riding waves And raging torrents
Crying over you In my dreams Chasing you Through countless streams Traveling from state to state
You gave me a promise I relied everything on you In time you let me down You distort my love for you Into a ravenous wolf, a clown
Prolonging the inevitable Wanting this feeling to linger Succumbing to the infallible Feeling like we’re strangers Staring at me w/a dormant gaze
I was a vixen Fixen to make A man outta you Drooling in a pool Made for fools
I wished upon a star And here you are Standing right in front of me Like kismet Writing words with little meaning
Painting skies In hazy eyes Writing lullabies Watching truth become a lie Hungry for a morsel of honesty
Yelling for no reason Overreacting because I love you Accusing me of treason I can’t stand you Ignoring me
Reaching in the frigid cold Searching for a hand to hold To give me hope To give me strength In the hallows of my mind
Floating in a wave of obscurity My heart is a world of secrecy Giving my hopes to the wind Relinquishing my dreams for clarit… I never meant to hurt you
