I look at my eyes
and I don't see anything in them
they're just dead
the little girl sparkle is extinguished
the flame of hope is tired
and the brightness is done caring
my eyes are dead
and they reflect my heart
I lost myself while loving you,
Forgot the things I used to do.
Now in the dark, I softly see—
I don’t miss you,
I just miss me.
Never was she the type to chase
For if she moved an inch
Failure would take her place.

Her footprints have molded the soil
Marking where she always waits
An illustration of her mortal foil.

To leave would mean to miss
What could finally be coming
To bring eternal bliss.

There she will wait
Until the earth swallows her whole
Where she sealed her fate.
Don't be afraid to care about someone
It’s always better
to be completely alone
than to feel alone
in a group of people.
Bright moon above me
Ocean waves wash tears away
Warm breeze blankets me
Modern heiku
I wish I was water

Then I could run faster than any thought
And any feeling
In any language

And I could carry any weight
No matter the strength missing
In me

And I could always move forward
As long as there is a shape for me to take
I would take it

If I'm not water
I am a shape
And I could be stuck in one place forever
what is love
I do not know
maybe I am destined
to never know
it's touch
There is so much more
That I want to see
All around the world
And in between

Tastes, sights
And places afar
Where ever friendly faces
And opening arms

So much more
To be consumed
This planet we're on
Is a fruitful womb

A meal a beer
A sample of the yield
Blackberry, blueberry
Strawberry fields

St. Ambrose Bees
Sweet honey mead
I want to sample
Every good thing I see!

   I am that
