Those who uplift us
Will not always stay by your side
They will find who they belong to
However much you long.
More than this
At a crossroads
Where still you hold my hand
Because I’ve asked so little
And given so much…
And yet I do not want to pull you along
Because i know you’d let go
The moment i asked for more than this.
Unworthy
And with your one short sentence
I realized.
Here I was again with
Another one
Who didn’t think I was
Worth his heart.
My vulnerability
My vulnerability, it lies naked in my verse and though my heart at times seems not to share as openly or soar. Its heady days of climbing those dizzying heights seem but a faded fragment of naivete… I seem to have found the courage to live in the moment and not be as wary of where it all may lead… Because even as my vulnerability stands bare… It no longer needs to feel ashamed.
Locked up Heart
“You can’t love someone into loving you”
And yet I cannot help but try…
I wish I could lock my heart up as tight as you do yours…
But I can’t
So I have less of it each time.
To a close
And as it comes to a close
A bud picked off before its bloom
I sit and wonder
Why does silence slice so deeply?
Moth to Flame
In the scintillating swirls of lust
I wonder if there will be care?
As a moth to a flame
I want the same
But I yearn for his heart
As much as I melt for his touch.
Accept
Why the tears escape as I pack away my secret desires knowing they cannot exist in the journey i partake…Heart please accept already what Mind knew so long ago.
Wanting
Wanting to be wanted
A desire ever left wanting
Wontonly wondering why
I want like a waxing moon
When I’m wanted by a waning one.
Libra Heart
A Libra’s heart is never steady
It oscillates wildly
And needs placating often.
The pros and cons bicker back and forth
The dewy glow of idealism becomes dampened until it dries up yet again.
The scales tip precariously at the slightest wind of plausible change
And there i waver at your whim.
