Just Like The Rest

Heart pounding
Smile widening
Cheeks turing red
Giggles climb up my throat
I stare 
You smile back
I melt
We talk
We laugh
Everyday I seek you out
Eager to see your bright brilliant eyes
Hear your voice
Hold your attention
I feel a connection
I hope it forever lasts

Such a little girl am I 
Dreaming up a fantasy
With you as my prince
Me your princess
Where we live happilyever after

I need to snap out of it
Everytime I reach out to someone
Their feelings about me are short lived
Always ready to go after someone else
Someone different
When here I have poured my heart out to you
Only to have you throw it away
Love looks easy to obtain
When in reality
Happily Ever After
Is just a fantasy
Unreal
I live in a world of reality
It is harsh
And cruel

Instead of my prince
You turned out
To be just like the rest
An
Inconsiderate
Disloyal
Lying
Rude
Hormonal
Boy

  • Awaiting An Invitation

    Tree limbs dance in
    the breeze of baited breath,
    roots threaten to break ground zero.
    time;
    too much
    too little
    only the trees understand 
    me

    glass stregthens
    mirrors melt
    clouds converge and darkness reigns

    Sentenced

    I am guilty

    The bars which restrain me
    are but my own fault

    I am guilty

    The lifeless walls
    frozen, unfeeling
    yield no give as I fight to break free

    My crimes:
    To want,
    the stars

    Only A Memory

    The wind
    brushes my cheek, with a kiss. 
    Neck craned, my eyes
    skim the sky in bliss

    The scene before me,
    a canvas to interpret,
    I stare, deep within the soul of each star
    this game I refuse to forfeit.
