I can’t describe the sound of her voice
The music in her hugs
Or the rose pedals in her walk
But I imagine that her words
Are like fig leaves
That dance to the sound of opinions that refuse to be silenced
The conviction in her sentences
Can make an ocean question beauty of its own…
I’ve been told that I give bad hugs
People say it feels like I’m trying to escape
It’s probably because I am
Secretly I get really nervous
Every time someone gets close enough to hear me breathe
I have an odd fascination with things like sand castles and ice sculptures
I assume it’s because I usually find myself dedicating time to things that will only last a few moments
I guess that’s why I fall in love with things that will never love me back
and I know that sounds crazy but it’s easier than it seems
and to be honest I think it’s safer that way
you see relationships often remind that i’m not afraid of heights or falling
but I am scared to death of everything thats going to happen the very moment
that my body hits the ground
I’m clumsy
Yesterday I tripped over my self-esteem
Landed on my pride and it shattered like a Iphone with a broken face
Now I can’t even tell who’s trying to give me a compliment
I’ve never been in the military but I have this purple heart
I got it from beating myself up over things I can’t fix
Some days i treat my body like a costume
and I feel like a mascot for a school no body wants to go to
I know this sounds weird but I wonder what my bed sheets say about me when i’m not around
I wonder what the curtains would do if they found out about all the things i’ve done behind their back
I have a hamper that’s over flowing with really really looud mistakes
and a grave yard in my closet
I’m afraid if i let you see my skeletons
you’d grind my bones into powder and get high off my fault lines.
I often forget my skin in not a panic room
I enjoy frozen yogurt, people watching and laughing for absoluting no reason
but I don’t allow myself to cry as often as I need to
I have solar power confidence
And a battery operated smile
My hobbies include
Editing my life story
Hiding behind metaphors
And trying to convince my shadow
That I’m someone worth following
so afraid of getting hurt tt u had walls built up so high, they’d’ keep others out. little did you know tt they’d keep u in too…#truestory
ahh second guesses and broken melodies. when will they go away?
colour my world with the chaos of trouble.
“You are a sentence with no punctuation. A kaleidoscope full of colors that I don’t remember learning in elementary school. Your voice, is the sound I’ve been looking for my entire life.
Your smile is the only sunrise worth setting my alarm clock early enough to see. If I could, I would…
