#200

Cutting the strings

one by one

to detach myself

from you.

#199

Numb

pressing keys with my thumb

 

the endless melody

to this twisted symphony

#198

Blissful nothingness is a blessing.

 

#197

I almost lost him.

Between hidden emotions and loaded words.

Deciphering the mess of what we had become, what we felt, and what we wanted.

Like finding life again, beneath an avalanche –

we had to dig ourselves out again

before we could take a breath.

#196

Breathe out.

Close your eyes.

Breathe in.

Open you heart.

#195

Constant pressure to be more.

Constant pressure to be better than before.

#194

I sit next to you, in bed

curled into the crevice where your arm meets your neck

here I softly lay my head.

 

We lay together softly

gently

watching the film, watching each other.

Softly, gently kissing

softly, gently living

with soft lips

and gentle hearts.

 

 

#193

I’m afraid to touch,

afraid to see

afraid to be

who you want me to be.

 

This is all too much

so I will flee

afraid to be

who you wanted to see.

#192

Why do we fight,

when we say that we care?

Is it simply fright,

that our love is not there?

#191

I write these words

to leave my print

on the world.
