| 4/23/12- Candle Burning (for Brian)
Every time I close my eyes
I can see you
Standing there, we’re closing space
As my lips come find you.
For a moment all is lost
And we are separated
From ourselves, from our bodies
Two people floating.
Nothing can interfere
We’re invincible here
Safe in your arms
Shivering from the cold.
Your body blocks the wind
The world within
Nobody else matters to me
Can’t feel the glass shatter.
I don’t want to let go
Because I know
That all will come rushing back in
Water overflowing.
The people staring
The world pretending to care
Lies, cheating, and despair
I don’t want to remember.
So let’s close our eyes
And slip away
And never wake up from this slumber
Sleep all day.
We can feel the sun
Warm on our cheeks
Bright is the sun
And so are these sheets.
Can we please lay right here
For a moment longer
The world is cold, bitter, old
And I don’t want to go out there.
We are here today
Don’t want to worry about yesterday
Or even tomorrow
Please stay.
Winter has gone and it’s about summer
Friends have gone away
A new page
But I am here to stay.
Where I feel safe
Safe from harm
And the monsters that find me
When I’m alone.
But with you I’m home
I’ll be the flame to your candle
If you just light my way
Night and day.
So just close your eyes
Don’t make a sound
Just the sound of our breathing
Two hearts beating.
Safe and sound
The here and now
Don’t you let go;
This new light I have found.
You’re everything
Can’t you feel my heart beat
Incomplete, when I’m not around you
So let’s close our eyes
And not wake up until the world ends.

| I made it to 238 days of being single! But I am now happy to tell you, that I am no longer single. I am going on Day 9 of being in a relationship and I am absolutely LOVING every moment of it. This poem is dedicated to you Brian, I'm missing you already! <3
4/21/12- The Lion is Brave, And So Are We
It’s times like this
When I miss you the most.
Nights like this
When I just want to hold you close.
Because the nights seem long
Without you by my side
Because when you’re gone
The sadness comes to life.
Like a lion’s roar
That I can’t ignore
A burning in my chest
I can’t put to rest.
It’s times like this
When I want to feel your warmth
Nights like this
That I long for your sweet kiss.
Lips locked our hearts on fire
Can’t put out the flame
We’re only burning brighter
Baby, we’ll burn this whole city down.
Like a lion’s roar
That I can’t ignore
A burning in my chest
I can’t put to rest.
It’s times like this
When I breathe your scent
Nights like this
When I just want to breathe you in.
Because the nights seem so long
Without you by my side
Because when you’re gone
The sadness comes to life.
Like a lion’s roar
That I can’t ignore
A burning in my chest
I can’t put to rest.
It’s times like this
That I really miss you a lot
Nights like this
I feel like a sinking boat.
But when I close my eyes
I can see your face
And in that moment the waters are calm
And I am not afraid.
Because no matter how far away
That you may be
You’ll always be here
Footprints in my memory.
You’re like a lion’s roar
That I can’t ignore
A burning in my chest
That I don’t want to put to rest.
Because you’re everything I want
And everything I need
You’re the very air that I breathe
And because of you I am free.
I am the sun shining in your window
Every morning when you wake up
I am the blue bird singing
I am the coffee in your morning cup.
The joy, the happiness that lifts you up
I am the ocean, I am the storm
I am yesterday, and tomorrow, and the future,
And forever, and eternity.
But right now I am just a memory, so close your eyes
And remember me, because in that moment, I am not so far away as it may seem.

Astronomers 4/10/12
I came to this town not knowing anyone
A young mind and soul prepared to learn.
How was I to know that all my stars would soon align?
When I found you in my constellation, I knew it was a sign.
Like Romeo and Juliet we were destined to be
From that moment your eyes met mine and you set me free.
We studied the stars and the galaxies
But even clearer than the telescope, I could see you and me.
If you were an astronaut, we would fly to the moon
But time is passing by so quickly, and much too soon.
I haven’t seen your ocean blue eyes for a while
And I can feel my heart breaking, slowly as the earth spins.
The seasons are changing and the leaves are green again
Spring is here, and I am left longing for you my friend.
Your quirky jokes, and your attitude
Words cannot even begin to express my deep gratitude.
Like the song by Bruno Mars, Talking to the Moon
I sing to it every night, just trying to get to you
Because I miss you, my beloved, where do you go?
Where the sea meets the sand, and the lighthouse glows.
I hope we meet again, because I know this is not the end
This is only the beginning of our lives my long-lost friend.
Because how was I to know that all my stars were to align?
From that moment I found you in my constellation, I knew it was a sign.

The Waiting Post – 4/10/12
Calm like the sea
But I’m a raging storm
Lighthouse glows
Come find me.
Message in a bottle
But you’re hard to read
Encrypted notes
That I’m trying to see.
Stained glass
Is a mystery
Beautiful pictures
But what do they mean?
Like a kaleidoscope
All the colors
Twists and turns
I want to learn.
Burning like a fire
A flame that never dies
My desire
The flames are rising higher.
Fire and ice
You burn while I shiver
Silver and gold
Flowing like a river.
The bird and his song
And we hum along
Trees sway
And I whisper, “Please stay.”
More colors and the sun sets
Time to go, time for rest
I’ll be here waiting when tomorrow comes
With the wake of the morning sun.
Our feet are quick
Telling us to run
But our hearts say stay
And my feet don’t move from the place in which I am standing.

3/17/12- The Time Capsule
I closed my eyes and waited
I waited for a long time
Waited until the sand ran out
And then I watched it a second time.
I closed my eyes and listened
I listened for a long time
Listened until the rain ran dry
And I listened until I could not cry.
I closed my eyes and dreamed
I dreamed for a long time
Dreamed until I could disappear
And I disappeared inside the dream.
I closed my eyes and started running
I ran for a long time
Ran until I couldn’t run anymore
And then I started again.
I closed my eyes and found you
I found you just sitting there
You had been sitting there for a long time
And I watched you for a long time.
We closed our eyes and just sat there
We sat there for a long time
We waited until the sun went down
And then we opened our eyes.
We didn’t have to say a word
Because we already knew
Everything there was to say
Had already been said
And with that we nodded and parted our ways
And said goodbye to all our yesterdays, “See you tomorrow.”
I closed my eyes and waited
I waited for a long time
Waited until you came around
And I watched you come right out of the clouds.
And as you took your seat right next to me
I didn’t say a word, and neither did you
Because we already knew that everything was and is how it was supposed to be from now until eternity.

3/17/12- The Island
I love the pieces
That do not fit together.
I fix my hair
On days that upset with the weather.
My clothes do not match
And I never carry cash
But I never go broke
Because I’ve got a hidden stash.
I talk quietly
And I listen to words
I’d rather not speak
Then pretend I’m being heard.
I take notes
And I notice small things
So I won’t forget
When the thunder strikes and with rain it brings.
I keep to myself
But I want to let you in
Only it’s hard to sometimes
When I feel like I’m the only one giving in.
I don’t ask for much
And I don’t expect it in return
I am polite when I ask
And I always wait my turn.
But sometimes I am human
Sometimes the other me shows
The part of me I hide away
The part that only a few knows.
I worry too much
There’s birds nesting in my stomach
There’s spiders in my hair
And I can’t sleep again tonight.
I toss and turn and won’t sleep
My mind is full but I cannot think
My dreams do not comfort me,
But how could you have known?
That I am just a fragment of a whole
I’ve buried myself so deep
And sometimes I can’t see through the window
The words don’t come when I try to speak.
I am the pieces
That do not fit together
I am the eye of the storm
Upsetting the weather.
I need you to calm my sea
I need you to come and rescue me
This will be my last message in a bottle
And I hope it reaches you in time.
Because I have been here all this time,
And I’ll still be waiting here until the day I die.
