I’m drowning

in the feelings that keep bubbling up inside me when your around.

Your eyes always hold me in place until I fear I won’t ever move again.

Your voice so smooth it melts me like chocolate on a hot day!

I want to have peace with you so the light inside my heart shines so bright like a flashlight.

Guiding you through the tough things in life.

I want to bring you back from the darkness and hope it will be a permanent thing.

I don’t want to lose you again for in the end.

Moving on without you is something I don’t want to picture happening again.

I want to feel safe in your arms for a lifetime.

I want my words to be forever inscribed in your mind.

I’m ready for you and everything that you stand for and everything you will stand for one day.

Feeling

uneasy with the ways things are going.

I can’t seem to focus on the things going on around me right now.

The candle light is flicking on and off and everything seems to be blowing in the wind.

The storm is coming and I can only hope it will blow through my life

and take all the bad things and people with it.

But, one can only hope for many storms do take away the bad and leave me with a lesson I will not want to learn again.

That feeling of happiness yet sadness at the same time is coming over me and, I want to embrace it and breathe it all in then slowly than let it go.

And accept my life is about to go in a whole another direction and I have not a lot of  time to prepare myself.

But like the wind blowing through my life I will just go with the flow and hope it will all work out in the end.

To construct a bridge back to you

To when my words were meaningful

When life was a challenge and I was willing to risk it all for not just you but for myself as well.

Was the moment I knew I had to leave behind the dead wood in my life.

And focus on the new plants growing and becoming more aware of everything.

I was so relieved to let go of the vines holding me back and to branch out.

In to a new direction that felt right and no matter where you go I’m always in your heart.

Daily Prompt: Echo

Your words echo through my mind when I think of you.

Your words so true and seem to keep me going when nothing else matters.

The echoes of your words turn into my hope and inspiration.

I always stop and reach out to you when nothing seems to be going right or the echoes become too  much for me to handle.
