Poetry and short stories with a few daily quotes here and there!
If that’s what you want
Because I know what I want doesn’t matter
As the tears fall down my face and the rain pours down outside my window.
My mood and the weather connecting in a way
You and I couldn’t lately.
To soul that connected on a common issue now broken apart.
And still the answer to why it went down this way will never be answered.
Because I’m gone and you were to late.

Comes and goes
Like the wind of the day
It blows nicely at the beginning but soon dies down.
Bringing nothing but the heat
That melts me like chocolate on super hot day.
The hope of a cool day to come.
Is like hoping for more sleep and actually getting some.

You in felt like I had finally let down that wall.
That had kept me safe all these years.
I didn’t know why I was so drawn to you all those years ago.
Maybe it was your smile or your kind eyes.
All I know is I trusted you then as I do now
Even though things are short and stained I still cherish all that our friendship stands for.
And I hope your doing better and that we will see each other again someday.

Not someone worth talking to?
Am I just always going to be the one who supports you but gets no support back.
Is there something wrong with me?
Or am I just someone everyone just gets tired of quickly?
Will, it ever be different for me or will this cycle be around forever?
Those are questions I can’t answer now
And well no one else seems to notice anymore that things aren’t the same or they never really cared.
I’m just a space-filler until someone better comes along.
Bringing just the right amount of entertainment that no one notices me walking out the door.

This Thursday writing prompt ~ Darkness
Is rolling in and I know the light in me has a great battle ahead of it.
Will the darkness win this time for I am far too tired.
To keep these battles going and so this time I will trust that the light in me is strong enough.
And this dark cloud in my life will past too.
But, the truth is I’m hoping for a lighter situation after this.
For this season has been crazy and the relief that there will be a joy is feeling harder to believe.
For sometimes seeing something is all you hope for.
Because words can fade but memories last a little longer.
