Month: November 2020

been getting lost in the waves

tired of looking at tomorrows

want to be present in my todays

but time is calling

hoping you’re here, needing you here

my jagged heart was safe with the dunes

watched over by a tolerant moon

my island kept me sane

but your tide held me close

take me as I am, whoever I am

please don’t let me fall

I’m lost this time

lost in our time

without reasonable reason

my thoughts come crashing down

please take my heart home

its soul wants to go home

Can a day go by without questions

Can a day go by without answers  

Does everything have to be figured out today right here – right now

Can my nights be free of these in my dreams

Can the stars just shine and say I’ll be fine 

Does everything have to be solved right here – right now

Can I just know someday I’ll find my answers

Can I just wake and know my life is mine

Why am I asking questions when I know the answers, can’t I just feel for this life

Wanting answers for this soul

that are not yours to reply

But I’m choosing truths that are so shallow

Whose meanings are trying to reach so high

Wanting your time to borrow

To try and fill my bones

But I’m chasing a shadow that feels so hollow

Who’s looking for its home

Hoping the altitudes of this defiant heart

sentenced with those terminal emotions              

will withstand the quicksand of these notions

and feel for this life

with such beautiful rhythm –

you were fireworks, brilliant sparks, blinding me so beautifully

showing my solitary shadow walking along the saddest moonlight

can my falling heart ever find its way back to its peaceful prior existence?

always soaring sky high but forever falling into you

sleepless nights till my hearts’ winter ends

I’m missing our soul and it’s showing
