I don’t get why my soul is traveling miles on a quest of a soul mate.

Entry 4, August 16, 2018

Your body is a game of connect-the-dots

My tongue is the pen

I trace the gaps between the small freckles that pepper your skin

Weaving into existence a picture of desire

Across your thighs

Over your hips

Or spread along the constellations that cover your chest

Entry 3, August 16, 2018

My nights are full of vodka burn

Of smoke filling my lungs

Our love is packaged now in an urn

Your image is still on my mind, name still on my tongue

You were my sunshine, my only sunshine

But you've been overcome by eclipse

Despite the fights and pain, for so long you were mine

And I'll always regret never tasting your lips

"Your first love never lasts"

Among the things you said from day one

But I never wanted you to be in my past

Yet I was the one who snuffed out my sun

You'll always be in my memory

But I can't regret this, I was out of energy

Entry 2, August 16, 2018

In my mind, you're high above me

You're in the heavens, perched on a pedestal of perfection

The recognition on your face is a blessing

A golden light that warms my chest

Your eyes are full of criticism now

And I'm falling lower

I shrink

From just a word, a look, an abandoned touch

I'm in the dirt

A million miles away from you

what exactly is life about

They say life is a blessing.

Life is a wonderful journey that will turn you into a beautiful, strong creature.

Life is a boat that takes you to the finest lake on the East Coast, or somewhere nice where the fields are green,  the sky is blue, and the grass is all covered in dandelions.

Where the water is running, The stars are shining, The hearts are smiling.

“Life can be hard, but it is worth fighting for”

Is it though?

“Things will get better, it’s only about time”

Will they really?

According to mine, I don’t think all statements; or, I’d rather call them, “assumptions” above, are true.

I’ve been dreading for 5+ years I’ve been on this rollercoaster ride that always goes down for far way too long

“Hold on a little longer, you’ll get off the ride before you know it”

When will i know, honestly?

Probably never.

I had high hopes for this once.

I got my hopes up way too high that my life would somehow let me breathe for a little Though, the more I found myself hoping, the more i felt the blood running on my aching neck

I felt sorry for myself but at the same time i constantly kept blaming myself, thinking I deserved all this mess. “Life is a blessing, it can’t be a curse. I am a curse.”

I woke up everyday waiting for the light at the end of the tunnel. Wishing that one day my life would be a little better. Wishing I’d be able to put on a genuine smile for once Wishing a pack of cigarettes would take my pain away.... or... my life away, simply coz i was that close to giving up.

But after all the tears, blood and sweat i’ve shed i get to the point where i know everything happens for a reason. A good cause. There’s always a room behind the closed door. A room that might light your heart on fire, whether it’s going to make you feel alive or burn you alive. It’s a surprise. There’s only one way to find out. It may take you forever to open it but God knows you will be able to. They key is in your hand now, darling It depends on you and your sanity.

Whether you want to keep walking and get closer to the door... Or stand still in the same room you’ve been in.. I’m not saying it’s going to be easy. Life is never going to be easy. Things wont get better. They will never get better. Complaining and feeling sorry for yourself is not getting you closer to the door, is it? And there’s a massive world you need to explore behind that door. And hey, you’ll find another door you need to open after this one, It’s a never ending cycle. A never ending battle. But you need to show who’s the boss here. Take control and open that goddamn door. Explore as much as you can. Feel as much as you can. Love as much as you can.

Let me in , Yes , I know it’s cliche But I mean it Let me in Invite me inside You know you can’t resist my sweet side It’s want you crave when your alone Someone to tell you your not wrong Someone to whisper all the lies But we both know they're empty inside But that’s not why I’m here I actually just forgot my sweatshirt Next time I’ll just go bare

Every step I take

Is another way I will succeed That is Indeed Life is short Like this here poem Remember in life Take your pace Every step I take Will indeed impact me I choose I chose Make it count Loses happen Indeed I will succeed My steps My pace Remember

[justagirlinlove]

My body is a vessel for my willpower Embrace hysteria Slide out and be whole Feel the way your cells bleed Understand the lines on the sidewalk and begin to comprehend the complexity of old world superstition
