Nostalgia

.

The sound of crushed dry leaves

A childhood of adventures

A long hike

A packed lunch

How I wish it never ends

Period.

The Findings

How do I know if my thoughts are real?

Vacuum Space

You were made for me
You were to fill my loneliness
A huge blackness that grows
And you grew to fill it.

Why did I tell you to go?
I remember my resolve back then
Yet here I am dwindling
But you won't come back to me anymore.

Worth

I love him more than the world
Yet there is nothing I can offer besides love
And in this I feel unworthy
Anxious of when comes a time
someone offers him more than affection
Afraid when he realizes that I have nothing
So I shy myself away
When he took no notice
I felt all my worries are true.

The Creep's Growth

I wanted to tell it to someone
When I'm shivering at night
I wanted someone to hug me tight
In their arms I want to break down

Promises, hope, assurance yet
When I look, they're never there
The ever noticeable absence
Feeds the growth of my fears

So I took no notice
And thread this bravely
Even if I know it is a front
While in some distance, the glass slowly breaks.

Whispers

Moonlit covered bedroom
on a restless night
A black reflection
a poisonous conversation.

Yet to be Us

If someone were to ask

I would say I like you

I would say it unflinching

Confident, smiling

But I can't say love
