rain

when the rainy days get to be too much

i hope you look

and see me, us

wrapped in each other’s arms

promising our lives to each other

swirling around almost losing our grip, but

inevitably slamming into the slick pavement

together, alas

in the rainbow that follows.

when the rainy days get to be too much i look and i see you.

Honestly Speaking

the mirror seems to be my greatest enemy

I just don’t understand.

i feel like a black hole, incapable of holding any light.

every smile, every laugh

desperately trying to erase the sad thoughts lingering in the background.

masking every step, blending in

but no matter how hard i try

i still find myself spilling my guts, with this pen to this paper

telling it things i wouldn’t utter to a soul.

to be enough i tell myself:

loose a little weight, buy some cuter clothes, be anything but you because you will Never be enough

honestly speaking:

sometimes i’d be happier being anyone but myself
