#Days #LifeWeeks
If I was once the tallest mountain your love was the wind that eroded me to nothing
Life is an uphill struggle Nothing comes easy and only hard work pays off I don’t like hard work was my 5 word protest
Everyday I visit the only writers block I know to hone my words and wit and help them cut deeper into the skin
Under the weight of life I forget how to breathe and I feel suffocated I hesitantly make peace with the world
I get my silence in five minute doses before the plane overhead brings me back to earth
I feel empty unceasingly until you come along and fill my heart to bursting
I say hello and you say nothing You may hear me you may even think of a response
Autumn sneaks in preceding dormancy Leaves take on new beauty with nothing left in them but a fa… Individually insignificant
Passion doesn’t arise from 12 point Times New Roman but rather from ink on one page and another
The hands of this watch haven’t moved since the last time you did and I’m not sure if I’m ready to hear the ticking
Everyday I lived out a song written just for you But you could
I write sharp words with a sharper knife on page after page of what might as well be the skin of my back
I would write a sweet poem and title it with your name if I loved you at all
Everyone sees god in a different light but I was born without eyes
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
