#Hate #Love #Poetry
There is something to be said of a true friend One who will pull the knife from your back One who will stitch the wounds
My heart was paper now folded six times over to make it harder to tear I only hope that
I was like a rain cloud over a small garden and dammit if you weren’t that garden so full of flowers that I fell in love
There seems to be a drought in my… but who knows if it is the cause or the result of the war raging within me
Everyday brings a new death in three words give or take Some days I drown
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
Everyday I visit the only writers block I know to hone my words and wit and help them cut deeper into the skin
It must be a wednesday or a friday or any day at all for I am painfully aware of the wo… that consumes me
I wrote this while thinking of you so I guess you could say this poem is eight years in the making
So much time passes without feeling a single thing that I think I would give anything
I awoke in the dark next to you and more alone than ever I was amazed to hear your heart beating from
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
If I was once the tallest mountain your love was the wind that eroded me to nothing
There is poetry in nature better left to be spoken wordlessly by the breeze
I wish you had told me that on the good days kissing you would make me think that I knew what happiness was and on the bad days
