Literature Text

We are such irrelevant specks
in this gigantic, fascinating universe.
And when I think about it,
these anxieties are meaningless,
a waste of thought.
These worries are just
little figments of overthinking and
these fears will be
overlapped eventually.
Regret is just being unable to move on
and my pondering is
too often non-conclusive.

The star-speckled sky
looks down at me,
shining its beauty for me to ponder
and I wonder
if it was made just for us.
For our enjoyment,
for our amazement.

Because all we are is
irrelevant creatures
obsessed with ourselves.
We don't notice the sky for its beauty.
We are all, too often,
consumed by reality.

And as much as
I don't admit it,
I am so thankful
to be alive
under this
star-speckled sky.

Stained

You have intoxicated my greatest desire with your purity, with your gentleness. You have taken down my barriers with every spoken word. Why is it that this intoxication has saved me? How can I keep living with the shadows on my eyelids as well as you stained on my fingers? Somehow, your breath has set me free. Somehow, you have intertwined your courage with my insecurity. Somehow, you have become my definition of happiness. Your intoxication has saved me.

Star

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how we marvel where you are. A distant speck in edge of view, That is all we see of you. From your perspective what are we, dearest star blinking brightly? To us our Earth is blue and green, but what’s its color in your sheen? Yellow with joy or red with rage, black with darkness, gray with age? Or is there simply too much space in between to judge our race? Sparkling, spotlight little star, we wish upon on you from afar. You symbolize a distant dream; one day we may move towards your gleam. Can you see us where we are brilliant, beaming, little star? Astral body far away, have you a world for us to sta

You're a Clump of Stars~ A Poem

You're a clump of stars, And I'm forced to hang out with you, Burning my hands into your skin, Watching them turn from brown to blue You're a clump of stars, And I'm forced to admire your smile, Letting it suffocate and tear me apart, Even if it's just for a little while You're a container of nebulas, And I'm forced to carry you around, I want to scream and let you go, But my throat won't make a single sound You're a teaspoon of stardust, And I'm forced to be by your side, I didn't have the guts to tell you that I loved you, And now all that I'm feeling is something I hide You're a bathtub of falling stars, And my heart is what

Moss Green

Moss green fence slats lay decaying in the backyard, half dried from recent rain. The squirrels rustle across dead leaves, fleeing barking dogs and near-silent cats prowling for a quick meal. Pollen saturates the air; mushrooms grow in the shade of fallen branches as the fuzz of lichen creeps over a trunk felled in favor of a wooden fence.

You make me ill to my core. It's the way you curl yourself beneith my skin and suck the love and passion from my bloodstream like a sun starved flower. You sit benith the open sky in your flowerpot, adorned with my words. I bathe you in the things you need, but yet you still rob my bones. You betray my trust when I need you most. Then you dissapear, like some godforsaken ghost into an early morning fog and all you leave behind is dew-drops on the lashes that protect my eyes. When you kiss, you consume. You burn like a forest fire, searing and violent, across the tips of

"You left your watch here" This place has become a store house for bad memories Except when it comes to you because the only thing you've ever left here was me and now I'm stuck here waiting for you to take me home But you cant There's a whole lot of distance between us, gaps that not even the sun knows how to swallow up We are mismatched cookie cutter pieces stripped and sewn to the same heart Your patterned like A Clockwork Orange- all violence and vulgar slurs while I'm shaped a little like Happpythankyoumoreplease- all I want is your love.

Amongst the Stars

I could always handle you when you were cold water dripping down the curve of my spine and kissing the heat from my shoulder blades but when you wound around my legs and tried to drip off the tips of my fingers I had to stop you and press you back against my sternum Your kisses tasted like flower petals with edges more jagged than razorblades but I never minded when you left me raw and aching Instead I pulled your lips to my throat and let you kiss away the stardust and peel the paint from my skin- You always said I was like an old house and benith the cheep wallpaper that covered my frame were hidden secrets. I told you they wer

So I really needed to write something simple, but thought-inspiring.
The only thing I really have left to say is look up once in a while
