I still wonder what’s inside the seemingly hollowed shell. Appears to be, shallow and unyielding, but I really think there is more to it than what’s in the surface. It may be just waiting to be discovered, and pry out of it’s lovely mysterious covering.

Empty shell

It saddens me to look at you now

your dark side left you living in a cave

an empty shell of the former you I used to know.

Your eyes has this permanent glaze that refuses

to focus on people that cares about you deeply.

It hurts me that you haven’t spoken in years.

You sit there in silence, most of the time you

blend in with the wall.You are right there but

you are missing.

It breaks my heart that I wasn’t there to help you.

figure things out about your illness until it was too late.

I am so sorry, I do not know how else to get through you.

You seem very far away and was gone a long time ago even before

we recognized the symptoms.

If only it is easy to erase you from my mind just like deleting a word I typed on my laptop. If only I could turn back time and hold my words in my tongue before saying them.

If only I could see you again, talk to you, hold you in my arms one more time. If only…

Star

Keep shining, you are the best star one could ever have

You can be every little thing you want to be or the biggest

thing you ever wanted to be. Keep shining your light

upon yourself and upon others. Remember… you have a

strong body and a strong mind. Keep shining!

Often…

He said “lets play princess and pirates where princess are being rescued by pirates because they are helpless and vulnerable”. I hesitated for a little bit to wrap my brain around what he said… Does he really think women are helpless? Does he really think women are vulnerable…?

Oh Geez! is this guy a male chauvinist? I hope not…because I really like him and because I want to see him often.

I seek asylum from myself

often hiding behind my poetry.

Desperately holding on to

the jagged edge

of my fragmented heart.

Constantly finding the strength to write wholeheartedly without fear of exposing every corner of my heart. -justme62
