Standard

One, two,

I am going to move today.

3, 4,

Maybe if I just roll over.

Watching my arm dangle

Off the edge of the bed,

Thinking of letting myself fall.

I wish Narnia

Was in my wardrobe.

I used to hide in the closet when I was little.

I felt safe in the dark hidden behind

The garments.

(If I was out of sight I could be forgotten)

Then,

At night I would get comfy in my blankets and plan my

Dreams before I closed my eyes.

I planned every detail;

which characters would join me, where we would go,

Who would be friend or foe.

It was fantastical.

I was usually a character in a book I read

And

I always created amazing adventures.

Comforting fantasies of exploring, friendship and love.

I hated waking up.

Tick Tock

Standard

We all know times flows and it

Goes

Fast when we want it slow,

And slow when we want it to move fast.

But it is true

Things will happen when they happen

And we will get there when we get there.

Without a clock time

Still somehow moves,

So do our hearts

And our very cells.

So just be grateful and stop your fretting

Because letting go of all that worry,

That Tick Tock hurry,

Will set you free.

They Too

Standard

I used to run and hide when people hurt me.

I gave away my power without a second thought.

I used to give them my tears and time.

I am learning to turn around

Gently.

To forgive and honor the soul of each heart and mind.

To give more tears and time

To joy.

To see beauty in both dreams and reality.

I am learning they too are afraid,

They just show it in a different way.

Neutron

Standard

Supernova.

There you are,

A neutron star.

Your heart is my magnetic north,

Pulling me in closer

With such ease.

Naturally.

And on we go.

You and I

Intentionally

Choose

To explore

The unnamed constellations.

Unnoticed places.

Plans forgotten for the day now,

Sway into me.

Take me into

The hidden passages

Of your heart and mind.

The intersection

Where dreams meet reality

Creating a new dimension

In the soul.

Let us misplace our minds and

Vanish all together.

Trinkets

Standard

Little trinkets in my drawer;

My nightstand

Where i keep my most valuable

Treasures.

They would mean nothing to

Anyone else.

I put them out sometimes and reminisce.

What memory may be tugging at my heart?

What color am i feeling today?

Nostalgic

Or happy.

Maybe sad and missing someone,

Missing someplace.

Maybe i should toss them all out

And start over.
