There's no mistaking
You're breathtaking
While I'm busy gawking
You're already leaving
me suddenly grieving for you abrupt exit
I see why they are called mourning cloaks....when they fly away you lose something lovely before you really have seen it.

It isn't a surprise yet; I have a hard time believing
Maybe by stuffing the info somewhere back there it got lost
Denial is such a lovely thing
As slowly the truth plucks at the heart strings
You won’t be here anymore
Farewell familiar
The date draws nearer to your exit
The calendar can’t lie though I wish it was possible to forget
I find myself grieving
It is a simple fact you’re leaving
Why does it matter if you should be here or not?
With you gone
It is one less thing I know
The fact you were where you always were
What takes place of the absence?
Hearts keep beating, hearts k

4 simple letters but it Means More than just the word can say
How can I convey
the grief
the disbelief
When you just witness the damage for the first time?
when fact becomes finite
you don't get to sleep in YOUR own bed tonight
A place shaped over years
doesn't quite compensate the tears
A place of familiarity
no more of the peace and security
It will be fine, after all you're alive...
It's just materialistic
it can be replaced
"NO" let's be realistic
go ruin my child's smile
Tell them they can never set foot in the only place they knew
the childhood memories of where they grew...
How do you begin

playing games of cestial dot to dots
we carved out consteallations
we had visions of grand destinations
dreaming of providences beyond those stars
we stood at the point where beach and ocean meet
the surf curling at our feet
we stood staring into starry skies
seagulls yelling
moon harboring secrets; not telling of the tides
we reclined back in the grass
carving out constellations
playing games of cestial dot to dots
tying promise knots
but dreaming of where we are going
but not, not, not knowing
playing games of cestial dot to dots
we carved out consteallations trying to map out our roots, in the stars
as if they already held the answers
moon harboring those secrets; not telling

HomeHome5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
The only place you can call home
Is the only place that you don't feel alone
You always feel wanted and needed
The only place you have ever succeeded
It could be with your mom and dad
Or with some guy named chad
It doesn't matter where this place exists
As long as all of the above consists
Near or far
Wherever you are
You have a home
To call your own
Don't doubt your current state
Everyone has their own fate
You may not be home yet
But please don't fret
We all end up there in the end
So for now, you just have to blend

Alone
Such a simple word, isn’t it?
Just 5 letters,
yet it has so many meanings.
Have you ever been
Alone?
So alone?
All alone?
Always Alone.
Walking through the halls,
everywhere I go,
Alone
All alone
Always alone.
Standing by the car,
sitting in the classroom.
Alone.
So Alone.
All alone.
Always alone.

Outside, the snow fell lightly as the dogs played around. Snow covered the ground everywhere, and trees surrounded a small little house. Inside this small house, was a player. A Minecraftian player. She silently waited for the clay to turn into bricks, and used those bricks to cover the floor. She had wasted a whole day finding all this clay, and as it turned out, she had gotten a bit too much of it.
Her dogs suddenly started barking at something, and then there was a knock at the door. The player looked around quickly for a moment, then grabbed a pumpkin and put it over her head. She opened the door slightly, and saw a familiar face.

It would all be in disdain
I can't find words for it in my own brain
I would try if I could
but I don't think you would understand
and I can't find words to translate it
I will show you instead
to try and give a picture of the thoughts in my head
only it might not be my eyes you see what I see
you won't be seeing from the view that brought whatever was presented to you
only seeing the result...of whatever it was that tried to get delivered
never knowing the mind frame of the sender...

Davie sighed as he walked past Titane's farm. 'No, it's perfectly fine,' he told himself, 'just coming here to ask her favor and then she turns it down. So now I have to walk through the freezing cold alone.'
The city was quite a while away, which was just great. It's his duty as a Peace Keeper to walk so very far in the cold alone. At least he didn't have to find Tigermiss and Titaniumflame. Seriously, who even knows where they are now? They're always just exploring, everywhere.
Sometimes he thinks that Tiger is just trying to avoid Lavar. But he doubts that. She's too nice to do something like that.

There's a vacancy reserved only for your occupancy
It seems I' ll just be dreaming of your company

The pain in my chest will never go away,
Never, until my dying day.

I lived off of lies,

England Is My Home. . .England Is My Home. . .1 year ago in Emotional More Like This
As I stood upon the grass, looking out over the breathtakingly gorgeous English countryside, I felt tears spring to my eyes. In front of me came a flowing river. Wider than most, though not so large as to be unsightly for a river. Its white caps bit at the soft air, and the warm breeze seemed to be dancing with the river, because every now and then, it would fall out of step, and ruffle my long hair across my cheek.
I looked up, past the river in front of me. Beyond the river came seemingly endless fields and hills of green. There were forests, flowers, a lone cottage, deer, trees, squirrels, and everything nice that the English country
