If I Could

If I could
I would lay down on a cloud
and stare up at the sky
watching starts twinkle
I would be able to reach up
and touch the sky itself
​feel the silky, dark night
and know that it has no limits
I would lace dreams themselves together
and bring them to life
I would blow bubbles with the rain
and create lightbulbs with the sun
if I could
I would do anything I wanted
and help others do the same

  • Thoughts after the fair

    I’ve never enjoyed the feeling of being sick to your stomach on a fair ride. Maybe I just don’t have the iron-willed intestines that all of my friends seem to have, because I get sick from going on the teacups at a normal speed.

  • october, my love

    october,
    my love,
    it is good to see you once again.

    although it appears i have missed
    your grand entrance,
    while i left the room.

    i walked along the street to visit you,
    and looked up,
  • scratches

    skin pulled taut and tight
    burning like the light
    that seeps through cracks
    underneath the door

    from stray branches and walking
    throughout the woods, balking
    at the idea
    of no path

    water rests on skin
