Love is Love


love is a funny thing, 
it likes to fly out of our reach 
until we give up all hope 
and then find us again when we've forgotten it
it's strange 
in the way that it comes around 
usually when your lonely 
or hurt 
and it can flip your world upside down 
in the corse of a day 
love is love 
no matter where your from
or who you share it with 
or how it changes you 
we all have wanted it
and have all lost sight of it 
but the truth is you can never truly lose love 
it's always waiting around that next corner 
or hiding deep within your despair, 
there's always someone out there who'll love you 
There's allways someone who's willing to care.

  • The Boxes In The Corner

    Looming over your shoulders

    Each stack higher than its former

    Every thought and every scrap

    Of an idea too scared to ponder

     

    Every moment that hurt

    Each minute that lingered longer

  • Inadequacy


    How do I push the words out
    From behind my taffy tongue 
    Thick with salty tears 
    And full of grubby thumb 


    I’m a child 
    Pretending that I’m numb 
    To escape the overwhelming feelings 

  • Paper Frogs

    Why

    When feet fall soft but quick 

    Does the hallway extend

    And the hot breath of whoever’s behind me feel hotter 

    Why do I stay pressed to the wall 

    Like a stubborn gruby sticker
