I Want To Cry

I want to cry

I want to let it out

Each tear

A reminder of my failures

Each tear 

Filled with my fears

Each tear

A bottle of sadness 

Maybe anger

I want to cry

And for it to all go away

I want 

All the bad feelings to

Escape me

In the form of salty droplets

I’ll have my tears

Leave streaks across my cheeks

Each one a path

That no one wants to follow

I’ll have my eyes well up

And when they empty

My heart will no longer be heavy

With sadness

I want to cry

And I want to be ok

    All you need is love?

    Love story?

    I know that feeling

    A bit differently

    But I know of love

    That opens doors

    The love that is

  • Dear New York City

    Dear New York City,

    I don’t know what it is

    That makes me love it so much

    Maybe it’s the buildings

    That stretch towards the sky

    Forever reaching upwards

  • Field of Roses

    Have you ever seen dozens of roses?

    A field perhaps

    Covered in red beauty

    Have you ever tried walking through dozens of roses?

    Your fingertips perhaps

    Covered in red blood

    From afar roses are gorgeous
