It's gone but I still remember

I'm smiling to myself,

remembering,

reminiscing,

the good times.

 

The times where it was you,

and me,

against the world.

 

Who would stop us?

 

Ourselves,

but we didn't know that yet,

naive to our own ending,

our decisions.

 

People seem to change,

we both did,

but man was it good while it lasted,

it's hard to think those days have passed.

 

I can still hear your laugh,

I can remember the way you would shove me when I would say something stupid,

I still remember what my heart did when you called me 'car.'

 

Tears are starting to slip,

my smile still remains,

it's funny when that happens,

when you smile,

but your eyes still leak tears,

I think it's our brains,

and our hearts,

emotions showing at the same time.

  • Whispers of a home

    I hear the tick of a clock letting me know every second I am wasting as I scroll through my phone,

    the slide of my finger against the screen,

    the tap of my thumb as I message someone back,

    artificial noise.

     

  • A child in Spring

    Some where there is a child jumping in new puddles,

    playing in the soft mud of the Earth,

    full of joy.

     

    Some where a child picks springs new dandelions,

    blowing on the fluffy seeds to make wishes.

  • A letter to ICE

    Pledge your life to liberty and justice,

    raise your hand and take an oath to serve and protect,

    who are you protecting though?

     

    I watch the news and see agents hurting the innocent,

    children,
