My mind

The rhythm of it all

stops

I hear

I feel

the world differently

it hurts in a way I can't describe

my mind scared of this abnormal occurrence

but happens relatively often.

I can't describe it

it's worse if there's a song stuck in my head

or it's super quiet.

I have dreams, too

that are more sensation

then visual.

I can never describe them

and when I try

my mind can't form the words that I wish to say

the words that don't exist.

It is more of a feeling

a sensation to the mind

then a visual form

an appearance

that continues to haunt

my mind.

    Your new-ish house

    your dog sleeping on the rug

    my family and your family chatting comfortably

    your kitchen with your hot chocolate

    the fun spinny stools at the kitchen island

    that's one of my happy places

  • Acceptance

    When we see flaws in ourselves

    we withdraw from society

    curl in on ourselves

    trying to hide from our insecurities.

    The thing is

    people struggle to understand

    that their faults are a part of themselves
