Not ready

When the world is dark, and the stars are out 

My mind comes alive. 

I drown alone in my thoughts with a smile on my face, 

And let myself get lost, 

Because I know I’ll be found. 

I don’t yet know when, or how, or by whom, 

But someday these thoughts will be put into words and understood. 

When I am understood, I will know, and my soul will be set free 

But till then I will wait, for the day my future comes 

The universe will know I’m ready.

  • Glittering

    I locked eyes with him, the glowing man on the stage. 

    He glimmered, his red hair shining under the spotlight. 

    That was all it took for my heart to be stolen away. 

  • When it comes true

    when it comes true

    when my dream is found, 

    my goals reached, 

    will I be fulfilled? 

    will the future be everything I’d hoped, 

    or a letdown

    a saddening realization of truth
