Understanding

Somewhere in my past
a sunny snow day haunts me
the serenity 
Feels too cliche 
to enjoy
I remember the glances out of the window
on a day that finally feels like spring 
because winter can be long and dark
So yeah, I remember sitting in the classroom looking
at the perfect spring day
and if someone said 
things make sense 
Don't listen 
they aren't telling you the truth 

and the clock and fears
bury me
because
nothing 
makes 
sense

  • Separation

    Why does the rain 
    tap on the window
    when you can't feel it?
    Why will it remind you of 
    the dew drops dancing on the grass blades in early spring,
    of August's ocean breeze spraying saltwater in your hair, 

  • Empty

    The person is empty 
    the person with no identity 
    the one with no personality 
    Who doesn't now what yesterday was like or the day before
    Know one seems to know this person anymore 
  • Epiphany

    I might just spend my
    whole life 
    waiting for an 
    epiphany
    will it ever come?
    how will it come 
    exactly?
    grandly and one step at a time
    or all at once 
    like waking up from a confusing dream
