Today's Fears

I found myself in the things I love

In the music I listen to

In the books I read

In the posters on my walls 

I found myself 

In my favorite drink

In going to the beach

In writing poetry 

I've been asked a lot,

If you had one wish what would you wish for?

Blowing out candles on a cake,

What did you wish for?

Blowing the seeds off a dandelion,

What did you wish for?

I wish 

You act like it is so easy for you to forget me

Like it is so easy for you to move on

Like it is so easy to pretend we never happened 

So why is it not easy for me?

Why is it so hard for me to forget you?
