Amongst The Stars

I want to capture your essence 

and place it amongst the stars, 

where it'll stay glowing 

and shimmering, 

always watching me

and watching the world

forever.

Your body may crumble

but among the planets and universes

you'll live,

jumping and running and exploring 

to your heart's content. 

And when I'm feeling 

alone and abandoned, 

I know I would be able to 

look up at the sky, 

and know you'll be there 

for eternity.

What inspired this? I honestly don't know. This could become part of a song....

But on a different topic, I went to see the Lorax movie today. It was awesome, and I really liked it. It had a lot of Seuss-like dialogue, and many scenes and quotes are from the book, while adding a new dimension to the story as well. If you can, go see it. It might be cliche, but it's cute and heartwarming.

a whisper

the wind brings 

a promise, a taste  

of clear blue skies 

and stormy grey clouds, 

of warm sun and shimmering 

cool rain, 

of grass and trees awakening 

to a world of green. 

a promise, 

a whisper 

of spring.

sorry I haven't posted in awhile! just getting myself unwound and relaxed before heading back to school. getting beautiful weather here, perfect for the March Break! it's awesome just to go outside, read a book and soak up the warmth. also great for gathering some inspiration :)

Out Of My Head

Why can’t you get out of my head? 

I tried to banish you ages ago. 

So many times I’ve told myself 

that I’m better off without you, 

and yet you still lurk in my thoughts. 

Go away, 

you’ve already broken my heart once, 

I need time to heal. 

But maybe it’s not you in my head, 

maybe it’s me not wanting to forget.
