Happiness is...
A smile that breaks the frown on your lips,
How you tilt your head back to look at the sun and laugh like there's no tomorrow,
When you shift in a cozy chair with a wonderful book on a rainy day,
When you sit on the soft sand of the beach and eat ice cream with your best friend,
When you hear the chatter of birds and swish of wind in the trees when walking in the forest,
When I look into the horizon, and embrace our extraordinary world.
the stars will be our storybook
they seem to believe
love exists only in
paper boys, paper girls.
but paper towns like to migrate
and paper skies fly away
paper love gets harder to
find day by day.
so love stories aren't paper
they're written in the stars
invincible and inconceivable
to silly paper hearts.
don’t ask me why
My future seemed bright but the light is fading. My love seemed caught but it seems to be escaping. My thoughts were aligned but have been tossed up like a bad game of scrabble. Things that were once solid leave and die and get lost in the rabble. Eating used to be too easy, but now it makes me nervous. Maybe if I go to sleep for a while I'll be doing everyone good service. All I really need is a good friend, or a few. But silence is stability and you can't have the two. I keep getting lost in thought but the words I write are stained. Writing was my savior but now it seems so strained.
