having a bad dream

caught under violent oceans

of negative thoughts

life comes at you fast

hurling boulders and sharp stones

raise your shield up high

sing my song for me

your soothing voice weaving words

into a melody

we both looked so cute

holding hands on the boardwalk

small smiles and brief hugs

not knowing the end was near

I wish it lasted longer

standing in the sand

the tickleing warmth leaving

cold ocean shower

caught in a daydream

you and I falling too fast

lost in the moment

none of us are lost

we are all just wanderers

on our own journeys

Happiness is when

you can say what you want to

no filter attached

Happiness is when

you know that you don’t have to

keep up a fake smile

alone with the stars

we compete to shine brighter

glowing together
