Well..

I wish I knew more than I do,
but I'm glad I know more than I did.

Run for it

You, 
Standing there
Covered in a jacket of confidence.
Me,
Standing here
Cloaked in a blanket of insecurities.
Perhaps if I felt a chill
You would fling your jacket over my shoulders
And for a moment 
I could muster the confidence
To run instead of walk.

Happy happy.. Joy joy

Sometimes
I'm happy for no reason
or
no specific reason
or
too many reasons
or...
Just one.

Moments

Moments are fleeting
Like the flashing lights of a lightning bug 
at twilight on a summers day.
When your young you catch it 
put it in a jar 
and carry it around with you.
As you grow up you just sit back 
and watch the light dance
Enjoying the beauty of the moment 
Because even if it is gone too soon,
You appreciate that it happened at all

In due time

It took no time for me to realize I am physically my mothers twin
but after 25 years I am still learning how very much like my father I am...

Some nerve

How dare I wish for an easier life
when those who came before me have had it so much harder

Today

I'm an emotional wreck.
Fear is not an emotion I often experience,
I'm not sure I know how to deal with this.

random lyrical moment 3

"Wait, do you see my heart on my sleeve?
It's been there for days on end and
It's been waiting for you to open up
yours too baby, come on now
I'm trying to tell you just how
I'd like to hear the words roll out of your mouth finally
Say that it's always been me

That's made you feel the way you've never felt before
And I'm all you need and that you never want more
Then you'd say all of the right things without a clue
But you'd save the best for last
Like I'm the one for you

You should know that you're just a temporary fix
This is not routine with you it don't mean that much to me
oh just a filler in the space that happened to be free
How dare you think you'd get away with trying to play me"
-Adele
