gazing out the window
at midnight
the endless sky, comforting
safe and cold darkness
running in the veins
.
sedate wind, kissing me
blowing the baby hairs
hugged me, like you would
picturing us together
on the clear night sky
flying on 'the' carpet
near the moon
.
every best memories
waltzing bit-by-bit
that time we made love
around one twenty-one
on your roof top
the fine rain
fondling us wholly
.
the moment; maybe froze
just for me
seeing the serenity
reflected clearly by the eyes
left in solitary
.
sudden clock ticking,
distracted me from my space
thought-
let the darkness
comfort me a little more
let the world
sleep a little more
.

About Writing
Most people talk about things that bother them as a way to vent their emotions, another way is through writing. As I sit writing in my car, I ponder how much writing, in itself, has helped me become the person I am today. I have endless amounts of pages filled with poems, stories, and sometimes random blurbs. Writing is a window into your soul. The simple action of writing has benefited me; by helping me to achieve a better memory, helping me to learn and grow intellectually, and helping me to communicate my emotions.
