Balloon



Balloon

I have been alone in this quiet space,
yesterday,
  today,
and soon I will be tomorrow.

I wish I was able to hug you,
in a  minute,
in a second,
right now.

Distance really makes one realize how important moments are.
Whether they are
Sweet, 
sad,
or holding onto an argument for too long.

You make me remember what it is like to have faith,
when letting go of my struggles,
in the windy and mysterious skies.

Watching my struggle drift away, 
fading into clouds,
slowly falling down,
until there is no more pride to lift that struggle up,
until I finally give up and admit my weakness.


I hope that this struggle stops above you.
I hope that this balloon's shadow covers where you stand right now,

and,

POPS.

So that all the pieces hug their arms around you,
the one who knows me the most,

and you will see my struggle,
no matter how far away you may be.

Excellent Auburn Jewel

Dear Washington, You consumed my joy yet you also added smile You stole my proof-- Proof that there is such thing as fate, that there is such thing as defeating one's fears, and meeting your wish, on the road to Damascus. Take care of my joy, my wish Take care of my Friend

Alone

Alone This has happened before, fighting on my own. Self-hatred and sadness, thin marks, and bruised bone. The urges still haunt me, I see red and relief  The pain still controls me, that old friend, a thief. Stealing my sanity, my strength, my progress My brush needs a canvas ,I'll gently  caress  I have missed you, master,  the love you have shown. Convincing and charming, making me feel alone.

Memories

Boxed up with a bow, gift beautiful, secure wrapped in soft cloth, feeling happy and sure. Now the tape is torn,not well kept together cut open with holes, tossed like a weak feather.  The gift is shattered, but remains in that box damaged, unworthy, weighed down by giant rocks.  Rocks that dent the shape, that was rebuilt so well admired gently, ringing praises like a bell.  Fixed way too quickly, ripped apart in pieces scattered everywhere, the burden increases. Swept up in one scoop, little noise to the ears. Swept up in one day, a gift wrapped for eight years. -Belle Rose
