House of mirrors

My feet slap the pavement hard and I imagine they're slapping you
My hair brittle and feels like it'll break off into a million peices.
I'm drenched in sweat and it's December.
Everwhere I turn looks the same, yet no de ja vu
Yet I can still remember you,
So I slap the pavement harder

    when it comes true

    when my dream is found, 

    my goals reached, 

    will I be fulfilled? 

    will the future be everything I’d hoped, 

    or a letdown

    a saddening realization of truth 

  • The wanderer

    The stone wall upon which he sits is crumbling, rough and moss covered, but it is home. 
    He stares up at the migrating geese, their honks loud and clear in the crisp air. 

  • Not ready

    When the world is dark, and the stars are out 

    My mind comes alive. 

    I drown alone in my thoughts with a smile on my face, 

    And let myself get lost, 

    Because I know I’ll be found.
