Forgotten Path
Alone, I walk
Before me only darkness
Creeping into my soul
Deteriorating my happiness
Effortlessly it fades away
Fades out of reach
Gone forever
How I wish I could go back
I miss the way it was
Just you and me
Killing time together
Loneliness never found
Me when I was with you
Now I can’t seem to escape it
Overcoming everything I’ve known
Powerless in its wrath
Quiet is my only constant, so I try to
Run away from it all
Stumbling, I can’t seem to make it
To far from the finish
Underneath the heavy burden, I am
Victim to the everlasting loneliness
With only you on my mind
X marks the spot
Yet I will never make it, left only to look
Zealously for a way back to your heart

In Love
Powerful, beautiful
Embracing, captivating, infatuating
Eternal, warmth, desire, happiness
Cheating, breaking, hurting
Empty, sadness
Broken
Powerful, beautiful
Embracing, captivating, infatuating
Eternal, warmth, desire, happiness
Cheating, breaking, hurting

Phrase Poem
Stars roll through the midnight sky
The air, crisp and clean
Shadows of the tall timbers outline the gravel path
The moon above us, white as a pearl, glows effortlessly
A whisper escapes your breath
Ending the silence that had earlier surrounded us
The wind picks up, howling through the forest
Goosebumps rise on my arms
You grab my hand as we quicken our pace
The path before us, twisted and never-ending
The air, crisp and clean
Shadows of the tall timbers outline the gravel path
The moon above us, white as a pearl, glows effortlessly
A whisper escapes your breath
Ending the silence that had earlier surrounded us
The wind picks up, howling through the forest
Goosebumps rise on my arms
You grab my hand as we quicken our pace
The path before us, twisted and never-ending

Terza Rima
I wish you could take me away
All I want is to get out of this place
In your arms I would rather stay
Can’t you see it in my broken face
I’m coming undone, fraying at the ends
Only you can save me with your grace
So maybe a hand you could lend
To pull me back to you, forever
Piece by piece my heart you could mend
Because with you, I feel as light as a feather
A spirit unbroken, eyes that light up all for you
The idea of us, so very clever
So lets run away, and together we can forget all we ever knew
All I want is to get out of this place
In your arms I would rather stay
Can’t you see it in my broken face
I’m coming undone, fraying at the ends
Only you can save me with your grace
So maybe a hand you could lend
To pull me back to you, forever
Piece by piece my heart you could mend
Because with you, I feel as light as a feather
A spirit unbroken, eyes that light up all for you
The idea of us, so very clever
So lets run away, and together we can forget all we ever knew

Prose
The wind whips around my sun-kissed hair as we travel down this beaten path. Our final destination a mystery to me, but your coy smile hints you know where your hand is leading me. The air is brisk, for summer is coming to a close. "We're almost there," you gently whisper in my ear, sending shrills up and down my neck. I look up at the winding trail, curiosity itching its way into my mind. You give my hand a slight squeeze, bringing my focus back to you. Those sea foam eyes get me every time you know, it's impossible to look away. You quicken your pace, sending a slight rush throughout my veins. As we turn the final corner, a mere gasp escapes my hushed breath. The beauty of the scene before me, indescribable. Close to the most breathtaking thing I've ever seen, second only to those eyes of yours. The setting sun casts shadows of pink and deep purple across the sky as we look out over the Bunyan trees. We sit on a broken rock and watch the silent forrest below us. You wrap me up in your sweatshirt, and once again lean in, whispering sweet nothings in my ear as the rest of the world begins to fade away.

Sonnet
You grab my hand as I begin to walk away
The butterflies refuse to rest in my heart
Now, with you I will forever stay
Our souls never to be apart
Pulling me into your arms, all I want is you
For in them i'm intertwined between your world and mine
What was old is once again new
And everything is in a perfect line
You wrap your hands around my neck and kiss me
Effortlessly, as the rain comes pouring down us
As if going blind, I can no longer see
I'm lost between love and lust
Our lips separate but I'm not ready to leave
Because with you, I have a reason to believe
The butterflies refuse to rest in my heart
Now, with you I will forever stay
Our souls never to be apart
Pulling me into your arms, all I want is you
For in them i'm intertwined between your world and mine
What was old is once again new
And everything is in a perfect line
You wrap your hands around my neck and kiss me
Effortlessly, as the rain comes pouring down us
As if going blind, I can no longer see
I'm lost between love and lust
Our lips separate but I'm not ready to leave
Because with you, I have a reason to believe

Fast Forward
I feel like life is passing me by
The past year on constant fast forward
How i wish I could rewind
Stay in those happy moments
Maybe pause for a while
At the times that took my breath away
For now I feel everything is a constant rush
A sprint when it should be a stroll
I'm not ready to leave
Not ready to go
The past year on constant fast forward
How i wish I could rewind
Stay in those happy moments
Maybe pause for a while
At the times that took my breath away
For now I feel everything is a constant rush
A sprint when it should be a stroll
I'm not ready to leave
Not ready to go
