Lost in hundred mile per hour thoughts

My minds running and won’t stop
Too many things and no time to do them

I make my lists intending to remember the tasks that need to be done

Leaving the house I don’t realize the list is lying on the floor
Why have I done this once again?

At the store I am distracted by shiny things on the shelves in front of me
Reaching in my purse I find no list

What was I here for?
What do I need?

Finished

The silence around me engulfs my emotions
Like a big gray cloud that follows my every step

If you only knew what you were doing
You might have been able to help
Can we undue what we have done?

Intentional destruction

Wrote this one a few years back...right before a break up

You frustrate me to the point of tears.
I try to distract myself from the overwhelming emotions I feel inside but they over come my strong façade and I cave,
I break into a million pieces and fall to the floor.

I would ask: “why you do this to me”
but I know I wouldn’t get a reply.
Why is this happening, why can’t I just let it be?

Your casual attitude and your non-caring demeanor strikes me as so strange.
How can one act this way?

I care about you.
I stand right in front of you my arms and heart open.
I am here for you to take.

But you don’t see me, you walk right through me.
Clueless of what I have become.
Clueless of what you mean to me.
This madness has to stop
Something must be done
This could never be

Innocence

Precious little angles
Dancing around the room
A sparkle in their eyes
A smile on their faces
They giggle with joy as they gracefully prance
Here and there
Keep them safe

Signals

My aching back reminds my body how tired it is.
The stiff feeling is familiar
My mind pictures a bed and my body wants to follow
Home I go

Rewriting a sentence

Rewriting this sentence: “Casually he told her he loved her”

Smiling he looked deep into her soul and kissed her

Starring into her eyes he took he hand and gently kissed her

Deeply looking into her eyes he gently took her hand and kissed it.

He smiled looking deep into her eyes moved closer and kissed her.

Smiling he looked deep into her soul and kissed her.

He gracefully turned to her, smiling he kissed her soft lips

Tuning to face her he smiled and kissed her sweet soft lips

He kissed her with a smile

With a wink of his eye he gently kissed her

Glowing he turned and kissed her

Savoring the moment he kissed her gently

Whats your favorite?

Playing with words

Pure precious

A mischievous imp

Slowly drifts away, tainted by experience

Delicate, genuine intentions

A mischievous little devil

Tainted by life, slowly loses faith
