Love running around
Wondering where it went wrong 
It still feels alive.

I wish you chose to love me today.

This is the first. The first of many words I wish I could tell you. The first of many emotions I could express to you. Our time was cut short. We couldn't be the people that we hoped for and searched for. Rather, we couldn't do it together. I have always thought that what we had was impossible to find. God brought us together and nothing could tear us apart. I was wrong. So many things are against someone finding happiness in another. So many things barricade us from the deepest emotions we wish the other could understand. I love you. Those three simple yet extraordinary words could shake the planet and defeat worlds. I love you so much that it pains me to say goodbye. These words that I've held onto from the start all the way until now are words I don't wish to forget but you force me to return them to memories. I didn't have words before because I wrote based on the pain I felt and even the storm in my life that took over I still was at home with you. You were som...

The Complicated Expression of Love.

I have concluded that my life is absolutely dominated by the meaning of love or maybe it's the feeling. Not just romantically but every form of love there is to exist. The warmth, and need for love constantly draws me to believe that I can't function without it. I struggled with the meaning of love for years.

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." What if we were to cultivate these traits within ourselves? I think doing tha...

A Complex Paradox.

An ounce of myself is what leads to every aspect of myself. I have now returned to the feelings of confusion and devastation though it was mainly erased by the illusion of time. It has found itself creeping up the path that I had illuminated and seems to want to cover it with lies and deception, created under the false pretense of my alternate state of being. I can't possibly understand to the full extent of what makes me whole and who makes me complete but if not myself then who could ever understand the paradox of being a paradox. Stating what I am compromised of and knowing what I'm made of contradicts the idea of me actually discerning my innermost self. I don't know how to express the vulnerability of being able to engage in the facets that intrigue me. I can't explicitly comprehend my little knowledge of the thoughts that incessantly corrupt my internal consciousness. Still, I have been able to recognize the fact that my external consciousness has taken every bit ...
