208. You Are You

The smile slowly spreading
across my face,
The gleam in my eye -
I got them both
I guess my voice even gives
it away somehow
When I talk.
It's no tlike it's a new thing -
But it feels so new and different
Maybe because I think I shouldn't
be feeling it -
Simply because it's you.
Not because you're bad
Just because you're you.
I've always only seen you
in one way.
Seeing you differently scares me
Because you are you
And I don't want that to change.

205. Anger

I have all this anger built
up inside of me,
I don't know what to do
How do I get rid of it?
Where do I put it?
I don't want to tell anyone
And yet I can't keep it
bottled up inside of me.
It's slowly eating away at me,
Tearing me up inside -
Destroying me and everyone
else around me
How do I get rid of
so much anger -
Then where would I
put it all
For I know it's too much
for another to handle.

Cleanse me of whatever
is dirty.
Anything that needs to
be cleaned.
I open my heart to you -
As much as I know
But please help me open
it more -
And keep it open for all
eternity.
Never leave my side
Guide me through my path
And keep loving me more
and more each day.

207. Untitled (xxxiv)

When I look into your eyes,
I can't let go of the stare.
They're speaking to me,
But I don't know what
they're saying.
Still, my eyes speak back.
Not knowing or comprehending
They have their own conversation -
Apart from the physical body
and the intellectual mind.
It comes from the heart -
Deep within somewhere.
Unsaid, but told
Unheard, but spoken
Unknown, but felt.

204. Isolation

Isolation from the world
Can cause someone to go insane
But can also bring so much peace.
If one can handle the loneliness
they may feel
They may very well survive
anything.
If one can endure the silence
he/she will hear,
Any sound will sound beautiful
Silence speaks the truth
And the truth will set you free.
Isolation will bring you together
with everyone around you.
And more importantly make
you one with yourself.

203. Untitled (xxxii)

You anger me so much
And frustrate me even more
I want to scream
And pull out every hair on my head.
No matter how hard I try
I can't keep my cool.
I'm always on the verge
of snapping -
If I haven't already.
You drive me totally insane;
I can't stand being around you.
Every little thing sets one of us off.
That I can't take it anymore -
Somebody save me,
Tell me what to do -
Just put me out of my misery!
