Losing grip, I see the end coming

You say you've lost yourself

Just when I'm feeling found

Now I'm the one feeling like I've lost

I thought it was finally real

But the familiar is coming near

A lightbulb burnt up

In a flash bright

The next dark.

There's such a thing as too much love

Too much affection

Too much caring

At least that's what I've learned from today's society.

Who is to know such things?

There's no way to measure

Not in grams or ounces.

Perhaps there's a scale somewhere, or a meter.

If this is what society has come to

It highly explains why it's in shambles

If even love has a measure of too much

Then why is it acceptable for hate to be abundant?

Human relationships have become a game

A push pull from both sides struggling to keep the other in check

Life is nothing more than one long race

I'm content not being first when no one ever finishes.

Everything was cryptic but when you spoke. Like a line from a song you smiled. Everything was alright.

#40

I've never wanted things to work out more

I'm scared though I'll push you away

Possibly ruin things, or become a bore

I'm awkward around you because I can't think right

So I say whatever comes to my head

Like when we said goodbye that first night

I have the best intentions and a good heart

When you're with me I smile wide

The same as when I think of you, miles apart

I see the potential in us though we're new

You've opened my eyes wide already

I'm very happy to be with you.

Swaying in the bed, you rest upon my shoulder your head.

A soft kiss on your cheek, it's only been two weeks.

Radiating your skin shines, as does my face with your hand in mine.

Enter my mind, you've made an imprint of some kind.

The impression will stick.

#38

Jumping into the pool

A wave of colors splash

The deck is wet

The deck is wet

#37

On the edge, teetering. Nothing is certain.

Dark clouds converge overhead. The sun is blocked.

Rays of light shine through struggling to be seen.

In one moment the sky opens. Torrential rains.

Nothing is safe from the downpour. Trees sway in the wind.

In the distance the sun is seen trailing.

I grasp your hand and know everything will be fine.
