You And Probably Not Me

Their eyes gaze over you
lust burning in the darkness 
of the pupils 
glazing over with a plea
that is screaming and shouting
notice me, notice me, notice me.


I'll stay here 
and hope from afar 
that one day you can be mine 
and you can take my heart.

Tell it to the Wishing Well

I won't waste wishes
nor will I whine
you know the kind
of thing
revolving around
appearance 
love 
self.


I'll accept a penny
to throw down a well
I'll blow a dandelion
or follow a shooting star
but to you
and you
I'll try keep it to myself
for petty problems
don't need to fill up
other people's time. 

Make a Wish

Stars
Candles
Eye lashes
Dandelions
11:11
Simple things
loaded with
heavy burdens


They can float
around us
despite that weight
a slight reminder
of hope.
