Heather Apr 30
Ever  been ***** and equally uninspired?
Not a single person keeps the fantasy alive
Heather Apr 30
Emotions have always been too intense for me
Searing hot in my belly
I got too comfortable trying yours on for size
Now I don’t remember how to be **** if not for you
Heather Apr 24
I always miss you the most in the spring time
I remember your flower shirts and linen pants
The way you would insist on brushing my hair 100 times a night on the front porch
How you always pretended you didn’t like your birthday
As your eyes glowed behind the candle light
You always seemed the lightest
The closest to your faith
The most comfortable
When the birds began singing
And the wind blew through the cherry blossoms
Heather Apr 23
As I struggle for oxygen
And swallow the lump in my throat
I remember the way you saved me

As I skip breakfast
And walk for more and more miles each day
I remember how you praised me

I am as broken as I always was
And I remember what a beautiful thing to be
Sometimes even those who challenge and disappoint you can steer you back on to your path
Heather Apr 18
I learned to laugh the loudest
To drown out my cries
Sometimes the voice in my head screaming for help
Is magnanimous
I swear they can hear her in Mars

But no one cares about your suffering little one
They have their own packs to carry.
Heather Apr 7
I think today I realized you are the reason I stopped celebrating my birthday
I’m not sure if it was your presence or the lack of it
Heather Apr 7
I can’t help but hesitate
To step forward or out with anyone.
I can feel you reaching out to me
But I don’t know who you are yet
