Writings

Daydreaming

Sitting still

Staring off

Vivid worlds

Endless stories

In my mind

Dark and light

Love and hate

Death and life

I see it all

Unfolding now

But only for me

Till I write it down...

Daydreaming

you are the

heroine in

every story i

write


you are the

muse for

every work

of art


you are the

dream i have

each day that

will always


keep the night

away and

save me from

my darkest thoughts


because i’ve

been dreaming

everyday about

you for forever


i live before

you but

now i can’t

live without you


so now you

live in my

day dreams

only rivaled


by your own

breath and

heart...

_Peace is offered by none, so I offer it to myself._

_I choose to lie in my bed, the world in my mind far better than the world outside._

_Behind my eyelids, this dark is far brighter than any real flame._

_There, I can become what I yearn, I can achieve what I desire._

_I am what I desire. _

_Flowers blossom within me, because I will them to, and happiness sparks from nothing, because...

Daydreaming.

Daydreaming is my escape,

It is where I take my breaks,

I float in the depths of my mind,

Feeling elated, feeling sublime.


I dream of what I long to have;

Like the bliss of not feeling mad,

Holding onto the friends out of reach,

Her sweet lips forcing me to not speak.


I dream of the possible future;

Where I’m safe, sound, and structured,

Where hatred dries to a measly puddle,

And I’ve finally po...

Granite Bathroom Funtime

Granite Bathroom Funtime


Chicken wings used to be able to fly


And now they’re not so skinny


And we’re the reason why


Also, come down to our bathrooms


We’ll have Funtimes and make memorable memories! In the bathrooms!


Of the granite brewery!...

Daydreaming

Is this cheating?

I think about taking you out

In the middle of English

You grab my hand


Under the pink and purple clouds

Drive till we can’t no more

Car break down

And calling your mom


Daydreaming about us dancing in the rain

Dreaming about you blushing

Daydreams about you

All about you...

He Wonders

He wonders if he will see the high mountains

Beyond the water fall


He wonders about the sun in the sky


He wonders whether weather feels


Does it laugh and cry?


He wonders when his time will come


And in what exact way


He wonders about everything


Every night and day


A forever wonderer


He will always stay...

Daydreamer

I stare at the computer screen in front of me

All the words blur together

When all of a sudden

I am transported to a magical forest

Where the trees wave hello

And the birds chirp their friendly tune

Everything is serene, quiet

No worries or expectations

Just peace and happiness

I’m brought back to the present moment by a tapping

My boss says, “Where’s that report I asked for 3 hours ago?”...

Daydreaming

The soft brush

Of your hand

On my jaw;

My heart continues to crush

Under the weight

Of your overflowing love-


“Alright! Now talk with a partner about the things a business would need. What resources? What-“


My blurred mind

Clears with the

Rough words of the teacher;

I am in class,

Not with you


I look around

In hopeless despair

Wondering what I am to do

After I woke up from my

Compellin...

Daydreaming Voids..

He hissed in my head,

one cold dark night.

Tearing up my insides,

looking for life.

Oh and if the

darkness could

empty from his soul;

it would pour across

my body, rattling my bones.

An eclipsed melody

of strife and rot.

Just bury me in his hands;

let me dream away these knots. Stranded translucent

at my very grave.

A once love I've buried,

in whispering crave.

Inhale my heart,
