black & gold





You’re tossing & turning in the bed
Everything around seems to be dying or leaving you
You open your eyes & realize it was just a dream
You are panicking
It wasn’t the dream that scared you,
it was the thought of being alone
The thought of no one being there for you
The thought of someone not better than you,
being with the one you care for
With those thoughts
you turn to your right & realize you’re not alone
The person you are fond of is right next to you,
Sound asleep

GOLD

This was the moment I realized I was over the infatuation
I started to smile at his beautiful face
His body was glowing & all I could think about were
the meaningful words he told me just a few hours prior
He was mine that morning
I scooted towards him & wrapped my body around his
I whispered in his ear and said,
“You are mine”
He started to shiver so I held him closer to me &
proceeded to kiss him on his forehead
I was no longer in like
I knew he didn’t hear me, he was in a deep sleep but
I am certain he felt something worth waking up for

BLACK

The moment we said goodbye
I felt my heart relaxing
I had the thought we will see each other again
The moment my lips left his
I felt my mind ease up
I had the idea of us belonging
Then I realized I was back to black
Way back
I felt like I ran 2000 miles just to be pushed back three inches from where I started
There was no gold in sight
Just a moment in my life where I wish I could return to sleep
