forever more

something you said
tonight
will ring in my ears
forever more.

you didn't lecture me
didn't judge
didn't pry.

but you sang 4 words
so sweetly
that i'm surprised the whole bar
didn't stop and stare
& marvel at your inner beauty.

i hope you're happy. oh, i really do hope you're happy.

so often we're quick to judge
and wish the worst upon each other.

but for someone
to genuinely wish
happiness upon you
is pure magic.

feels like 2 degrees

as the gray daysfill my eyes
and the leaves
hopelessly wander across the road
i remember that we are in a
season of change.

nothing is permanent.
time is short
and i need to make the most of it.

i need to make the most of this.
