Missing the unknown


it doesn’t make sense

how can i be missing someone

that i don’t even know

missing

not excited to see

but missing them

as if they were already a lover

taken away by

space and time

i miss you as i walk past

and you look away

as if you were afraid to lock my gaze

as if it were a trap

as if once you look

you’d never be able to

look away

will we ever get past this loneliness

this absence

even while in the presence

how can we keep missing a connection when we are so often so close

i am not sure i can endure

i miss you so i want to see you tonight

but it is also so painful to see you

i am filled with fright

Walking a fine line between genius and insanity. My words are raw, sometimes visceral, and vulgar.  I write to settle my thoughts.  I have triggers that extract emotional immaturity, deep- rooted fears, anger, insecurity, vulnerability, yet I heal with every stroke of the pen.  I might be that monster.  I sometimes scare myself.  Please keep this in mind as you read.  I do not wish to provoke you, though stories need to be told. *not all posts are in real time
