Superpowers

As a kid I always thought it would be cool to have superpowers.
And the one I always wished for was invisibility.
I just thought it would be fun.

But then I grew up and forgot all about them.

Life started getting harder and harder and recently it seems impossible.

I keep asking for help,

Crying out for it really,

And yet no one seems to hear me.

Maybe I really am invisible.

And maybe it's not as fun as I thought.

The Lucky Ones

We rise and fall,
Live and learn,
And, if we're lucky, we love.
You see, the fortunate few give us all hope;
Hope that true love awaits us all.
And I'm sure that it does.
The question is will we find it in our lifetime,
Or will we walk through this cruel world alone;
Rising and falling,
Living and learning,
But never loving?

Lungs Shut Tight

I feel the air escaping my lungs

I feel them squeezing tight

I feel like breathing has become nearly impossible

I'm scared; I don't want to go this way

I want to fight it

I just don't know how

Wanna See?

The truth will set you free, huh?

I told the truth, except, I lost everything I valued.

I lost you, your trust, your love...

I'm sorry.

I know you probably hate me.

It's okay, because I hate me too.

I have the scars to prove it.

Wanna see?

It's All Wrong

They say the key to any relationship is give and take.
Well, I'm giving.
You're taking.
Nothing is working.
We aren't doing this right.

Could It Be Fate?

Sky has finally broken and
Tears fall from her cloudy, gray eyes
Thunder claps his enormous hands
In a booming celebration
And Lightning lashes out
Striking anything he can

But why

For us

You see, Sky cries

For the time we've wasted

Thunder claps for he knows what we can be

 And it's beautiful

And Lightning, well, he's angry

 Because we've chosen to ignore our opportunities

 The universe wants us together

And maybe we want that too

But maybe we're scared of the what ifs

Or maybe it's the fear of losing one another

But I think,

Despite our fears,

We need to cheer up Sky

Calm Lightning

And thank Thunder

Most of all,

we need to try

Because who are we to go against fate

?

Careful

At this point I think careful only applies to sex because my heart has been thrown into the ring and it’s losing...
