Recharge Yourself, Please

I charged my phone twice today
I charged it once in the morning
and once at night.
I could have let it die
but instead, I recharged it
with no questions asked
and walked away

Just think,
what if humans could stop
and recharge with no questions asked too
I wonder how different our world would be

I Am Human

I strip to the bone
so that you can see me
There’s no vail
no hidden meanings
it is exactly as it is
It isn’t easy
living as if my life is my art
it brings no justice
no fairness
no earthly treasures
it doesn’t even bring honest people
it just makes me honest
and fill my heart and soul with everlasting waters
while I stand for what is right and true
I strip to the bone to be as close to the truth
as possible

Inhales Darkness

Gauze drapes her
as she inhales
the darkness
the same darkness that
swallowed her whole
with no regard to
the feast she had left
on the table

She drinks the wine
and swirls to the beat of life
drunk
with damp lips
and the smell of yesterdays,
she reaches the for sky
and finds her present self
staring back at her

My Everything

You are everything
you are all the things in someone I’ve been searching for
you make me proud
you’re my reason to get out of bed and my reason to
smile before I fall asleep
When you reach for the things you’ve always wanted
but never thought you could have,
you light a fire in my soul that no one has ever been able
to spark
you are my everything
