If not love, then we have to survive it.
VESMIRIf not love, then we have to survive it.
VESMIRToo many of us have grown up just too early.
VESMIRAnd that is how time heals, not by erasing but by blurring all the memories.
VESMIRBut fear is love that has been convinced that it never belonged.
VESMIRShe is the old school hard love, your modern brittle love can’t afford to carry.
VESMIRMy god! this love it will make a fool out of us all.
VESMIRWhatever I feel is not a choice, but dwelling on it is, so I stand up and walk and walk and walk a w a y.
VESMIRI am not what I write but I want to be.
VESMIRToo much of what I write takes me back to you.
VESMIRI’m still figuring out, how to talk about how I feel- which is a lot.
VESMIRThese poets and their metaphors lied to me/ you never felt like a mountain I wished to climb/ or a stream I would let myself float in/ or a scent I was dying to bottle in/ these poets lie when they talk of love.
VESMIRI remember my mother whispering me every night, if you don’t hold that little light inside you, the universe will let go off the hold of you.
VESMIRThe voices in your head are lying, i tell you this world never stopped you from flying.
VESMIRYou out of all, have a hand to hold.
VESMIRYou don’t know how to love, so you give it all. But isn’t that how one should love? by giving all of it.
VESMIRFor once I wanna look back and not sigh.
VESMIR
