Anxious

Image result for man in shadow images

Forget to act,
Let your mask slip,
Stop playing for people,
Especially the ones who do not mean enough.
Be yourself,
Who you are,
To hell with anything else.

You have spent half your life trying to live up to expectations,
Ones you cannot surpass,
The other half worrying about people,
Who do not deserve your time.

They caused the anxiousness that you feel,
They put it there,
So why do you care about anything they have to say?
Fuck them,
Leave anything they say,

Way over there.

Stars

It's all the little things, That make us who we are, Taking comfort in the sea, Staring at the stars, Long conversations after midnight, Coffee at all hours. We crave laughter that sings in our souls, These are the things that enthral our lives, Ignites our hearts, Our dreams shoot to the stars and back, Makes us understand what life is all about.

Image Of You

It’s the quietness that gets to me, I know it shrieks the truth, Every situation is replayed a thousand times within my head, If Ive made a mistake, It chills me to the bone, Gnaws at my brain, Makes me feel a little less happy at home. The darkness frightens me, For it allows me to have crystal clear clarity, Every wrong step, I now know the way, Too late for me, I have lost my way. Through all the broken pieces that make up my life, I see haphazardly, A kaleidoscope of whirlwinds, And still... I always see you. Whenever I am in need, Your memory comes to me, Softens every blow, The image of you from long ago, Soothes my torn and worn soul, Allows me to carry on, At least for a little while more. © 2019 MK AC Nevin-Crooks Love Life Poetry

Scotch Tape

Our hearts are no longer kept on our sleeves, Those have all disappeared. Now we have taped our heart back together again, Scotch tape stuck best, What is left? We are a crumbly mess. Every morning we stare in the mirror, Hate what we see, But what should we be doing in reality? Applauding, Celebrating, We have survived, We are still alive, Fuck me! We are warriors of the toughest kind. © 2019 MK AC Nevin-Crooks Love Life Poetry
