Poem 9-21

Me time
Just me and my thoughts today
Ridding myself of anxiousness
Peace be with me

Stillness and calm
An agenda of none
Nestled in the rocks
Unsure of why he's not the one

The cool breeze having its way.
Making me positive for sanity's sake
As I stopped myself from being my same ol me
Fed up with being best friends with happiness's heartache

i decided it was time that i road about town
to discover its soul, clear my mind
to free my heart, and find my home
stopped here to question whether if what Im searching for I would ever find

tormented by loneliness, a want inside of me
for so long Ive been incapable to share
a silence within, too loud
for anyone but me to hear

I met my new friend right then on this Saturday afternoon
he was tough and mysterious
and had deep brown skin
he saw life in my eyes and without touching me was kind
he made me feel beautiful as he manipulated the breeze to play in my hair
his peacefulness flowed through me
his gentleness replaced friends that had left me behind

he listened to my fears
as I sat as his feet
he comforted me with new dreams
as we shared our defeats

I admired how every branch, every being
exploited  his goodness
but his strength and character
was bothered not by their rudeness

not seeking a hello or a goodbye
or a mention of his name
I fell in love with him b/c he promised me he'd be there when I needed him again
Thank you James
