Open Hearts

To want to see the best in people, is why most of us keep trying. Sometimes those same efforts are also the reason we wear heartache like a Scarlet A- stained indefinitely by naively hopeful premises. I only hope that my girl children have an easier time discerning between the real and the fake. Always remembering that to care is never a mistake.

Also keeping in mind that charisma and confidence have the potential to sell you any number of dreams for as long as you are in the market.

Anyway, good and honest people will always exist though, just last night he tells me, " Ahhh shit, I think you're going to make want to be your best friend"...That remains the sweetest thing a heterosexual male has said to me yet. Not, "You're beautiful..." No. A simple, "I like you as a person". And THOSE are the true gifts of having an open heart ðŸ’œ

Natural opiates

Natural opiates, Agitated we tap nervously on the systematic flow of love and light Angry veins swell and we spill over Telltale signs Some things even the blind can see Straight to the brain Piercing Penetrating passions The rush unimaginable Crashing down equally as mysterious and equally as demanding These sad stories; the only moments we can believe in. To be sober, a fertile ground for suspicion and insecurity Is it only real because it hurts? Treading the needle Today we sparkle Tomorrow we burn Walking contradictions Beautiful beginnings Tragic ends? Blood ties Strength and weakness But you're the only one to make me try for you Fiends of all the small ways we die everyday I can't help it but with the mention of your name Your presence is implied Around my throat and by my side Overdosing Overwhelmed by feeling Like air we reach the ceiling Fading Sensory overload reuniting on the floor We are sinking.
