Weight of Words

My Colorado

They're that feeling you get,
standing in the pouring rain
on a hot summer night.
They're like the admiration
you have for a starlit sky.

A feeling you get when
you're uncertain of love because it's scary.
Your favorite horror movie late at night,
while in the covers, your face is buried.

A chaotic masterpiece that
with every feeling, you can relate.
Every damaged beautiful inch
that you'd never want to change.

The adrenaline you get
driving fast down an old dirt road.
The breath taking view
from the mountains in Colorado.

The change in your breathing
because of the high altitude.
Your favorite song lyrics that
in a bad state of mind, once saved you.

They're the severe weather you're addicted too.
The one you'll always chase, but it never finds you.

They're the one you'll want,
but could never have.

The one you'll always have feelings for
that everyday you'll need to combat.

Colorado
because it's one of the only places
I've ever loved.

This person is not just anybody.
