If humans lived in the clouds
Instead of on the ground,
We would look down and wish
That we could swim in the oceans
And wiggle our toes in the sand.
We would daydream endlessly
About walking barefoot in the dew-drenched
Grass. We would imagine picking flowers
In the meadow and making a colorful bouquet.
But instead we live on the ground;
We dream about flying to the clouds
And leaving everything behind except our dreams.
Can you blame us?

The Days With No Sun
Sometimes we fear truth over reality. But things get dark and heavy and we play the blame game. We end up hurting others or ourselves even. We don't think before we act or we don't say before we do. This is the evolution of my madness. A cluster of rants and thoughts and poems for you guys. Everything is written how I wanted it to be rants will be long with few pauses and there will be mistakes I might have skipped over. Aha. Poems at the beginning from when I was 15 years old to now when Im 18. Truly a visual of my writing evolution. Edited by @ChemicalStarling who writes a lot but never posts! Read on, loves. I'll see you on the other side...Complete
