Day 15

Balancing on a silver lining
I can only hold on for so long
When I fall, will I fly
Will I crash to the ground
Will you be there to catch me?
Will I see the stars like never before
Will I thread moonlight through my wings,
Or fall like the kings of yesterday?
Will I burn, will I cry
Will I light up the night
Can I be everything you want from me?
I guess it's time to take that step,
Go over the edge
See you on the other side.

Day 16

I swallowed another galaxy tonight-
Cramming stars down my throat,
Gulping planets as though gasping for air-
But the black hole in my gut was not appeased.

Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.
