Poetry On Odyssey: Some Hearts

We fall, we stand tall, we hide, and we crawl.

22
Rock heart

Another poem. Hope you all enjoy and find a place that this resonates with you.

Some Hearts

Why do we fear the unknown?

Why do we think we'll be alone?

And why do we try to stop carrying something that'll make us grow?

Were all human we should know.


Some hearts may break us

and time will take us to see that star in the sky.

That will shine bright and teach us how to fly.


Sometimes it feels like a wave that pushes us out of our place.

Nobody tries to stop us, but what if we just want to walk away.

And let our footprints speak for us that say.


Some hearts may break us

And time will take us

To see that star in the sky

That will shine bright and teach us how to fly


Life isn't always what it's supposed to be

I guess that's part of the journey

We fall, we stand tall, we hide, and we crawl

back to the place we feel most comfortable.

We cry, and we laugh, oh the beauty of that, why can't we sometimes accept.


This is where we start, the path that is our part.

We want to be at the other end, from the outside looking in.

But we don't even know where to begin.


And all we know is some hearts make break us

And time will take us to see that star in the sky.

That will shine bright and teach us how to fly.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
