Wishfully Thinking

MUSE, MOVE ME.



Mirror Mirror
some people find it easier
to fill their heads
with passing thoughts
of fancy
and do nothing
about them
as they go through
their days.
those thoughts
come and go
and remain as
goals to one day strive for
but never actually
have the ambition
to do.
after years of living
these thoughts
go unfulfilled
in the heart
and gradually another
thought enters the mind:
what happened to me?
once that has happened
there can only be one answer
and one place where the blame
can be placed upon.
the answer always lies in the
mirror.



Optimism
Dreams are never failures
no matter what the outcome.
At worst
a dream becomes
the template
for the next wave
of success.



All the beautiful women I've known and You.
It is very easy
to get lost in
thoughts of infatuous
love.
The body gravitates
to those whose visages
most ensnare
the easily enraptured
parts of anatomy.
Such base desire
has fueled our species
for time immemorial.
Could it be all the feelings
of Love and Lust
are just simple
chemical interactions
in our brains
that we have assigned
a deeper emotional resonance
that perhaps has no basis
in reality?
Is Love Real?
We can discuss this
and have no definitive answer
no matter what all the poets
have ever written.
Lust is definitely real
and we have more than enough
proof and shattered hearts
to prove it.


Alonity
I used to think
that I had been in Love.
I sincerely used to believe it
but have since
gone back to look
and have found none of it
was ever truly there.
those words that I have said
are now revealed to be
What they truly were,
emotional blackmail.
I have never fully given my heart
to anyone so purely and so
completely.
It is sad to contemplate such a fact
but it is one that I am ok with
at the present moment.
sometimes being alone
can be the greatest comfort
that no other person can provide.
