The Music of the Stars (Poem From High School)

The Music of the Stars

I hear it every day and I analyze and listen to the sound. 

It floods my ears and I get lost in the moment, like comfort hugs on a rainy day.

To mirror an image in your mind after a sound of joyous feeling. 

I am watching the scars of emptiness wash away as I listen to the music of the stars.

Tearing to pieces and making it better for my heart. 

Holding the wreckage and casting away bad words.

The thinking of others and long awaited dreams are no one else's. 

But my own words are my passion as I listen to the music of the stars.

Notes and bars are all sung in one accord, of letting things be better today and letting out cries that I know. 

And you’re hoping to sing, but your heart is not into it.

Your mind is to numb to let go. 

If you let me I'll show my heart to yours as I sing you the music you the stars.

Is it Okay to be This Small?

~Is it Okay to be This Small?~

I am a blip in the existence of the universe.

I am small even on Earth.

Yet, you love me.

Yet, you listen.

I lay on my back and look at the stars.

I see the beauty and majesty.

A galaxy that could be out to get me.

A galaxy filled with people I love.

Don't forget Love will find you.

It seeks you out and asks to be let in.

It comes to you even in this world so big.

Even in our mistakes and demons.

The cosmos spinning and dancing.

The dance of the heavens.

Spinning around and around.

Like a woman dancing on her wedding day.

I sow and wear the fig leaves to hide from Love.

I run to be lost even when I want to be found.

In this universe so large.

In this heart I wish I could save.

Love died to be alive again.

To save what I can't save.

In this town where I am so small.

In my room where I feel smaller.

When you love somebody let them know.

When you depart for a long trip don't hesitate to call.

You may be miles away, but we can be connected by love.

Believing that this universe is smaller than we think. 

If I feel small, why do I look at the stars?

If the universe is so large, why do I search for it?

Because my faith is more than this world.

My faith is in Love that saved me. 

I am a blip in the existence of the universe.

I am small even on Earth.

Yet, you listen.

Yet, you love me.
