Living and Creating

@lovely-wonderfulthoughts

Honestly, I just want to know where to get a good cup of coffee |23|

Fleeting moments

She yearns to feel love; to feel acceptance

Always wondering how things would be if she wasn’t so different

Thinking back at times where she felt missing from her own memories

Over analyzing every spoken word. Making sure no one suspects her biggest “flaw”

Racing heart beats large enough for all to see anytime she thinks about sharing her true self

Holding back moments in time that now seem wasted

How can she go on living when she fears her own reflection?

How will her family react when they learn of her hearts true intentions?

When will time slow down enough to allow a fleeting moment to linger right in front of her?

That’s all life really is; fleeting moments with hopes and false promises

Why can’t everyone be allotted a moment or two to find out who they really are?

A shot in the dark, aimed with the heart

They wonder why she’s changed so much since her tender years

Why she’s so angry at the world

Maybe it’s because the world isn’t fair,

Or maybe she hid for so long that she can’t even find herself

She changed not for herself but for society

Locking away her hearts desires to spare herself the ache that truth brings

All she wants is to be herself without fear of being abandoned

She likes to imagine a life where she can finally be herself

She’s happy again

But, is anyone missing from the picture?

Fear of the unknown keeps those dreams from becoming a reality

I wonder if I would be happy though?

I guess that’s why I continue dreaming of my unknown circumstances hoping I can catch a glimpse of happiness.
