Please

By Mac Guerreiro Please be patient with me,Eye know it’s not easy,My emotions are big and they hurt when they crash,Eye’m sorry to bring you into that,You’re the safest place eye’ve ever know,Not because you fail to challenge me,But because you see my soul,Even when eye want to hide it most,It’s cracked and broken,Light missing …

Conflicted

By Mac Guerreiro It’s as if the wires are crossed,Can’t seem to straighten them out,On one hand eye want to be ultimately what pleases you,On the other,Eye want to be me and proud,The battle eye’ve fought since birth,That’s what it feels like,Catches up with me at every turn in this life,Embarrassed,That’s the word,And parts of …

Resist

By Mac Guerreiro Eye resist the urge to look them up,Why look to what eye could never be?Just when Eye’m getting comfortable,Comfortable being me,Naturally,“Foolish girl”Foolish indeed,Thinking you can escape the chains of this society,Its mentality,It’s rules,And boundaries,Foolish indeed to resist,Now it feels impossible to persist.

Stay

By Mac Guerreiro Eye’ve never wanted to run so badly,As you lay asleep next to me,Eye’m my own worst enemy.

Honey

By Mac Guerreiro Honey on your lips,Honey like me,Drink and we’ll see,Succeed to be bound,Success brings the heavenly sounds.

Shadows

By Mac Guerreiro Sometimes this all feels temporary yet more temporary than most things,Sometimes it feels like borrowed time,Sweet, sweet time it is yet borrowed nonetheless,Voices shyly whisper in the depths, reminding me of my fears,Their whispers let me know Eye’m not here,Burrowed in my head eye come up for air, yet Eye’m still neck-deep …

Wild

By Mac Guerreiro Find me at the core,The places surrounded by folklore,Find me in the moon,From her fullest to the new,Find me when you’re not looking,For you won’t otherwise,When you look too closely you’ll fall for my disguise,The one eye’ve been forced to forge,As to hide from those seeking to harm,Those whom cannot love without …

Tracking

By Mac Guerreiro So many things eye’d like to do,Skills to learn,Accomplishments to earn,Yet eye can barely track the seconds,Can barely keep it moving,For fear of time passing,For fear of losing,Then eye find myself procrastinating,Only to shame myself for wasting,As hard as eye try,It’s impossible to keep track,At times it feels that all eye have,Is …

Sunken

By Mac Guerreiro How to say this?Eye feel hopeless,And no words can help this right now,No matter how true,This is what eye was telling you,Eye contribute to the issue,Without even trying,Just that thought sends me spiraling,It’s not your doing,Or for you to do anything about,Just wish eye didn’t feel like the only way is to …

The Deepest Gratitude

Eye know you read this,You did so long before my posts became riddled with you,What beautiful riddles they are,All that to say,Eye like to choose my words carefully,And this time is no acception,Now here’s for a bit of self-deprecation,For the parts of me that don’t feel worthy of love,To experience you even this long is …
