we stared into the woods but we found no words

'Tell me one thing: what kind of a person are you dreaming to be?'

He asked, his voice in the wind, his hands tightly gripping, securing mine from the cold that is coming from the woods rushing in.

I don't make sound

Breath in the fresh air

The gloom of early morning wake.

For as long as you are here

I want to be what you need to be

The best version of yourself.

Instead,

I say nothing

I have too much too say

How to start

Without revealing the end

Just not yet

I don't want to be reminded that everything will have to break

When reality wakes

And claims me for itself.

I don't know you

Out of this dream

How can I love you when you are not even real?

(Don't pay any mind to my subconscious: she is trying to tame me and be master of my life and keep me sane and my feet on the ground just so when I die they wouldn't have to say 'shame she lost her mind she was a promising bright little one'. She is losing a fight: you can't give up on something that kept you alive when night couldn't get darker than life; when veins looked like beautiful flowers ready to open up )

I talk all of the time

But when it is the right one

I can't bear to say something and then have to watch you leave

Leaving me alone with my thoughts my demons fears

Because I said too much

And it turned out the time was right

But this thing were playing out

Pretending was only ours

Was too young

For proclamations of never ever till death do us apart.

'A person not afraid to love and be loved' I say

He smiles and leans in to plant

A kiss

On my frozen lips

To shut me up.

'What a nonsense you talk, you messed up, little mine.'
