Erin B. - Blackout Poetry Notes

Hard Times

You have been going through
hard times for awhile,
but it's gonna get
better now.

Connect with inner happiness -
a fascinating life
is a journey
of smell, touch, and taste.

I was devastating
my weakness, 
that I ruin
everything I touch,
without exception.

Dream together
of beautiful lives,
in a relationship
half crazy
with passionate love.

Do not look to people
to bring happiness.
Only your heart
can be your guiding light,
an intuition
for growth.

I had an overwhelming desire -
a compulsion -
to be full of hope.

It is a good sign
in life
to be safe and uneventful,
and is preferable
to regrets.

I have the time
so we must
fill every cranny
and fly
in lifelong adventure.

I am
a paranoid romantic.

She was searching for
a new beginning
of hope.
Her heart was
an unstoppable tide.
