Close To Being With You
Extreme measures
Our resistance loses its band
We’re losing support
From one another
~ Sakari
I lose myself in moments
At the thought of you
You’re the highlight of all my secrets
If only we could have met
So much younger
~ Sakari
Do I belong here
The way they look at me
I can’t tell if it’s from interest
Or disturbance
~ Sakari
I’m out of place
I’m a shadow in a room
Full of light and life
I’m undead
~ Sakari
I used to be able to cry
Now I can’t even force it out
Unwilling and unable
My emotions disobey me
~ Sakari
Just when I wanted to give up
You needed me
And then I smiled to your smile
~ Sakari
52 Minutes Ago
All the time I want to ignore
This winter feeling in my chest
Your phone keeps you frozen
The blue light directly in your face
~ Sakari
And then you became someone else
A new form completely
I was so glad to know you
This new you
~ Sakari
Be wherever you want
I was going to meet you there in thought
Across the world wasn’t so bad
In the sky for hours to greet your hands
~ Sakari
My poetry moves from your push
The motivation I probably needed
Don’t go back into the sky, anytime soon
Don’t go back to the stars
~ Sakari
Can I be your countdown
Starting from nine
But never reaching zero
Showcasing your dimples
At the thought of me
~ Sakari
The way I’m so behind
I’m catching up with a Sagittarius
She hasn’t said a word yet
Just acknowledging me with her eyes
~ Sakari
Slow Days
When I leave my head down
I see you lifting my chin up
In the palm of your cuddle hand
Suddenly…I believe it all again
~ Sakari
No more girls
No more stress
No more trying to figure things out
No more finding myself
~ Sakari
She leaves and I find you
You leave and she sends a message
Maybe I should turn my phone off
And spend the whole day in bed
~ Sakari
Haven’t had anyone
Touch my heart and mean it
A shard in the palm of their hand
I didn’t mean it
~ Sakari
What’s to need
That’s another human being
I can’t wait for myself to pretend
That it’s all worth it another round
~ Sakari
Of course she says hi
What does that do for me
I respond and let her in
What does that do for me
~ Sakari
