A glint and a shimmer
As a freshly fallen snow
An opportunity gleams
A low and humble glow
A chance at happiness
Has just walked in the door
Played tag with my eyes
Then left me wanting more
Fun and games lost their luster
Gravity has set in
This ones the real deal
Time to play for the win
Play it cool like a cat
Stay aloof and at ease
Can’t let him see me sweat
Or my mind under seize
A-game at all times
Be gentle and coy
It wont be as easy
To win over this boy
Like a sweater unraveling
A tug on a string
I’ve lost all control
And smothered this thing
He wants to flee
I would do the same
If I couldn’t breath
With someone dousing my flame
Needy and clingy
Words I detest to no end
Describe me so perfect
And have become my best friends
My excitement uncontained
Here I broke my new toy
I’ve suffocated happiness
Then chased away joy
To dream for someone special
Then scare them away from me
Me efforts all for naught
For I’m my own worst enemy
I'm 28 so I guess depending on where you fall in your life line I can either know a lot about life or next to nothing. Like most things in this world, its all about perspective. I don't know that I have anything profound to say that hasn't already been said or some wisdom about the world that hasn't already been won. All I know is my life, what happens in it, where its been, where I hope to see it go and that it means something to someone. This is my life as I know it.
About Me
- Noelle Lani
- Life should be lived as play according to the phiolsopher Plato and me? I happen to agree. I am a very social person, I almost don't know how to communicate without flirting with people. I enjoy kicking back and spending a night in, but I'm also known for heading out for a night on the town, or just a midnight jaunt to the jungle gym. I believe that life is too short to be angry all the time, but you might often hear me complaining about some life stress. I think I just like to get things off my chest so I can move forward. Sometimes I write really dreary things because its easier and safer to be sad at the helm of my laptop, truly I am a happy person. I aim to be the life of the party, if I can get the crowd laughing and having a good time, then my work is done. It is my hope that my writing means something. I write because it makes me feel better, but at the end of the day if sharing one of my experiences can help someone else not feel so alone or help them learn from my mistakes, then I've created something worth while.
