Kissing you is like consuming a cuppa hot chocolate on a winters day - needing and wanting
Your lips on mine is life's guilty pleasure

He stared at her with predatory intent
A stare that made him feel content
A Crooked smile across his face
In her heart he knew his place
Breathing erratically going red in her face
He gave her a feeling no one could replace
And even though she still felt shy
It was only with him that she could fly

Be not dependent like a scavenger
Instead be a survivor, a worrior that fights for survival

I stand before you
baring my naked soul
my heart sizzling - a piece of coal
all my walls broken down
its in your love, I want to drown
all my insecurities ripped to shreds
an explosion of feelings being fed
your hands send me into wild frenzy
you are my potent drug

she was a paradox of emotions
he was the only one who
could handle her madness
and together they danced
like wildfire being encouraged by wind

And there I was
climbing my ladder of insecurities
finding what makes me tick
like a bomb bound by time
Trying to create something
that is mine
Consoling myself that all will be fine

The skies the limit, so they say, so I try to reach it every day
I drop to my knees fold my hands to pray
And hope to God for my strength to stay.

I never thought that I would see this day
When all my fears come out to play
I tried to hide them deep inside
But it's forced itself to the outside

How am I to put them back away?
Do I just dig a hole bury them in clay?
Do I close my eyes hope they go away?
Or do I stand tall and vanquish them away?

she lay her head upon his chest
his heartbeat - rhythmic poetry
put her demons to rest
messianic beats understood by her soul
his gentle touch stroking her hair
assuring her he will always be there
embraced in each others arms
cacooned away from any harm
tempestuous emotions at a rising alarm
the only time there's a storm before the calm

A barren land
Surrounded by desert sand
All I see is a castle ruins
My inner voice speaks
"go forth and seek"
What this looks like
May not be as it seems
I follow this voice
Not regretting my choice
For what I discover in there is remarkable
A hidden paradise just for me
Where I can be happy and free

There's so much I want to say to you but when I'm with you
All I have is words unspoken

gold burns in fire yet it shines
a constant reminder of our loves time
heated arguments that scorched our soul
polishing it vigorously to glitter like gold
of all the words that were said
there is this three we never will regret
I LOVE YOU, I ALWAYS WILL
in this moment time stood still
we gazed at each other
a galaxy of stars
no room for distractions
just the magnetism of our hearts

What is best friend?
A best friend is the little puffs of mashmellows in a cup of hot chocolate on a cold day
The sprinkles on your favourite ice-cream
The syrup on your waffles
The blanket that warms you on a winters day
The dew that shines like diamonds on a flower
All the little things that make you enjoy and appreciate what you have
A friend gives a special meaning to your life
One that you didn't know existed until they walked in
They are the light in your darkest hour
They are a reminder that goodness still does exist

Do you know me as I am or do you see all that you can;
Too quick to pass a judgment without knowing what is true.
Where were you when I was down and blue?
You could've seen me you could've knew.
You chose to walk away n' watch me suffer from afar,
While leaving you left the door ajar.

Why did you do it? You could've stayed. You could've helped me, I would've changed.
My soul would have been glowing without even knowing, but it was you , it was you

I rise like an ocean tide, swelling up no place to hide.
I know that I am better, I know that I can.
And what is this life if I can't take a stand?

My minds a mess
I can't contest
Confined by the prison in my head
My thoughts are fed
I'm no longer able to get out
Even if bang on the bars and shout
There's no warden
Coz my heart has hardened
And I'm now left to my own vices

I lie awake, unable to put my thoughts at rest.

Visions of you fill up my mind
I smile just thinking you're one of a kind
You have stood by me through times of unrest
Even though I wasn't at my best

You encouraged me, motivated me, held me when I cried
And told me "It's okay at least you tried"
"We can get through anything" is what you always say;
"As long as we have each other, believe and pray"

I'm only strong coz of you
You are the only one that helps me through
My pillar, my strength, my shelter from the storm
It's coz of you we can face it all

You have burnt your mark onto my soul
I'm now branded for life
That even after death your mark will reside
For my eternal soul lives for you

You are an undiscovered gem
Rare and beautiful
Your worth does not depreciate
Just because people didn't find you yet

I shall open the door
for you to see
it's always gonna be
you and me
going on our lifes trip
holding each other so we don't slip
my heart freely given to you
in a glass case
putting my life in your hands
i'd never forget your face
you are what my most intimate dreams
are about
it's just you always you
i'd never want out

You are the voice in my head
I sing to remember
I sing to forget
making me lose control
of situations and wreck my soul
though I wished you'd go
without you I'd feel hollow

I feel it hanging over, calling out to me.
Enveloped in my feelings, the answers I can’t see
I try so hard to get away; crying when I begin to pray

Coz we have a talent inside;
A strength that we don’t know;
A strength that’s untried
One to call on, when times are low

Be the guiding star in your own life first
Before you can guide others
Remember you need to stick your pieces together
Before helping someone to stick theirs

I lay awake in bed
Unable to put my thoughts at rest
They argue with each other - noises in my head
Why do they do it to me
When I'm so fatigued
I do not have the strength anymore
Just wish I could shut the door
The door that let's them out
Makes me wana scream and shout
I have no control over them
My mind can't seem to comprehend
Why is it only at night
These thoughts come out to fight

Believe in better - that's what she said
to the voices that quarrelled in her head
though she knew things may never change
she refused to let go - feeling deranged
pain began to feel like pleasure
a sense of eroticism - newfound treasure
a feeling bound just to her
with silver handcuffs covered in fur
masked with a golden eye patch
a body with stories in every scratch
fevered madness loomed over
she could never get enough of her lover

there she stood mirrored in her reflection
a flame dancing on water

In his touch was the warmth of the sun
That melted her cold heart
With each d
                                r
                         o
                                       p..
Her anger released
Replaced with pure passionate love

You were once a stranger that became my friend;
I felt somet'n I couldn't comprehend
Your smile lit up my life like wildfire
I instantly felt my soul rise higher
I was drowning in feel'ns of love and care
That if you left me I wouldn't bear
You became my priceless treasure
And baby I love you beyond measure

In the dullness of the day
I feel a sense of belonging
A yearning happiness
Unfulfilled by the sun shining
Is it weird to feel this way?
To find comfort in the dark and dull

There's such beauty on a r a i n y day
The sound of the r
                                    a
                                          i
                                                  n
                                             d
                                        r
                                               o
                                                         p
                                                   s
hitting the ground
As if they trying to make musical sounds
The patterns I see as they drop
Just makes me want to stop and watch

There's such beauty on a r a i n y day
If only more people could say
They don't stop to take notice of this beauty
Coz they are all in a rush to perform their duties

If only one would stop and say, "what a beautiful day hooray! "
If only they would rejoice to see
This natural beauty that comes for free

Everything beautiful comes with
a little imperfection
even a rose has thorns

For the fears within you grow
When you feed them
Every uncertainty, doubt, lack of self esteem
Helps these fears manifest stronger
Providing them with a power you eventually will be unable to control
Starve these fears
Starve them so much that they fade away
Think positively
Think happily
Believe, have faith in yourself
Love yourself

In silence I hear the words creep through my mind;
Latching onto my thoughts like a parasitic vine.
Darkness surrounds me with no room for light;
Yet I somehow feel quite alright.
It has a warmth, a comforting that only I can relate too;
Something that makes me feel like I'm going to make it through.
A safe haven built just for me to escape;
From life's dreaded escapades

You are beautiful, capable and amazing
You were born with a purpose - a purpose that you will fulfill when the time is right
Sure things may not always be great. You do have your days where you feel incapable of anything including getting out of bed
You question your need and purpose. You question your worth and capabilities
But remember that is just a phase
It's like a passing storm that will eventually give rise to a beautiful day. Never doubt yourself
Embrace your individuality, your sexuality, your cultural identity
Be proud of yourself
As long as your are a good human being - that's all that matters
We all are of the same language - the language of humanity
Stand proud

She once was whole
now she's torn apart
a strong soul
with a broken heart
fighting a losing war
detached from herself
like a shooting star
sipping from her cracked cup
yet she still doesn't give up

Sitting in the darkness, No strength to fight
I suddenly see a silhouette, surrounded by bright light
shielding my eyes coz it's difficult to see
I hear a voice say, "take my hand, you'll be free"
I reach out in a desperate attempt
To get away from this murkiness
but the little voice in my head whispered
hold on tight, your time will come
don't take the easy road, don't run
this light is just an illusion, to create in you a little confusion
the devil is trying to sway your faith, make you a rebel
But stay strong and show him, by the hand of God he will tremble
this murkiness will transform you into
a Lotus Flower
showing you at the end, who holds unimaginable power

My pen glides smoothly across the page
Like a fine wine that has sumptuously aged
Revealing innumerable sensations felt
The sight of it just makes my heart melt
Each alphabet curved in delicate strokes
Taking my time so I don't choke
Penned down thoughts in a sequential fashion
Filled with love and firey passion

Anger pulses through my veins
All that remains is this undying rage
Supressed for far too long
Damaging all that mistakenly comes in my way
I cannot contain all that wishes to come out
Like the aftermath of a hurricane
Debris of emotions scattered everywhere
With no ability, no strength left to clean up
All I have is deep regret
For the situation I was unable to prevent
But how am I to blame?
I tried for far too long
My jar of emotions was overfilled
It had to flow out sometime or the other

Run wild - an unbroken stallion
Strong and determined
Held down by nobody but you
The limits that define you are what you set forth
Your ability and capability is within your control

He kissed her - brought her back to life
With the realization that it was him
she needed all along
He is both her storm and shelter from the rain
Her anger and calmness
Her turmoil, anxiety and peace
It's madness but it's what she needs
An insane love story

Our   life   is   like   an   alphabet   soup
Made   up   of   scrambled   letters   that   we   can   decoded   and   give  
meaning   to
We   can   create   anything   we   want
We   just   have   to   believe   and  
pursue   it

You entered my life
An unpredictable storm
Filled it with strife
Now my soul is torn

There's a void within me
Nobody can see
A dark abyss
I cannot miss
There's no end to what I feel
My heart feels like it's made of steel
With the full moon rise
I'm taken by surprise
I feel the transformation
The fear within me has dissipated
I feel myself become elated
I am a coin with two different sides
Just going along this rough ride
