I'm not going to tell you something that you haven't heard a million times before,
It's not going to be anything new or inspirational, you won't jump out of your seat but I just want to ask you this one question: Where are you right now... And where do you wish you were?
Now a lot of people complain about where they are in life,
Oh I'm too fat, oh no body likes me, I'm too slow, I'm not strong enough, I'm not smart enough.
But when you ask them how they spend their time it's funny how they never spend time doing the things they say they want to be good at.
A person who hates to be fat spends most of their time eating food, and a person who hates being called dumb only watched tv.
So I say to you,
If you change the way you look at things,
The things you look at change.
Do what you want to do, stop making excuses

Don't approach a dog unknown to you
Holding out your hand, making eye contact
You may frighten him
Let him come to you

Don't write a poem uninspired
It won't work out
In good time
Let it come to you

Don't go out there seeking love
Like a child with a butterfly net
Live your life
Let it come to you
“I like you” he whispers as we lay intertwined

the touch of he skin and the way he touches my thigh

the corners of my mouth curl up to the sides

My fingers slide along your skin like the wave of the tide

your goosebumps raise as I trail your sides

tho goosebumps are mine and whats yours is mine.
I am not afraid of love.
I am afraid of being hurt beyond repair.

I am afraid of giving my all to one,
Who may not always be there.

I am afraid of losing myself
And never finding my way back.

I am afraid of falling in love--
If you aren't falling back.
do not permanently love a person
just because they left you
temporarily breathless
still cant catch my breath until now
i cant take my own advice
Appreciate her
and what you have.
Just love her.
Words to live by.

It took me
breakingtearingsmashing
my whole world
for you to read a book.

You never loved me
not like I do you.

Now I have realised
that to pursue you
is not what I want
anymore.

If only you loved me
like I do you.
it makes no sense
how you tousle with my fragile heart.  
you have all these hearts in the palm of your hand yet you always seem to want mine more.  
it makes no sense
how you kiss her goodbye just to kiss me hello, you have her already why do you need me too?
it makes no sense
how you love her but you're in love with me, love isn't like this.
it makes no sense*
how I know exactly what you do,
but I stay, I let you use and take from me knowing how deeply in love with you I am.
Me vs her
You love her
You like me
You still miss her
Yet you miss me
She's stunning
And I'm okay
I want you more than anything everyday
I don't want to lose you to her
You say I won't
But it's hard to believe
When she won't leave
