Clovers, big and small,
Soft and rich in luckiness.
Trust would form in us,
Connected like the leaves.

Mud, seemed as smooth as marble,
Splashed over melted chocolate.
Although built brick by brick,
Creativity sped it up.

Tiny lost details used to come from our hands.
Forever fun in bending paper.
Letters flipped over by pen.

Together like the stars and the moon.
Raining sparkles, we were one . . .

Until mountains crashed the charming greens,
Greens filled with pure luck.
They shouted and cried,
Suffocating through day and night.

Nature disobeyed the mud,
Right beneath our feet.
Smoothness was swept away,
By the howling wind.

We got split up into stages.
One lower, one higher.
The mountain became uneven.
One smooth, one spiked.

Great deep cracks began to appear in our circle.
And now it seems that even our stepping stones differ.

No feelings, only doubts.
It has been a long, long time . . .

My dear old friend,
How do you feel about me?
Pink is the colour of friendship. Clovers are the symbol of luck.

You meet a person so like you. You guys do so many things together, and you even have your own code and everything.

Then, one day-and it doesn't matter how.

You guys separate.

my luck comes in threes,
and i'll tell you why.

my head is full of trees and tales and stories
(that is my luckiness)
and i believe in luck and love and magic.
i trust that the world will keep turning
(and so it turns for me)
and my tongue trills three-note thrifts,
when it has nothing else to do.

i have three parents instead of two and
three brothers instead of none
i have no sisters and fingers meant for paper and pen -

i have three boys who love me but
i only love one of them back
(and isn't that
the luckiest of all?)

i have poems, songs and stories
i have paintings, sketches, doodles -
and my eyes burst three colors
tangled and swirling.

i am threes and throats and throbbings.
i am feelings and thoughts you can't quite put into words.
i am lucky,
and luck finds those who know it

poetry like drops of water,
is tumbling off my fingers,
whimsical and sugar-sweet, and all because of you.

poetry for
your lips in my hair,
the teasing snarl you make when you gnaw at my ear,
poetry for your hand squeezing mine.

if i could sing, i would sing it,
the way you love me.

i'm writing poetry for your arms around my waist
or slung across my shoulders.
i'm writing poetry for the stars in your eyes,
for the smell of you on my clothes,
for your laughter.
i'm writing poetry for the things you make me feel:
for the want and the wonder,
for the luckiness, the love.

i'm writing poetry for your tongue in my teeth and your heart in my hands.
i'm writing poetry for you knowing me to my core,
and i'm writing poetry because you're my best friend.

i'm writing poetry for the **** and the silly,
i'm writing poetry for the laughter and the light.
i'm writing poetry for us,
and i'm not going to stop.

i'm writing poetry for whispered sweetness and shouted teasing,
i'm writing poetry for hooked fingers and muffled laughter.
i'm writing poetry for hearing your heartbeat,
i'm writing poetry for swinging our hands like summer's already come.
i'm writing poetry for feeling you,
i'm writing poetry for the scratch of your stubble and the nudge of your nose
on my neck, my face, laughing the whole time.
i'm writing poetry for our taste in music and books
for our sense of humor,
for our stupid love story,
and i'm writing poetry
for you.

Let's hear it.
Let's embrace the ugly.
I mean, considering it ugly is an opinion.
I'm sorry, I just breathe really loud when I get excited.
I feel like I'm waiting for something.
Something I've anticipated for.
Prayed for.
Cried for.
I think God is smiling at me.
Whether it's out of pride or mockery, I do not know.
But I am loving it.
I can feel my happiness behind my tongue.
I can smell my eagerness.
Some say it's a weakness.
But I am loving it.
At around 4 am, I heard thunder clap.
Ha, God has such a funny laugh.
I told Him I was excited for whatever he had in tow.
It started to rain.
Tears of joy.
I remained thankful even though nothing came.
I asked God for a sign that would indicate my luckiness.
I didn't see a thing.
So I kneeled down and said thank you.

Loneliness or luckiness,
Mean or meaning:

I don't know anymore.
I'm ashamed to care so much.

You are a precious component to my life
Each day I see you,
Life feels a little more complete
And most the time I'm drowning
In my own self-devised riptide
Yet you always jump in to save me
Nothing I can do
Or say
Will ever be enough
To show you just how much
I truly love you
I have found platonic love
Of the forever variety
It all starts and ends with you
When I wake up in the morning
I am overwhelmed with luckiness
Knowing that whatever storm may come today
You are there beside me
And each night as I lay awake
On the cusp of sleep
Your name on my lips are the last words
I speak
I don't understand how I could be so blessed
To have someone like you
Love every ounce of me
No matter how many negative things I tell you
There is no doubt
In my mind our friendship could ever end
I've told everyone they are poetry
But you,
My sweet darling,
Are the most beautiful poetry of all
Maybe that's biased
But you inspire
You are the truest and best soul I've come to know
Really, you make me whole
You fill the voids I think I have
And sometimes I don't realize it
But I am ever so appreciative of you
My one true best friend
You, my sweet darling,
Are me
And I am
You
Thank you beebeeb

Sometimes it feels like your a rocket 

traveling at the speed of light

The fire works that burn so bright

Like a comet flying across the skies, 

A burning flame that never dies

And nothing can bring us down 

We're right where we belong 

We've never ever felt so strong

We're right where we belong 

Right where we belong

We got stars in our palms 

Lucky charms on our arms

can't believe we've come this far

Can you see the view?

I believe that you do

Never felt happiness like this

Must be a product of luckiness

I wished, hoped and prayed for so long

that the vision I'd seen 

Would become a reality 

And now I'm starting to see it

Now I'm starting to believe 

I'm getting to where I need to be

We got stars in our palms 

Lucky charms on our arms

can't believe we've come this far

Can you see the view?

I believe that you do

Never felt happiness like this

Must be a product of luckiness

Never alone!

Your crazy vibe
which is always so
stirred emotionally has
saved your jollying
laughter!
The sense of relief
is surely the lead-ier
and prominent factor!

The saveable are lucky
because the peacefulness
is restored inside you!
The closest are lucky
because the innocuousness is
saved inside you!
I know the favorably
luckiness and the fortunate
positions!

Don’t worry!
The steadfastness has
a lot to do with the achievements!
Don’t be sad because
you are a wiseacre and a goalie!

I wonder how,
Seriously,

The people you've *******
The drugs you sniffed and coughed
The cars you've driven and not even bought
The red lights you jumped and not even caught
The guys who's girls you've kissed behind their backs
The girls who said come again and back to their sack
The arrogance of a man you just knew he could
The luckiness he exhumed when he knew that he would

As he takes it for granted and all in his stride
And this is the surprise that he really is,

Still Alive
