My life was black and white A colorless canvas that stood barren Color was never essential It was never a necessity of mine. Yet somehow in my own dull perception A dot had formed right in the center A bright dot to say the least... A peculiar thing I had never seen before It grew slowly, little by little A storm of color emerged with each inch Brown, Yellow, Blue, Purple... So many different colors My canvas was no longer colorless In fact it was the complete opposite. It was not plain and it was not normal It was now a work of art. People gawked at its odd style Praised it for its unusual strokes A bizarre spectacle to most And a quite unexpected transformation for me... "Who painted this strange piece?" Before I knew it people were staring at me. Puzzling eyes that clapped in my direction "Congratulations on your success" Words that made me realize I was the painter I was the one holding the brush The ****** who painted my own path The one who put color into my life "Sign the painting" They all cheered But now that I know I'm the painter My work of art is not finished yet I have unfinished business in my life I cannot quit now. Knowing that I still haven't found the right colors The right mix of red, green or blue to solve my problems I cannot call this a masterpiece... My life is still a canvas But it's not colorless anymore...

Colorless Canvas
One day in Spring I'll be able to see you Feel the wind blow through my hair Feel the fresh flowers under my hand Feel the love I have been missing for so long One day in Autumn I'll be able to hold you Feel the leaves fall on my head Feel the cool breeze tickle my fingers Feel the warmth of someone special in my arms One day in Winter I'll be able to be with you Feel the coldness of the air hit my cheeks Feel the numbing sensation of snow in my palms Feel the heat of lust and love together as one One day in Summer I'll have to say goodbye Feel the tears slide down my face Feel the tension in my balled fists Feel the pain of distance and farewell One day If I only had one more day... I wouldn't feel my heart breaking I wouldn't feel my heart bleeding I wouldn't feel my life crumble away

One day
My poems are my life They make up everything I am They are what make me human For my heart beats in every one My heart has bled many times And it continues with each word Each line that is written Is a new scar within my heart Every phrase I create Is another crack upon the surface But every poem I complete Is a wound that has been healed My heart will never give up My heart will stay beating It will continue to bleed and I will keep writing.

My heart's determination
Goodbyes never hurt me It's always the memories that follow To live in such a cruel reality A world so insensitive and shallow A goodbye is just a moment But the memories are stuck on replay To think we deserve such torment We remember each and every day A goodbye will not hurt you But the memories will shatter your being Break your heart into pieces Your life may even lose meaning Goodbyes do not hurt you They are only the beginning A life that was once so simple Turned into a life so unforgiving

Goodbyes do not hurt me
I never meant to push you away I just needed to do something that no else could do for me And that was getting over you As much as it hurt me to ignore you To tell you I was too busy to talk Just know I've always been in love with you My heart broke every time I told you goodbye And then turned to dust with every single chance I never took Every moment that was wasted trying not to speak to you I could never be just friends with you And now you've made it clear That I never will... I'm sorry

Sorry
I never tried to face my fears I end up bursting into tears I just want to be in the swim Even though I am not that slim But this year I won't be the same I would not be that so-called "lame" I promise to use some prudence When I boost my self-confidence If you're too skinny or too fat Please remember that you're perfect A friend will give your back a pat It's time to show yourself respect Try to have a conversation To Him who made you beautiful In His eyes there's no exemption He will make your life colorful

Self-esteem
Be my poison and be my drugs Give me lustful kisses and tighter hugs Love me with pain and show me the pleasure Bury me in lust like your hidden treasure Caress my body and stroke my face Pull my hair and let our bodies race Moan your curses and scream your shame Bite my skin in this lustful game Give me more you're my addiction I love the heat and I love the friction Slap me here and scratch me there Show me your eyes, your **** stare Punish me I need to be taught by my master Keep going! Don't stop! I want it to go faster! I'm gonna burst! This deed is almost complete! When we're done lets lather, rinse and repeat.

Lather, Rinse and Repeat
When I first saw this mysterious  guy I thought my heart stopped I tried to ignore it for a while But I failed to So I tried to let it stay that way In fact, I almost forget to breathe Every week, I get to have a chance To take a look at him for a couple of minutes Though a little bit from a far And a chance to listen to him as well Because he's actually a musician too As he tried to press every key from that  piano I can feel that It matches perfectly to the rhythm my heart beats Then one time, our eyes met I got no choice, but to quickly lose my gaze But suddenly I cannot So we stared quite for a while But sad to say that’s just it I meant like a painting where you only get a chance to appreciate such As you look carefully through it And funny to say, that’s simply how we did it

Into your eyes
You told me three simple words. The three words I've always wanted to hear... I pictured us happy I pictured us together... Living our lives through thick and through thin And then you'd say "I love you" Those three simple words... And then our life would begin... It would begin together... But instead we live a lie Instead we live apart Living our lives through regret and through sin That's when you said those three simple words... "I love you" those three simple words It was when our life ended... Because you said it to another... Those three simple words...

Three simple words
When did you become more than just a friend? I don't remember ever giving you permission to drive me crazy... I never asked you to make me fall madly and helplessly in love with you. I blame you, it's your fault! Because of you I can't look you in the face without hurting. I can't speak to you without losing control of what I might say. You make me nervous, you drive me nuts. I want to love you... I want you to love me! I want you to share what I feel. The pain, the passion and the lust. But this is too much. I have to forget you, I have to keep you away. I'm sorry I hurt you, I'm sorry for what I said. I'm sorry for the pain and the tears I made you cry. I'm sorry for losing a friend, but in the end, You will always be more than just a friend...

You were more than just a friend
