Her heart, like ice, as cold as a winter's day. Her tears trickling softly down her cheeks like the first snowfall at Christmas. The yearning of her soul for the warmth of a bright Summer's sun. Her world, changing like the colours of the leaves in Autumn. She searches for her identity like it were a hunt at Easter. A powerful decision to embrace life as it comes, like a New Year's resolution in June.

Polish and shine your existence,
For you are gold -
Inside and out,
Molded by the fiery flames of trials and tribulations.

Giving him all of her happiness,
She watched him walk away,
Leaving her empty once again,
Without a thought to spare,
Never looking back,
He walked away gleefully as if he were renewed.
Led forward by his hopeful vision of a future,
His presence disappearing,
And all she saw then was a door,
A dark, creeking old, blue door.

“Sweethearts”

Imagine thinking you have it all figured out,
naive to what love is really about.
Holding hands through the halls,
Pictures of you two together on the walls.

I remember I burned CDs for you,
ditched my friends just to be with you.

Voted, “most favorable couple to get married.”
If only we could’ve ditched the bags we carried.
Looking at those rings scared me,
I braved the thoughts cuz you were the one I’d marry.


I thought I found the one,
back when all you had to worry about was fun.
I knew once the fun was over, you’d be done,
Because every time it got too serious, you’d run.

Coffee lips.

so bitter

yet so sweet.

You keep me awake

yet you make my heart palpitate.

Do I need you

or want you?

Coffee lips.

Your taste

I always crave.

Your bitterness

I cannot avoid.

You surge through me

like a drug

You flow

just like blood through my veins,

Coffee lips.

The residue sticks

to my sleeping lips

and by your taste

you wake  me.

Coffee lips.**

So bitter

yet sweet.

So lively

yet deadly.

I need you

more than I want you.

em
and there are
7 billion people
in this world of ours

and yet
i ache
because i feel
so very alone

i suppose
deep down
i deserve it
for reasons i don't know
its nearly midnight and i have to be up at 4:00 am

Love

Well, everyone should know what it means,
It means by patient,
By kind... not by rude and self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no records of wrongs,
Love is not evil,
but it's rejoices with truths,
always trust.. hopes.
It will never fails.

Flowers
Are a reminder
That without a little rain
We wouldn't be able to bloom,

Without clouds
And a little bad weather
We wouldn't be able to smell
Their divine fragrant perfume.

Flowers
Are a reminder
That we need gloomy days
So we can highly value
The sun's radiant,
Life-powering, life-giving light,

Because without
Any form of darkness
We wouldn't appreciate
The glorious clear-blue skys
And the gift of precious daylight.

By Lady R.F. (C)2017
Seeds, water, sunshine,
Sunflowers,
In your eyes.

Let them grow,
Let them grow,
A story is desperate to be told.

Once I was a flower too,
Sunflowers,
In my eyes,

But now I'm here to look after you,
Let you grow,
Let you grow,
A story is desperate to be told.
