In my life
I
Encountered
Myriad hurdles
And had/have
My fair share
Of setbacks
Along the way,
But
None of them have
Dissuaded me
From continuing to strive
Nor have they caused me
To consider
Giving up, ever
Instead,
I’ve learned
If I simply
Spread my broken wings
They might allow me the freedom
To soar a few
And fly halfway

Her love for me was mellow
Instead of feeling blues
I always felt yellow

She was a weird fellow
The portrait of me she drew
Her love for me was mellow

Every time she says hello
She doesn’t have a clue
I always felt yellow

She called me a marsh mellow
She said I’m her muse
Her love for me was mellow

I sniffed into her pillow
She smells like morning dew
I always felt yellow

Once again she said hello
Watched my heart flew
Her love for me was mellow
I always felt yellow

On her
Sweet velvet
Flaming red leaves
As I took a glimpse
Into her eyes
Suddenly,
I fall and rest
Oh my,
Such  a beautiful feeling
For the soul,
She feels like fall.

I stared down at her face
Not knowing it was our last embrace
I wish I got to say goodbye
But when I knew you were already flying high
I’m sorry I didn’t see
I’m sorry I was blind
To notice that it was you dying inside
I ran to a different place
To escape the memory of your face
But nothing can make me forget
The hatred and the regret

For myself.

Some times it's better to be someone's second choice rather than someone's first mistake.

Her eyes were fiery
While her lips peeled away
Her sun was setting
But her colors never fade
When she bites she is bitter
But when she smiles she is sweet
Like a nectarine emblem
She’s the fruit of life’s tree.
