They say happiness is a state of mind
but for me that just isn't true,
because happiness, as I know it
begins and ends with you.
...and it has ended
Pleasant nap time
Windows shining through
The filtered sun right amount
Please stand still
Like a broken clock
I wish it didn’t count
Nap time should be a freebie
On a winters's day
We parted ways

Neither begging for the other to stay
I watched her go
And
So fell the first snow

Then came spring
The season where nature sings

Like the seasons
Everything has a reason

Life goes on...
I miss her,but I smile for she is happy.
Time has eased my pain.

When I write poems
I don’t just lump words together
I really mean it by heart
Would she believe my words?
Or would she think of it as a joke?
She has had a very rough past
Struggling with commitments
Hope she thinks my words aren’t just being blurted out randomly and knows I mean it
I never felt that kind of love; the one where it consumes you and makes you feel whole. I never felt that, until I met you.

Once upon a time
Truth and fib went for a walk.
Fib tumbles and fall
Truth chuckles, supples and walked
In past, present and future.
I refuse to be the moon.
I will not merely reflect the light of another.
Standing in the shadows.
I was born to shine and spread my own light.
I will light up your sky.
And you will feel my heat.
