Flaws of our image
Brian Ormsby Dec 2017
We were a broken mirror, we weren't perfect, we saw the flaws and we saw the potential, we tried, we didn't hold back but that mirror held an image that could never be fixed only replaced. I could use this mirror but at what cost? Those cracks in the mirror are now my scars, my pieces. I’ll live with it.

I pick up these broken pieces from the floor, I see them shimmering in the light, broken by the hands of a *****, these pieces were the only thing that gave me life, a stranger came beside me a dropped to a knee, collecting the pieces I've yet to receive, ran away with them and vanished into thin air. I'm still alive...

Stepped out my front door, cold breeze I wiped the moisture from my cheek, I couldn't leave the residue, for it was a new day
Same me, old routine, just a new day...

I did not need you
I craved you, your kisses tore me apart,
I couldn't get enough, I was your doormat
Forever there when you needed
Until you moved

You gave my heart somewhere to go you gave it life and I called it home. Around every corner through every turn, I gave my all,  lessons learned. Everyone has a story that justifies their bad decisions. Every mirror reminds me of what we were. I see you in every mirror, a ghost, a soulless image
Let me know what you guys think. Thanks !

Subtle love
Brian Ormsby May 2019
There's nothing better than this moment
while your bundled on my chest
curled up in a ball
& I smell the essence from your flesh

World changing
Brian Ormsby May 2019
You can change my world within a blink of an eye
This is something that I can not deny
You bring my soul from worst to best
With life theres love but thats the test

It so magical the things you've said
Now only dreams can help plan for a life ahead
I've found what I'm looking for
It's you and your love and nothing more

Could this be true love at last
Better than any love of my past
I hope this love forever stays
Forever and ever through-out all days

I have no intension of leaving
Because of the love I'm receiving
The reason,
Is simply cause your breathing

I dream about you every second of the day
So this towards you i say
Nothing will ever tear us apart
Your name will always be engraved in my heart

I wish we could talk 'til the end of day
But Im now running out of things to say
So I'll end this line but you already know
I LOVE YOU more than what I could show
love poetry life kiss poet sweet amazing

— The End —
