I lay out my heart
in these lines
Hoping that you'll understand
But I feel so broken
Because you fail to comprehend
The depth of the pain that I endure
Feeling lost and insecure
Where are you when I need your hand
And why Do I feel like you do not even care?

Unmasked

If I show you...
Will you stay?
Pieces of me
That fill me with shame
And yet some
Make me feel awesome...

I try so hard to conceal
All my flaws
When I smile
And lie,
"Everything is fine".

Slow suicide
To feel more alive
I am am mess...
Can you fix me?
Or will you leave me?

In Love With U

If wishes where horses
I'd ride them to you swiftly
For I long for your kisses
That binds like a spell
Your single touch sets me ablaze
Like a flame to a hay stack
Into your eyes I gaze
And see butterflies
all around me...
Please come
Quench my thirst!

Wishes

I whisper
my wishes to the wind
Hoping the gods will grant them
For the God in Heaven seems busy
To listen to my petitions

Lost in You

If loving you makes me insane
Then I never wanna be sane
If loving you makes me wrong
Then I never wanna be right

I lost myself the day I found you
And I hope I stay lost in you
I doubt you love me like I love you
But I don't mind at all

Rose

I can steal you
And take you far beyond pain and misery...

I will bring you the gold in the sun
And the silver in the moon
Cause you flawless like a rose in full bloom

Inspired by a *****

poets and poetry

What if poetry is just an escape from loneliness?

What if most poets if not all are loners

Who find comfort in speaking with themselves?

These poems are feelings unheard

Sadness outweighing happiness
