You are wonderful
You are intelligent
And creative
You are filled with infinite possibilities
And I believe in you
You are strong and bold
It's okay to hurt
To be sad
To feel lower than low
It's not over
Infinity is in your favor
Just breathe
Because you are a beautiful
Soul
Built to overcome
Because although imperfect
You are simply perfect

You had me.

Completely.

From the very start. And you knew it.

It’s strange; how different you are to me now.

But, how foolish of me to believe a conman’s pitch?

But, how could I not?
It was the best kind of lie; one I wanted to believe.

My heart stopped beating each time I looked at you.
How could I overlook my own cardiac arrests?
Your tongue was so smooth, I didn’t notice it was forked.
Your words sounded so good, I didn’t realise they could be false.
I fell so hard, that I didn’t even think that I could hit the ground.

But, of course, I hit the cold concrete.
In fact, I crash every time I remember your face.

Because sometimes the cruelest of liars are the easiest to believe.

Love notes

You left love notes
Written along my ribcage
You said the spaces
Made perfect lines for poetry
My skin still remembers
Even after I washed you off

Alone

Pineapples
I am more alone with you then I am myself
Under azure sky i lay
Listening to salsa drumbeat
Of the flowing stream
How beautiful it sounds

Elated moment fills me
That I faced the sun
And dance in the sun
Sprint of footsteps

We dance and touch the sun
Our body stiff with the cold sun
Floating in array of Moon hotness
Hotbeds of kisses we party till morn

Energy penetrated our failing strength
Our legs created wings we fly out of universe
Into the azure sky we dance in our created sun
Bringing rains of love as we become imprison by Sun

When I first laid my eyes upon you
I did not know what I had to do
I knew there was something in me
That will break me completely
Don't make me fall in love with you
Don't make my heart feel like it's adieu
Tell me, if it's meant to be
I am willing to set you free

If these people only knew
What I'm really going through
It would make them jump into the sea
And ask what is wrong with me
But it is you
That's making me so blue

I'm sorry for myself
because I'm not allowed to love you

DAD... DAd... Dad... .... ... dad.
It's cold out here.
Please just let me in,
Even if it's for a second.
Dad, please... why is the door locked?
Why won't you let me in?
I know you're there, with her.
I don't want to be out here.... Please.

DAd... Dad... .... ...dad
It's dark out here
Please don't go to far,
Stay near me!
This started off as fun but not anymore
Please don't leave us out here,
The words are no place for children...
Now she's crying, please don't leave!?!

Dad... .... ...dad
You no longer come and get us,
I didn't want to go back anyway.
But no explanation, no reason why.
You hit us, swore, let him hurt us badly,
Why? That's all I ask.
I see you've got a new family now,
You treat that little girl so well...
What make sure her so special?

... .... ...dad
I'm eleven years old and you stood there like a coward,
I spoke my mind, the truth.
Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I shouldn't have a voice!
You and your dad told me I was worthless, a failure, a *****
BETTER OFF NOT HERE!
You crushed me that day, tore away my confidence...
A man who was supposed to love, never loved me at all...

Busy!
A frivolous concept meaning I don't have time for you.
But what happens when that time runs out?
You wake up alone
Wondering where all that time went.
Regret!
That is what "busy" means!
