I'm sitting on a beach away from home
Waves rolling gentle as the breeze
The green tide of Evergreens flow below
A glowing orange sky as the sun falls asleep

My body sits motionless
While my soul dances in the mirror
The feeling of something so bliss
I've never seen life any clearer

Staring at the waves wishing, washing
Telling me secrets from down deep
Clear, crisp spring water dancing
In total blackness is a treat

Stars floating around in the liquid universe
Begging me to jump in and explore
Like when you stare into the night sky
And feel your body lifting off the floor

As time goes by
I can only think of my mistakes
I wish I could try
To take them all away
I can't take this feeling
It burns from inside
I know in good time this all will fly by
But today hurts still
And I know I'm in Hell
But I'll still find my angel
I won't show fear to love someone again
And this pain,
Love heals

A bridge begins
When two people meet
Gaps in their lives
Together they'll defeat

Planks make support
Ropes tied in love
Sometimes people don't realize
How high they are in love

They'll stop feeling danger
But the knots they tie are loose
Planks falling around them
Blind to this abuse

The bridge they built is breaking
An end is coming near
One gets off safely
The other falls into despair

How do you describe brown eyes?
Dirt, mud, earth, none of these suffice
Too much to beauty for most to realize
Too much depth for some to think why

Seeing them first thing in the morning,
Warmer than a cup of cocoa on a cold winter day.
Deeper than any earth on which we stand
They welcome you. They make you want to stay

Sweeter than chocolate, they'll relieve all the pain
One good look into them and those thoughts run astray
Like with a sweet tooth they are something you crave
Please make sure they don't melt away

Lost in my mind
You have been
Everything for me
Even though you are
Never coming back
You know that I am
Stronger than ever
Read it and then read it from the bottom. This was my first time trying this style of a poem

Dull grey days turn to bright
Moons go by and suns will rise
I know I'm gonna be alright but
The devil hides in a lovely disguise

My mind rushes through this emptiness
A racing heart speeds with every step
Hoping that I can come to my senses
Before two hands applaud cement

Life comes quick but will end even quicker
When you shout and you scream
But they say "that's stuff you whisper"
I just need to wake up from this bad dream

— The End —
