Beauty is Pain
Flor May 2021
"Beauty is pain" I said
"Then you must be in pain all the time" you mumbled

If Love was a Game
Flor Dec 2018
If love was a game it’ll be quidditch
           You’ll be the seeker and I’ll be the snitch.
Just some Harry Potter stuff

Can I Kiss You?
Flor Apr 2021
"Can I kiss you?"
I blinked, surprised by your question
"Yes. Yes of course"
And as you put your lips on mine,
It feels like the first time all over again

His name is Depression
Flor Dec 2018
He comes and goes
A man no one really knows
He’s there when you’re alone
Still as a stone

Sadness he detects
And closer he gets
He’ll devour you slowly
And takes your mind wholly 

You deter him from time to time
Yet he’s always there, just waiting to climb
He whispers things,
Bad things that’ll break your wings 

Sometimes he’ll whisper the sweetest things
Oh, what a joy that brings
He offers you freedom
And acts like a beacon

You’re afraid to take it
Fear to fall in that pit
Be strong you must
Don’t listen and trust

For he’ll absorb positive emotion
Slowly pushing you to the ocean
Be careful around him
Don’t let yourself take the swim.

Awake
Flor Dec 2018
She woke up from her deep sleep
Finally back from a long trip
She looked around but found none
In panic she ran

But it seems that the road was endless
And she was alone and friendless
So she stopped and stood still
Thinking if this was real

That’s when she realized
She’s no longer paralyzed
There she goes, already up on her feet
All this is true, without deceit

She tries to remember,
What happened last December
Alas, she could not
Her thoughts jumbled in a knot

What was even the day?
Her mind hazy and grey
She remembers Christmas
And after that, the sickness

She tries to recall
Until she can finally remember all
The moment she took her last breath
And was taken by death.

Sunshine
Flor Apr 10
Kissing you tastes like sunshine, pure and sweet,
A warmth that spreads from my head to feet.
Your lips, like rays of light, touch mine,
Igniting a fire, a sensation divine.

With each tender touch, I'm transported away,
To a world where only you and I may stay
With every whisper, every sigh,
Your love, a sunlit sky.

Your lips, a touch of summer's grace,
In your embrace, I find my place.
So let me bask in your embrace,
And feel the warmth upon my face,
Oh to be loved and to love
Flor Apr 11
In the canvas of the sky, stories unfold,
As clouds drift by, their tales untold.
With a wild imagination, I watch them dance,
Creating adventures in a single glance.

A dragon's roar, a castle high,
In the fluffy clouds that paint the sky.
A ship sets sail on a sea of blue,
As the clouds whisper secrets known to few.

I see faces, animals, shapes so grand,
In the ever-changing sky, where dreams expand.
With each passing moment, a new story is born,
In the vast expanse of the heavens, adorned.

In the silence of the day, I listen close,
To the tales, the clouds and wind impose.
With a wild imagination, I let them guide,
As they paint pictures, far and wide.

So let the clouds weave their tales so free,
In the endless sky for all to see.
With my wild imagination, I'll soar and roam,
In the stories, the clouds call home.

The Shape of My Name
Flor Dec 2018
You went into labor, not knowing my name.
It was a shock to you when I came.
You thought I’d be a stillbirth,
Thought I’d slip out of you strangled and blue in this Earth.

Dad has to tell you over and over that you weren’t dreaming.
Your eyes, as always, will start gleaming.
You didn’t name me for nearly a week.
You didn’t hold me or even speak.

When I was four,
You said my name in a way I never heard before
Each syllable was hard as a steel ball,
As if reminding me that it’s the only name everyone should call

I disliked my name, hated it even
So sometimes I’ll tell people that I’m George or Steven.
They weren’t mine, but they were better.
Hearing this, your lips will always pursed and turn bitter.

You take it as a personal insult somehow.
I know by the way you wrinkle both of your eyebrow.
Is it bad that your daughter is a son?
You have to accept that nothing could be done.
So this one is inspired by a short story with the same title. Some words came from there. It is written by Nino Cipri. It’s a wonderful story about a trans-man you guys might want to read it.

Safe Heaven’s Den
Flor Dec 2018
I dreamed of you
And it was too good to be true.
You were smiling
And it was beguiling.

Like always, you wouldn’t talk.
You’ll just stare and walk.
But that’s okay,
Thanks for the visit anyway.

For now, watch us from above.
This is me sending some love.
Till we meet again,
In the safe heaven’s den.

Mr. Cloud tells me Stories
Flor Jan 2019
On a sunny day, he unveils
The wonderful stories and tales
With a wild imagination,
You can see his beautiful creation.

A dog-shaped cloud sometimes
Or even monkeys that climb
With your stories, I feel peaceful
My time is definitely spent on something blissful.

Inspiration
Flor Apr 10
In your eyes, I find a world so vast,
In your touch, inspiration is amassed.
With you, my love, by my side,
Poetry flows like an endless tide.

So thank you, my dear, for being you,
For inspiring the words that ring true.
In your presence, my creativity thrives,
You're the spark that keeps my passion alive.
Found someone worthwhile writing poems for. Words just keeps flowing when I think of you my dearest.

If only heaven has visiting hours
Then perhaps this pain would hurt less
I miss you more than words can express

Loving You
Flor Apr 10
In the tapestry of life, where choices are spun,
Loving you, my dearest, was the brightest one.

With every heartbeat, with every breath,
Loving you brings joy beyond depth.

Through every trial, through every test,
Loving you, I feel truly blessed

So here I stand, with gratitude anew,
Loving you was the best thing I ever knew.

You’ve always been my number one,
My strongest supporter, my shining sun.
Through every challenge, you stood near,
In your presence, I had no fear.

From little things to milestones grand,
You held my heart, you held my hand.
Together we’ve faced joy and strife,
In you, I’ve found my love, my life.
You've always been my number 1 supporter since day one. I remember how you volunteered to be my OR buddy when no one else was willing. You stood behind me, guided me that day, and introduced me to your mom right after haha. You're the sweetest, dorkiest, thoughtful man I've ever met, and I love you for it.

You're making me feel things that I'm not supposed to have

I Long To Fly
Flor Jan 2019
I long to fly
I long to see beyond the sky
Up pass the white clouds
Far away from the crowds

I long to reach the stars and the moon
To be wrap above in my own cocoon
I long to flee
I long to be free.

Lady Death
Flor Mar 2019
Scared I was
Whenever you’ll pass.
How I shiver from your touch
Afraid to be on your clutch.

Bony fingers,
Please don’t linger.
Alone, you are
Make sure to stay afar.

You don’t give you take.
Leaving us with an ache.
You listen to their last breath.
Before taking them to death.

I loathed you,
I know you knew.
Yet I learned,
The beauty of being burned.

You leave scars not on the skin but in hearts
No one did understand your eccentric arts.
But I did in someways,
Understood your plays.

Took away the pain you did
And in return, souls were rid.
Empty shells were left at the bed,
Making us grieve and mourn the dead.

At the perfect time sometime?
Or just in these lonely nights?

The Night Hides Me
Flor May 2020
Always have preferred darkness,
For it perfectly conceal the sadness.
Never did like the light,
It never hides the pain like the night

Better Person
Flor Apr 12
In your eyes, I see the best of me,
A reflection of who I long to be.
With every word, you light my way,
Guiding me through each passing day.

Your love, a beacon in the dark,
A guiding light, a hopeful spark.
With you by my side, I'm unafraid,
To chase my dreams, to make the grade.

In your embrace, I find my strength,
To go the distance, no matter the length.
For in your love, I am renewed,
A better person, because of you.

Wonderwall
Flor Apr 10
In the quiet of night, when stars softly gleam,
Thoughts of you dance like a wistful dream.
Your essence dances in my mind,
A symphony of intertwined.

In moments fleeting, and in hours long,
You're the lyrics to my song.
In laughter's echo, in tears' release,
You're the constant, the heart's peace.

For in the tapestry of time, you're woven deep,
In every memory, in every leap.
In every sunrise, in every fall,
You're the one I think of most of all.
Wonderwall: someone you find yourself thinking about all the time, the person you are completely infatuated with.

Staring up at the ceiling
Bottling up this strange feeling
Twisting and turning in my bed
Thoughts of you running through my head
Wondering if I should confess
To lessen this immense distress
But alas, I decided it was better to hide,
How much I want you by my side
Oh, dear, I've got it bad for you. If only you knew...

I thought I knew love, but with you it's clear,
It's deeper, richer, without any fear.
You've shown me a love that knows no bounds,
A love that lifts me up, where joy abounds.

More than Night and Day
Flor May 11
You are the melody to my song, the light in my night,
The one who fills my world with endless delight.
I love you more than words can say,
More than stars in the sky, more than night and day.

Leave behind the shadows cast,
By love that never truly lasts.
Break free from chains that hold you tight,
And step into the healing light.

But know this truth, and hold it near,
You deserve more than pain and fear.
A love that lifts, a heart that's kind,
Not chains that bind and eyes that blind

Your heart deserves a tender touch,
A love that doesn't ask too much.
No more the tears, the silent cries,
It's time to bid those lies goodbye.

Embrace the strength within your soul,
To seek a love that makes you whole.
For in the leaving, you will find,
A peace that soothes your weary mind.

So walk away, don’t turn around,
In freedom's flight, let joy be found.
For when you leave that toxic place,
You’ll find a love that knows your grace.
For the people who finds it difficult to let go and leave, there's someone better and more deserving of you out there I promise.

And when a song starts playing my thoughts drift to you
As if every word sung and every chord strung was made for you and only you
My thoughts are filled with you...

Touch

A gentle touch, a tender brush,
Leaves my cheeks a rosy flush.
Simple gestures, so sweet and kind,
In your presence, I unwind.

Your fingertips upon my skin,
Ignite a warmth from deep within.
With every touch, my heart does soar,
In your embrace, I want for more.
Your simple touch makes me blush

To see you smile, to ease your pain,
Brings me joy like summer rain.

For in your joy, I find my own,
In caring for you, my love is shown.

Our friends nudge and wink with knowing eyes,
Their hints like birds in sunny skies.
"You and him," they sing in jest,
"There's more than friendship, we attest."

They **** and pry,
With grins and twinkles in their eyes,
"We see the spark, we see the flame,
Deny it all, it's just the same."

We’d laugh it off, just friends, we’d say,
Yet in their words, a truth would stay.
A love that grew in its own way,
Now here we are, we’ve found our way
Funny how other people saw it before us. I guess our friends were right all along and I couldn't be happier about it.
