Isn't it good to have somebody
That would drive you to a store
In the middle of the night
For soft-serve ice creams

Isn't it good to have somebody
That would show off
How he loves you
In the most sweetest way unimaginable

Isn't it good to have somebody
That would give you gifts
From stuffed toys to chocolates
To shiny precious gems

What an ideal guy
Difficult to find; difficult to leave
Staying just for perfection
Not true love

You can never bare the thought
Of someone else feeling perfection
A selfish act, but not of love
Here just for the show; for the cheers of the crowd

If this for you is love
Then you are foolish and unwise
For love is about the moments
Not the show off surprises

Love is about worthwhile pain
Not the temporary joy
If you stay just for others
Then you my friend, are shallow

They're might be good, but wouldn't it be great

To have somebody
That would know when to stay silent
In desperate times
And hold you when you cry

To have somebody
You could go to at 3am
In oversized hoodies and PJs
Wet from the rain

To have somebody
To talk to about life
In parks and in swings
That shares the same understanding

Love is not for everybody
But for two people only
It's never about society
It's about you and me
most relationships these days, just saddens me.

All around me was a dark universe I cannot outrun
Endless rain of comets, parts of me strewn
Until you went and became my King Sun
And I, becoming your majestic Queen Moon

You filled my universe with eternal light
Passing through the dark recesses of my core
You made my faded spark ignite
Making me beam with delight forevermore

But the craters, they will never fade away
For they sometimes still remind me of darkness
Having me gone astray
Dispirited once again that I may never fluoresce

Yet, the King Sun illuminates ever so vigorously
And as long as he is there, I know we will reign endlessly

They say your house
is your home
but can it still be
when it's the place that tears thee
heart fragile as a *******
cries of laughter
burning your soul
left a big hole
now I feel empty
echoes of a memory
now I am running
the distance is stretching
searching for a home
where there will be shalom
when can I finally say
"I'm home"
or, did I went astray?
now I wish haven't gone
making me lonesome to the bones
He asked me then
as we stared at the strawberries
lit in the fluorescent grocery store lighting
adjacent in their plastic coffins
red and ripe
clearly evesdropping

“do you love me?”

I hadn’t ever thought about it before
but I guess I did.

“but are you in love with me?”

their green stems were a reminder of home
their severed ends a scar of the violence they endured
yellow seeds clinged to their polished red bodies
the small taste of bitter to remind you,
nothing can be that sweet all the time

I cocked my head to one side
They had me captivated
I wanted their taste
Their raw delicious flesh

$5.99?

****. Too much.



“No.


                                              I’m not in love with you.”




Oh, thank God.

The blueberries are on sale.

I left you a note
Hidden away
No chance of finding
There to decay

It was my adieu
A tragic ending
To my darling, my love
I bid you farewell

They'll all suppose
It was an unexpected flee
But I hope you see
And understand

T'was never unexpected
Only concealed
At the back of our minds
Calling but left **unanswered
because goodbyes might seem unexpected but it never is. we can feel it in our hearts, we just don't entertain it.
