I'm sick of all lies
I've heard it all my life!
Just tell me who you like
Tell me the truth for what it is
I hate hidden things
I wish it'd be clear
If I was never "him"
Just some thoughts, I know my worth,but not knowing things from the people you love... hurts.

Doubt
It's
Deep

Faith
Takes
A
Leap

Better is the excitement before failure or completion
Than
Living in the depth of deceit
You won't get far with doubt. Risk your life for things and embrace the unexpected, it's possible to learn from the experience. Just don't do anything stupid lol.

Peace so soothing
Whispering in my ear
Kissing my cheeks
Saying things so lovely

I begin to feel less lonely
The lonely artist feels the same thing
Expressing notes
Beautifully
Music is a beautiful thing, because I feel less lonely. This is so, because I'm sure the artist behind the song expressed the same experience.

Are beautiful...
Over the time you get to know them.
Are trouble...
Once you thought you knew them.
Are fun...
At the right moments.
Are understanding...
When you share your experiences.
Are confusing....
Because they can change in an instance.
All this to say that love can still remain.
Love can still remain.

I have found beauty in your eyes
Your perspective changes mine
I have seen different things through
The lens of your eyes

The secrets of your heart
Reveal to me who you really are
I have found beauty in your heart

I have found beauty on your lips
Because you say the right things
And close it shut before making a mistake

I have found beauty in you
Because no one else is you.

Maybe one day
I'll see your face
For the rest of my days
See it wither
Every wrinkle, every line on your face
Representing the decades of love we had and continue to make
Until death takes us away
May our love remain
This is a poem in hopes of one day meeting someone that would enjoy me as much as I'd love to enjoy them. Just loving each other until death take us away.

Beautiful is the bloom of the saccharine rose
Though it seems alone
It's learning how to grow
Its vibrant red shows the love
It wishes for others to know
Because it doesn't want to be known as the lonely rose
In the bush
Beautiful is the bloom of the saccharine rose
