We hide away not in shame,
But in fear of what might happen,
What might happen if they see,
What might happen if they know what we feel,
What might be if we were free instead of us living like we are trapped in the 1915s.

Instead of me closing windows and locking doors,
Instead of me being afraid to say I am yours,
Please I beg of you to never let go,
In your eyes, I might lose control,
Because it is the lens to your soul,
Hold me close in the shadows,
I will offer those three words as if I wouldn't be disowned if they heard.

Love me like you miss me
Kiss me with hopes of rewriting history
While we hideaway like the 1915s.

She said.

Don't love me with your pride nor with limitations,
Don't use your past pain as an excuse when you hurt me,
Don't push your thumb in wounds then question why my scars haven't healed.

Don't think I'll beg you to stay if you want to leave,
Because I'm tired of loving someone until I forget to love me.

Don't fill me with lies then question why I don't believe your truths,
Don't step in my heart with ***** shoes,
Reassure me with words but love me with actions,
Love me in public and even more in private.

I pray my definition of genuine love aligns with yours,
And I'm engraved deep in your mind, Love me every day like today we'll meet our demise.

I watch you from afar
Just wishing on a star
That you will greet my arms
They tell me it's wrong
That roses together isn't normal
That my love for you is immoral

"Love daisies" they plead
But I would rather watch you flow in the breeze
I would prefer to love daisies
But my soul won't let me
You look heavenly when you dance

I pray they will give me a chance
Or at least try to understand
That I can't help but love your fragrance
They will never see
Your pure beauty
Because they're blinded by ignorance and stupidity

Is it really that bad?
Isn't love something that should be treasured?
What I feel for roses is more than just pleasure
It's emotions that cannot be measured
They scream "it's just a phase
That I will grow out of one day"
They throw words of hate
And then laugh at my pain

Nobody is the same
And how I feel can not be changed
They say they don't acknowledge nor do you accept
But I must live for myself

Learn to invest in yourself,
Water your mind and soul with nothing but love, admiration, pure thoughts and faith.

Because we're only the product of what we feed ourselves on a daily, Remember it is okay to be alone even on the days where human nature reminds you to be passionate.

Be your own healer,
Don't expect people to rescue you because demons are resting on everybody's inner peace,
Some hide in the past,
Some disguise themselves in the future,
And some are standing in plain sight in the present time.

Happiness comes from within,
If you truly learn to love yourself you can give your demons wings and make them Angels again.
