There's much to say
about your face,
the symmetry of it
makes me lose focus often,
your perfect blue eyes
like a cerulean sky
so mysterious in its shape
like a soot filled fireplace.
Your small mouth
are where best kisses are housed.
Your eyebrows arent too dark;
they are a canvas for live art
settled with or without a brow pencil.
You are the prettiest person I've ever met
with roses for cheeks stained crimson red.

There's much to say
about your face.

I do not love you as to hold you in my palms every second,
not as the blessing of wishful thinking, not as sunny days,
I love you as to let you float freely to your will, I love you in rainy nights,
I love you as overtly and covertly as possible. I do not love you as rubies and emeralds but as heartbeats and stolen kisses. I love you as a fleeting moment I may come to regret. I love you with or without cupid's arrow.
I love you.

She told me "say what you must, but do it in two words"
I knew two isn't enough to say what I need to,
I needed a third but I could see the anger in her face,
and I decided to try for the two words in the first place.

Don't leave.

& if I had more choices I would beg her with words
saying "baby please don't leave me, I'm begging, trying to make it as your boyfriend"
" I know it's dangerous, the path that I'm taking,
but baby please don't leave".
"And if I could change it, I'll learn to be more careful, because I always need you, so baby please don't leave".

But in two words, all I could ever really say or feel is a barrier between heart and mind,

Don't leave...          please?

Each grain of sand slipping in this hourglass of life-
seems to remind me that you aren't right by my side-
the fleeting wide-eyed surprises we shared together
doesn't make up for a better night rest and I'm up again
with a paper and pen, penning my pensive thoughts
that are caught in the back of my skull into words.
The hurt is still there but I'll forget them all if I could
just hold you in my arm.

Remind you that I am the calm after a storm and your-
eyes are the most beautiful gems I have ever seen.
The emerald green really brings out the depth of your heart,
but the art you bleed to life seems to spill off the canvas
and the answers I'm looking for can only be found in your eyes.

Tonight; I'm reminded of how much you made me smile,
tonight; I'm reminded of how much I have loved you.
Every moments pass by, days go by and I know,
I know, I know, I missed the chance to ever see you again.
This pen bleeds my anguish but the tear stained tissues
captures my misused miss yous.

You have cities in your eyes, I wish I could see them again,
the sunrises, sunsets, the butterflies, the birds and the horizon;
beyond the photos,
beyond the memories.
