This is my message in a bottle
And it’s not a cry for help

It’s a parting letter
      - Poetry

I can’t wait
Until i meet someone
Whom i’ll never
Write a terribly sad
Poem about

    - But i’ll wait

i know we stay
up too late
and we sacrifice
our much needed sleep,
but with the time
i miss in my dreams,
i feel like
i fulfill them
with you

you write beautiful words

you always amaze

the way your mind
forms each intricate phrase
to put on paper
for my eyes to gaze

some of your poems
are well thought out
others are thrown together
simply, without any doubt

you write beautiful words
they expose you
every little detail
exposes the reader too

you write differently
than I ever could
you speak honestly in I way
that I never would

your words are as beautiful as your mind

I ran away from love
     But  i didn’t mean to
You opens up your arms
     But all i saw
Was the last person
     That tore me to
P     I     E     C     E     S

If…

If my love - was a butterfly
     That fluttered about
Would you capture it?
Carefully

If my kiss - was like a flower
     Of soft petals around your mouth
Would you take the time
To see them with your eyes open?

If my hugs were a rainy day
     That came down steadily from the sky
Would you run outside -
And smile up into my drops of affection?

If i took you down
     To the deepest feeling
Or stole you away
     To see the galaxies
If i showed you more
     Than you could imagine
Or turned you upside down
     Or inside out

If my love was everything or anything else…
     Would you hold my hand?
