In a costume of conflicting emotion,
of crossing diamondic colour,
with regal posture in grief,
the Harlequin and the King,
a display of opposites
creating a composite being,
that eases her body
gently into the waiting water,
to float away serene,
on her journey to the nether.

Midnight blue and emerald green,
the regalia of ermine,
both ostentatious and humble,
robeing the aspects,
understated in crowning splendour,
the gentleman King bows,
and the Harlequin laughs,
the bi-polar reaction
to the tragedy of misfortune,
with a sting in the myth-tale.

With the dark hues of mourning,
a legend passes on her way,
across the streams of time,
on a voyage to discover herself,
carrying her Harlequin in a purse,
holding her King to her breast,
owning them both in her heart,
the medicine wheel spins,
knowing the grapes of wrath
yield the wine of spite.

The motley speckles of attire,
a starry parody of night skies,
lighting the decorated funeral barge,
gliding along the rivers of space,
worn with the mantle of sorrow,
and it sails into the sunset,
as the Harlequin and King observe,
the mandala turns,
the bier of the Queen departing,
bears their sadness forth.

The Harlequin laughs and laughs 'til he cries,
his heart grows cold, then withers and dies,
whilst the King, statuesque, memoirs his life,
lamenting the legend of a Queen, his wife.

" It is what it is, but it will be what you make it. Though your heart is no thief, its your mind that will take it.. "
A.L
Last night a dream of mine I wont forget
A dream of love without regret
A spiral life till now I've  lead
Until my heart thought you were dead
That pretty face forever gone
I know one day I'll die alone
Without your smile
Without your touch
That thought alone just hurts too much.
One of my earliest pieces, that i found going through my old phone. It is dedicated to my muse and one of the only people i will truly love.
It seems that our feeling's have hit a wall
a wall of brick thousands tall
I cannot say i love no more but burning out's a painful call
I sensed this break up from the start a cold black dagger to my heart
Trust my words oh love of mine,
I meant not to hurt you all this time,
All i saw was black and white,
Your colours must have shone too bright
My heart wont last a hundred years but I'll always regret leaving you in tears.
I hate breaking up but when its time people can usually tell that there is no more love between them and these upsetting moments are as important in life as the Happy ones cause they shape us and give us a chance to move on.
We met for the first time one summer evening, school was over and I went up to your house, not knowing or expecting to see you, but there you were, a lively sprout just being yourself, enjoying life like never before. ( Those days were simpler, happier) Although we weren't friend's, we became just that, playing childhood games and being lively and carefree like never before.

Time is the worst enemy of all of us but the greatest ally of change, and change is what we have done like no others, now we are no longer carefree and and happy, change is a tricky miracle as for some it does all the good in the world and for others like us, just hurts and torments.

We spent a lot of time not knowing or seeing each other, we are different people, void of any connection with our past, and I don't delude myself, I know that our friendship was once close but no longer.

Not long ago we started seeing each other again, external forces pushing us together whilst pulling us apart, life is no longer simple or enjoyable for either of us, you glued to a loving tyrant whilst I distroyed and drowning in my own life scape.

What I feel and despite all and everything telling me not to, I truly love you, in every way that a person can love, and instead of describing why and what I love you about you, for which I would undoubtedly run out of space in the universe, I'm going to say this, I love you for who you are and who you'll become, I am pulled towards you like a fallen angel is pulled towards sin.

I would tell you, I would love to sit you down during a star filled night and give you every reason for why to me you're the meaning of life, but if  I did I would only hurt you, my feelings for you are not wrong as no feelings are, but I worry about your life, your change constitutes both my ascention and my downfall. You're my everything and I want you to know that you can always rely on me, as I won't ever stop loving you.

With Love 
My dearest
A love letter to this one girl who makes me a better person with everyday that I spend with her.
My loved one, my sun and sky, my moon and stars, I love you, and only you, my love is endless and my feelings for you are infinite, the first glimpse of you enslved me, your Amber eyes like Fetters on my ankles, now I'm at your every request ,
my heart is locked away in the prison which is your beauty,
My Queen, my brightest candle, my most sincere friend, please don't punish me with loneliness
You are my meaning  of my life,
You are my True Love
To my one and only love
Chloe
Allways  and  truly  yours
There are millions of reasons to love you, no reasons to hate you, thousands of to adore you and none to despise you,
you stole my Heart, you the girl of my dreams,
the image of your face is the very spark which drives
my heart to ignite, my head to lose all sense of rational
thought and brings me to my knees each and every time,
please forgive me, I have tried; on many occasions
but it just seemed wrong, the fear of truth
defeated me; then, shattering my confidence as
if it were a ceramic vase
but now believe in myself again, I promise to love you for as long as I exist, no more shall I fear words, no more shall I fear to admit.
Chloe
As once said by Alfred Lord Tennyson in his poem Memoriam:27
"Its better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all."
