River
Cotton candy and
Pink carnations and
A pink wool baby blanket and
Our cheeks when
Our eyes meet
It's all pink, it's all
So sweet

I'm gonna talk to him
I tell myself everyday
And I never even give you a chance
'Cause when you're close, I run away
It's because I truly fear
That once we talk
All my pent up feelings and fantasies
Will be crystal clear
To you
And what if they scare you
And you run away
Thinking me odd
For my crush,
For me liking you so much?

Well,
It'll be different this time
Yea, I can talk to you,
Without letting you know
How really cool and awesome and
Different I think you are
I'll just say "hello"
And smile
And we'll talk
And become good friends
I'll soon forget all the times
I imagined marrying you
Because I'll be getting to know you,
And who knows,
Maybe you'll turn out to be so much better
Than the man I dreamt you up to be.
Lol
We often wonder and question,
the meaning of life.
Focusing our attention,
on a three letter word.

The flaw in our nature;
endlessly analyzing.
With a need to understand,
and be reassured.

A vast ocean of opinions,
each an interpretation.
Never truly certain,
of what remains unknown.

Blinded with ungratefulness,
our gifts' wasted; unnoticed.
Failing to recognize,
the kindness shown.

The sun on this warm day,
shed's light to a new dawn.
Embracing this found focus,
not on why, but W.H.Y.

Wisdom, Humor, Youth.
To live each day wisely,
as eagerly as a child,
laughing until you cry.

My  love,
حبيبي
Mon chéri,
Mi amor,
Nothing can soothe
The pain,
الالم
La douleur,
El dolor,
And nothing can give me
Hope
الامل
L'éspoir
La esperanza*
Again.
I see beauty in you,
Through your kindness.

Where the rest of the world may only see a man
I see a savior.
I see passion and strength.

I see you and I feel love.
I feel that the human race may have a real chance at survival and our world may be saved.

Your voice echoes through my mind and ripples through my veins.
I listen to you because I believe in you.
I believe in what you stand for.

I wish to be nowhere else but here, with you.
My thoughts of him.
Like a flower
a thorn too
is a  wish
that has a
point to make,
it stubbornly
sticks out
awaiting it's
chance to *****.
A flower and a thorn
are having the  same genealogy;
the same idea speaking
two different tongues,
act according to whims,
drastically different,
but would you ever
recognize it, at first sight?
