In my dreams
Words play a symphony
and form a beautiful melody

I open my eyes with a smile
to the lyric of a beautiful poetry
You and me together in love we'll be forever in perfect harmony.

Beauty is meant to be shared,
compared
open starry eyes,
bleed love,
feel things.
wonders of the universe.
joys of coffee,
all the things I love.
The language of God,
When you pray with belief and good faith,
HE answers without words.
HE fulfills your prayers if they are meant for you,
Otherwise HIS silence is for your good,
Or the time to grant your wish is not right,
HE always does things for a reason.

You combed my hair
Tied it in a perfect ponytail
Prepared my lunchbox
Like a perfect mother
You’d say
You were so proud of me
And you’re happy
To see me
Everytime you’re  sober
But when you’re high
I could see anguish
I grew up with it
No matter how sober you are
On some days
I still can’t  forgive you
For telling me
You regret having me
It still pains me
Mother
May countless

I painted my room the hue of blue
For a reason
You see, blue reminds me of the beach
Which reminds me of hot summer days
And cold summer nights
Which reminds me of when you lent me your sweatshirt
Which wasn’t blue, but when I wore it I swear it radiated that hue
It’s scary having deep feelings for someone
But the radiance of blue was so vibrant
It was easy to push my fears aside
Instead I was filled with calmness, peace, security, and feelings of content  
I was left the happiest I’ve ever been in my life.
I painted my room the hue of blue
To remind me what I want to strive to feel
Each day of my life
I’m open to any thoughts, suggestions, or critiques :)
Have you climbed to the top
of your little mountain,
only to find others
looking down

From heights far above you
that unable to climb,
you turn a blind eye
to the ground

“Falling in love” is a contradiction in itself, because in love there is only the rising, the ascending, not the falling.
You can not fall in love, but rather, rise.
