This day of love,
My heart slowly wants to crack
Slowly and foolishly weak
It starts to crumble into pieces,
Like stars that we once wished to in the sky

A wished selfishly forgotten by the gods
Loved washed away by tears of our broken hearts
But the Gods should remain still,
For this Valentines Day
My heart will never break apart

She was drawn to all useless pieces,
All the hideous parts of everything, she loved
It was mysterious, yet it made sense

That's why she loved me,
Because I'm also made of broken parts

In a world full of exceptional titans
They walk the lands and the world shakes
Talents forged in the highest forms of heaven

They scoop the gold glittering sun with their palms
Stars bow their heads as they twinkle with affection
The seas shake in fear and the world spins for them

I was overwhelmed,
Because who am I compared to this shining titans,
I was just a peasant farmer
Poor and helpless with nothing to boast of

Wandering across the vast space
Lost in this dark place
You're mesmerizing, has anyone told you?
I'm so attracted, I'm being pulled towards you

I was spinning, I was spiraling
I'm so attracted yet I can't get near you
Why are we so apart?
Your beauty is worth admiring

Our love is a forbidden place,
Our love is sacred
Will you listen to my heartbeat?
Or can I just stay in your orbit?

I was looking for my constellation,
And then I found you
One day, I hope our worlds will collide
When that day comes, we'll finally fly

This, to you, may sound silly
But I fell in love with a purple lily
I watched her grow up
From just a seed
I planted her, near a big oak tree

As I sat, and observed her bloom
Happiness, replaced my gloom
Sometime that day, mid afternoon
I wondered back, to my cocoon.

I actually don’t want to read the news
I’d rather stare into the deepest blue

I don’t want to know about all the world’s problems
I’d rather just find some where to rest and snooze

My head gets too full and wild with worries
I’d rather discard them or perhaps just a few

I'd like to sit on a beach by the sea  
And do nothing but take in the view

Id rather not worry about people
And all the bad things they do

I’d prefer to look at the plants and the trees
The birds and the bees and thank them too

Today I could just let my guard down
And go with my flow I suppose

Perhaps by stopping to worry so much
Things might get better – who knows?

Ah, yeah, there it is...
It's been years; too long.
The memory has faded,
But the desire remains.

It's that feeling I've missed;
Such sweet, silent songs,
Such emotions debated,
No more clouds in my brain.

Just a painless, empty bliss.
I can smile, and fantasize,
And feel the warm sun's kiss
As I breathe and close my eyes.

Such a blanket never sewn,
Can bring me this warmth.
Confidence I've never known,
And some feeling of worth.

Finally,  I belong!
I'm here! Can you see me?
Nothing's wrong; not now,
I can just stand here, and BE.

Tonight, when they watch me,
Their eyes open in wonder,
I shall stand and deliver,
And quiver no more.

I am here.  I exist.
And I am not afraid.
