I love you silent
and always will do,
You no need to
love me back.
You are my boss, just
lemme be your clerk.

You are the morning
and I wanna be a bird,
You are a love sentence
I'm just a single word.
You're the moon bright
and I am the dark!

You are the pleasure
I am just like a tear
You really could feel
it wouldn't be fair!
Your daylight is my mine
and your dusk is my dusk!

I want you to be happy
I wanna see you smile,
Just smile always!
I'm not hurt; I'm alright,
I won't follow you again
during walking in the park!

I am walking on the moon
After talking to you tonight,
Please don't leave me soon
Stay close till the daylight.

I wanna swim in your lagoon
Through my thirsty eyesight,
I would sing like a lovely loon
To you, if you feel me alright.

Your love is a heavenly boon
In my life, like the stars' light,
It made me cool from a goon.
I only love you; no more fight!

Will you make my afternoon
Tomorrow and give me the right,
To find out your secret crown?
Ah, keep silent until the twilight!

The poet lives two lives.
One on the outside,
And one in their mind.

When you look in their eyes
You could see an abyss.

If you looked long enough
You could sink into it.

But most people don’t see it.

Take the time to read the words, though,
And you would know for sure.

The poet lives in two different worlds.
A little escape from the madness.
Or maybe, into.

Sun
She looked at him like he was the sun,
In that she never looked at him,
Except out of frustration.

She complained when he was gone,
But she never looked.

On days he was stronger, she hid from him
On days he was muted, she complained.

She never looked at him until he was leaving,
And in the beauty of the sunset she wondered how,
She'd never seen him before
Found this on Tumblr a while ago, felt I’d share it
It makes you happy.
It makes you sad.
Make you wake up in the morning feeling so glad.
Yes, are the things that love makes you do.
Oh, so true.

It makes you sorry.
It makes you blue.
It makes you recognize when someone using you?
Yes, these are things that love makes you do.

One thing about affection?
It opens your eyes and makes you see many things you refuse to ever see.

It makes you win.
It makes you lose.
Makes you call another a lovesick fool.
Yes, these are the things that love makes you do.

It makes you lonely.
It makes you smile.
Makes you bewilder and go the extra mile.
These are the things that will impress you.

Sometimes I'm not okay,
and while I know it's okay to not be okay,
people don't really care if you aren't.

They tell you, "I'll be there for you,"
but branch away from the topic at hand,
even when all you want is for someone to listen.

I don't need advice or help,
I'm not asking for them to solve my issues either.
I just need to dump some of my feelings out.

My bottle of feelings has reached max capacity.
I'm not asking for you to give me a bigger bottle or say it'll be okay,
I'm simply asking for your help in pouring some down the drain.

So yea, sometimes I'm not okay.
I know it's okay to not be okay.
But, to be okay, I need someone to help me pour my feelings out.

I don't want to keep not being okay just because it's okay to not be okay.
I want to improve my mental health.

One day
I know not when
I yearn for the dawn to arrive
For the sun to bring forth the day
When I may finally bid this prison farewell
Step through the faded door and then
Finally live, rather than just survive
For the day when I can, at last, say
I have escaped this hell

Someday
Regrettably far, far away
There will no longer be the fear
Consuming of a poor dear
Rather release, relief
Free, despite all belief

There will come a day
When all will be at ease
Like a cool, summer breeze
After a day of blistering heat
No more burns upon these aching feet

I used to read your poems
but lately you don't write
you're silent and aloof
you know that isn't right.
You can't close a door once opened
you can't abolish all your dreams
you're a poet of the heart
mustn't fall apart at the seams.
Say what you can in words
they speak the message true
spoken from the heart
the poems will see you through.
A hermit's not your style
a recluse, you are not
never give up writing
of things that you've been taught.
I used to read your poems
I'd read them once again
if you would send them out
(this one's from a poet friend)

My life is a dark night
I'm looking for a light,
I know, I have to fight
for truth and right!

Oh, no one is with me
I am the waterless sea,
I've dreamed of a bee,
but I couldn't be!

My sunshine has gone
I'm glad, you've done
so much for me alone
Someday we'll be one!

The sun makes a day
with the morning ray,
My waving life's bay
is drying day by day!
