Dear Strong,
Stay.

No matter what,
Stay.

No matter how hard
the wind hits you,
Stay.

No matter how painful
the scars on your soul,
Stay.

No matter how empty
and lonely you are,
Stay.

No matter how heavy
the rain of tears
that falls from your well of fears,
Stay.

No matter how tired
your legs are
from running in the jungle of thoughts,
Stay.  

No matter how hurtful
the song of tortures that came from the mouth of unbelievers,
Stay.

No matter how annoyed
you are by the colors of the fake rainbows,
Stay.

Stay and Stay.
You only have yourself.
You need you,
as much as they need you.

Stay.
Just Stay.
You'll make wonders
when you
Stay, Dear Strong.
Two petite boats made from an old piece of paper are ready to swim
You eagerly watch as I drift them in

Its raining, its pouring
Our boats are sailing
Tiny ripples make the water a trampoline
But the boats manage not to dive in

Aye aye I am the captain
Quit drowning yourself in
For my son loves to see you sail
And I would love to see him smile
I ask you "Who's your favourite"?
You pause for a second
Then you start thinking and search for an answer
And you say "You"
But you already lost me there when you paused
I thought your love for me had no clause
But no matter what, you are my only favourite
Your tiny fingers stretch out the corners of my lips
I shoot out a smile
In the box that housed,
my shiny red boots.

Lie the reminders of the life I had.

With you.

Used cinema tickets,
crumpled and torn.
Print outs from photo booths.
Our inhibitions swept away,
by the buzz of drink.
thoughtful mood this evening,  though a cat is  begging for spaceon my lap so  i must go!
all it took
was for you to look at me
to remind me of all the reasons
why i fell in love
water strikes lightning
your skin under my touch.
mouth consumed in love
eyes rising above dusk.

smoke shattering glass,
fragments of gasps and sighs.
body pinned under
in between the sunrise

breaths held to suspend,
fall from the edge of night.
wave crashing over,
melting us out of sight.

What's worse?
Falling for someone you can never have,
or falling for someone who you could have had?

Can I see you in a teardrop from a blind man's cry
