Tonight I'll write about you,
And If by some chance,
You read this,
Know that,
I'm thinking of you.

Tonight I'll write about you,
How the stars shine brighter,
When we're together,
How your presence,
Is warmer,
Than a million suns combined.

This is one of those nights,
Where I always wondered,
How you got lost in my mind,
And never really found your way out.

We used to talk about the future,
But now its here,
And you are not.

So tonight I'll write about you,
Even if it hurts
I'll write about you,
Even if you don't want me to.

As I sit here,
Looking at the picture of you two,
I knew,
Your body,
Wrapped inside his arms,
Felt safer,
Than it ever was with me,
With your smile,
Twice as wide,
And your eyes,
Twice as happy,

In that moment,
I wanted to ****** the happiness,
Out of your faces,
You're inlove I know,
You're happy I know,
But why couldn't that be me?
Why couldn't it be us?
Yea, I kinda have been inlove with this girl for a long long time now, even though we've been together, I ****** it up because of my poor decisions, and now here I am, hoping that we could try again even though that could never be possible. I wrote this poem because I kinda want to feel what would it be like if she finds someone better, I wanna be better, I'll be better, for her.

To the girl who writes,
My love,
My life,
My heart beats,
For no other.

To the girl who writes,
Her love,
Her life,
We could never be together.

For in her words,
She thinks of someone else,

For the girl who writes,
Loves another.
Help me get better with my writing! Also check out my other poems :>

Under the starry sky,
Sat you and me,
We talked about nothing and everything,
Each word full of glee.

As a shooting star passed,
I only thought of you,
How your eyes glimmer,
Brighter than any star,
How the moon envies,
The way you smile.

I wished you happiness,
As any lover would do,
I didn't wish for you to be mine,
For I know it Wouldn't be true.

I wish my feelings would go,
Just as fast as a shooting star,
But it doesn't work that way,
And it hurts every day,
To the boy she loves,
Please stay,
For she is vast as the universe,
Deeper than any ocean,
Please love her like she loves you,
So in a way,
I could be happy too.
So there's this girl that I really really like, but she does not look at me that way and I could only love her from afar. Seeing her with someone else kills me. We really don't get to choose who we love. That *****.

i thought to myself,

while i was watching the colorful fireworks

explode into the air



first, a single flare of light,

like a comet,

piercing the midnight sky.



then dispersed into many pieces,

bright and colorful lights filled the heavens.

but slowly,

faded into darkness.


Maybe it's like us.


first a single pair of light

our love bloomed into a thousand colors.

then it was shattered, scattered, our once colorful love into pieces

as we reached the peak of our love.

Slowly falling out of the sky,

slowly the colors were going dim.

and here we are.

we faded into nothing.

I closed my eyes,
And thought of you,
Us,
Another memory,
Another time

Filled with pain,
How smiles turned to frowns,
How eyes of warmth,
Turned cold, and empty.

Each night I lay,
Awake in bed,
With thoughts of you,
That i go through,

How times of love,
Slowly turned,
Into tiny bits of torture.
