Sometimes beauty can be so simple
No glitter nor magic in finer details
Something authentic and raw, like crystal
You can be as you are, simply beautiful

Your definition of beauty bares no need
For fancy words or deeper meanings
I have found that my definition of beauty
More than a definition, it is but a feeling

I look at the cloud cluttered filled sky
It brings me the sweet sound of rain
Then it turns into a star speckled night
I feel a sense of beauty again

I hear the smooth rhythm of an upbeat song
With lyrical play bounded to the music
Then another piece plays only on rhythmic sound
A calm, soothing, soul touching acoustic

I find myself gravitating to beautiful things
Things that flourish within their elements
Beauty to me, is not only what shines or sings
But a story told through genuine sentiment an found in more ways then one

The pull on my heart
Tonight
Hard to tell what
Is real
This anger I feel
is real
This will fades over time
Right
This overwhelming
Pull on my heart
Am I even worth the fight
The pull on my heart
A struggle
The pull on my heart

I’m scared of not missing you anymore, I’m scared to live that day.
I’m scared my mind will erase the memory of the day you went away.
I put a lot of trust in you, you said that you were different.
Your intellect was beyond the hood, but I guess not far enough to miss it.

I guess I should’ve told you that I’m really sensitive, though I try to act like I don’t mind, that night I still relive.
I’m ashamed because I know I love you way more than you like me,
and that I cry for you when you’re not here so much that I can’t see.

This headache just won’t go away its been here since you left.
Though loud yet meek, though screaming yet bleak, this loss truly feels like death.
I pray you don’t feel these words are a stretch because we’ve shared limited time,
or that I’m completely insane for tatting your name, assuring I’ve lost my mind.

Well, the truth is that you are for me, and I’ve known it since we met.
Yeah, we fought, loved, broken up, but there’s something you just have to get.
I don’t want anyone else baby doll, I don’t want another man.
I’ll build you up and give you my heart to cradle in your hand.

I admit I am attached baby, and dangerously its true.
That I want to offer my body and soul as a sacrifice to you.
I pray you never leave my side though physical I can take,
but mentally please stay awhile and never leave this place.

365 days is the longest fight I feel I’ve already been beat.
That waiting is indeed the hardest game and I’ve just succumbed to defeat.
Terell aka my babe that definitely is what you are.
Though unspoken yet chanted, and rough yet romantic, this love was written in the stars.

I don’t know what you feel inside, or if this load you can carry.
If you'll settle down and marry.
I feel we’ll be getting to know each other more so here than before,
so open and let me in because it’s you that I adore.

The fate of this relationship is exclusively up to you, ill be holding down my end until my biggest dream comes true-
I love you

Dear sunset, read this and feel bliss. I want to feel that with you, I want to see you grow old , I want to have ppl tell love stories of us, I want to laugh silly with you. I want your head on my shoulder as we sit on a park bench and reminisce about stories from our childhood, our future plans and our fears and our hopes.

Flowers and trees, sunrise and sunset, downpour and shine, laughs and smiles, giggles and tears of joy, bliss and lonely days, risks and fears, dreams and fantasies, aspirations and plans, photographs and memories, notes and little sweet nothings.

Joy’s in bed, scrumptious dinners, and a night of talking with sweet tender massages. I wish to come home and make you my refuge, my escape, my haven and my comforter. I want to prepare breakfast for you, I long for us to have a romantic dinner. Let us travel the world, let us explore places together, in the process get to know more about each other.

Let us start a friendship and let us make memories. I will open myself up and allow me to enter your life as you enter mine. Cherish the company of your children as we usher in a harmonious blending of families and relationships. Be honest with me for I will be honest with you. Be ready to accept me for what I am as a human being and I promise to be understanding. Let us play this game called love where we will be winners and only adversaries and trials will lose.

I have been waiting a long time for you. I aspire for you to be my inspiration and the giver of giggles and giddiness. I am overflowing with love and affection and I aspire to spend all my waking days with you. Be my girl, my woman, my friend, my partner and my soul mate. Come into my life, you are more than welcome. I want to feel your presence, to have the warmth of your embrace, the tenderness of your kiss, and I wish to be the recipient of your love and care. Kiss this frog, unleash my heart, allow our heartbeats to append and collaborate true love.

Your fingerprints are on my heart.

Fingerprints that teach me about caring.

Fingerprints that teach me about love.

Fingerprints that teach me about courage.

Fingerprints that teach me about hope.

Fingerprints that bring me closer to my loved ones.

Fingerprints that bring me closer to myself.

In the time I cared for you my whole life changed —

never to be the same again

All this from tiny fingerprints that touch my heart.

You will live in my heart forever – never to be forgotten.

I will always love you.

You are my child.
I have a Heavy heart tonight you are on my mind

Time after time
I've stood for
Who I Am
What I Am
For the first time
I've begin to
Lose the fight
To take a step
Back an put my pride
Aside an let my heart
Guild with no pride
Insight
Time after time
I told myself not to forget
Myself the war I had to fight
Just to find my path
Time after time
I felt nothing would ever be worth
Stepping aside to hide my scars
From out of nowhere
Now here you are from
Nowhere to everywhere
From war to family
Has made me change my pace
From out of hiddin to being hidden
I've never had to make the choice from time to time I wonder who I would be if I
Choose a different path maybe from now on I cant wait to see who I'll be coming with you and the boys you are worth From day to night,
From sunrise to sunset.
From your smile to your laugh.
Everything about you,
Makes me fall even more.
Every second of the day,
You never leave my mind.
From your kiss to your touch,
As soft as silk.
You're eyes are breath taking,
Every time you touch me,
I feel no fear.
Every time I see you,
I can't help but stare.
When others are in the room,
My only focus is you an the boys
I'll say it from time to time I'll never regret this path to the family worth it all
I am yours an you are mine
Keep this in mind  from time to time

I feel the urge
to share my soul,
I have the need to
let myself go..

I burn within
my mind melts down..
I learn within
there's no coming back down...

The urge to purge
all my deepest fears and truths
returns to rush through
and share with you..
but still I stay here with only myself
slowly losing those fears
so now I sit enthralled
and more entranced as I explore
the entrance into ethereal landscapes
beyond mere visualization
or "hallucinations" I assume it's
different in some way from every
entities point of view but to me
it's true we share this sacred space
while wearing different faces
surviving through these shifting stages
while pursuing altered phases
and states of mind
but we've all been placed in this
unstable dimension
drowning or staying afloat
in our hopes or hellish states..
