I miss you more than the sun and the rainbow,
I miss you more as this hurt and pain grows,
I wish to be with you, right now 
But sadly, I got to wait a while 

I miss you more than the festive season,
I miss someone and you're the reason,
I can't wait to see your smile,
But sadly I got to wait a while, 

I know that you're reading this right now 
And I hope you're wearing a big smile 
Even though this poem may not be perfect 
Understand it's my first attempt 

As the tears roll down my cheeks 
I'm in this mood and it is so bleak 
I know these rhymes don't make sense 
But my thoughts right now are quite dense 

I'll improve on my romantic rhymes 
Even though I don't make a dime 
But that doesn't matter 
What matters is 
You and I

What the hell did I just do?
I've finally done it.
Once everyone hears,
my barrier will be gone.

I made myself vulnerable.
Allowed them to hear my poetry.
My poetry,
which is mine.
My poems are for me.

Now...
Now they will all see my insides.
All the pain.
All the tears.
All the...me...

All the me,
which I did not want them to see.
All the me,
which I have spent years hiding.
All the me,
which no one wants to see.

I have finally done it...

****.

My hands were little
Where yours where not
Tipped in cherry red satin
Flowers seemed to follow your footsteps
"Hold ya!"
My arms stretched high above your knees
For love
I grew up knowing that comfort
Every tear. Every heartbreak.
Soothed by your whispers
Calmed against the cradle of your heart
When the time comes
For you to  ease into the shadows
Know that these arms will be there
*As your's have always been before
