Those tiny buds blossom;
Like miracles,
Or prayers from the dead.
Uncurling like a baby's fist
White then pink then red.
I forgot how I missed
Those precious beads of life
A transient ode to the suns' first kiss
An end to unending winter,
death, and strife.
The start of new life.

Stuck in the flowers
the deep ugly stealers
purple and pink
vibrant as a heart
naïve eyes
shining like a star
Miles away you  see
vibrations flows from head to feet
Creating theories in your head
That they were perfect
and life was stead
Feet away you see
flowers are dying
and mosquito's feast
Crows are flocking
clouds are forming
Inches away you see
The naïve eyes
are fading  from glee
what happened to the cake
candy and party
You look on dejected as can be
You wondered why going to America
was everyone's fantasy

I've got a fractured heart,
The pain I feel- I cannot part.
Though I've tried
And tried to suspend,
I'd rather **** than feel again.

I know that I am not everything that I may have thought I was at different points and times, yet at the same time, I am more.

There is a dark place
A place where I have no eyes,no mouth. No words.
I can't cry out because I have no breath. The silence is so deep I want to die.
But I can't
The darkness and silence go on forever.
It is not a dream
I don't dream....

Every time he looks at me
I see cracks in his eyes that remind me
Of the only word I’ve ever truly known:
Hope.

He is so prepared to lay himself out at my altar,
Plunge the dagger into his ****** chest,
Bleed onto my statues.
I will not,
I can not,
do the same.

They call me monster behind closed doors.
How can I do that to someone?
How can I let them yearn and pine without giving them a chance,
A chance to be the apple to my eye,
the moon to my tide,
and every cliche in between?

He thinks I can just kiss his scars away.
That my bruised and swollen love can heal his hurt.
But I can’t be his savior and mine.
I will always come first.

The winds are increasing,
Black clouds are forming,
Thunder crashes,
And the rain starts pouring.

Surrounded by darkness,
Can't find your way out,
It seems never-ending,
And your hope dwindles down.

But you're stronger than your problems,
You're brighter than your storms,
You're higher than your downfall,
And you're better than your harm.

It's okay, it's alright,
No matter what you do,
Don't give up your fight.

The winds are increasing,
Black clouds are forming,
Thunder crashes,
And again, it's storming.

But it's okay, it's alright,
No matter what you do,
Don't give up your fight.

You're stronger, brighter, higher, better.
No matter what you do, don't you give up - ever.
