Our love

we can't compare our love to an elegant rose
or a cheerful sunflower
not even the weeds in the grass can signify our lows

our love is a tornado
its strong and its scary
one minute its there the next minute its gone

we can't map our love on a piece of paper
or track it over our skin

our love is an invisible squiggle
its meant to never be seen
and its destined to end

our love,
probably,
is not even shared between us

Stop Crying

I know you're leaving me soon
& I'm suffocating
just the mention of your name
& I'm in tears
they show me your picture
& I'm desperate for forever

please don't go
I don't want to miss you

Write Me

I want you to write me,
some want to be painted
pretty colors, slow strokes of brush to paper

but I don't want that

I want bold words to describe me
imagery so vivid
you can see me, even when I'm not there

I want sentences so strong,
no one would dare confuse me
for something I'm not

I want you to write me
because then maybe
you'll finally understand me

TML

I want to hold your hand
as I did when the panic settled in
Your touch was enough
to make me feel like everything was going to be okay

I want to turn my head and see your face
that smile on you- I could never erase
no matter- whatever I did

You have always been my angel
just now, you are my angel in the sky

I miss you

Winds Terror

In the dark of night wind shrilled
he had to let go of the terror of which he was filled
soon came sun, ready to steal the spotlight
she danced and beamed, she was a delight
and wind accepted this defeat, he let his fear be stilled

my take at writing a limerick

13780

he didn't sin
he wasn't deserving
his body didn't even know it

some say it was
bad luck, maybe..
just a freak occurrence

but
death couldn't care
she gave him 13870 days
not a day less and not a day more
her word is always final

Receive-Less

why do we try so hard to please
we always turn the corner
& no one is trying to please us

why do we hope so much
we always wake up
& no dream ever greets us

why do we always say I love you
we always long to hear it
& we never do

we always give, we always hope, we always long, we always speak
but that's just it- we never receive
