I crave you this morning
For you are my sun
Your smile my brightness
When morning does come

Alone at the table
No sound to be heard
Just pouring your coffee
Not saying a word

I sit and I stare
Out the window this day
Such beauty before me
In nature’s display

Still nothing can reason
With how I do feel
When you rise to greet me
I know this is real

I flip through the paper
Though I do not read
My mind is a wander
Of what I believe

I dream of the moment
I look in your eyes
And whisper I love you
Oh won’t you please rise

It seems like forever
Yet only a night
The last time I saw you
A beautiful sight

So I sit here waiting
Until you I see
My day will be perfect
When you smile at me

She paints with her heart, not with her hand,
She expresses herself with every color on her canvas,
Aligned and planned out everything she has ever wanted,
Ready to go paint what she anticipated for so long,
She starts off with a clean white board,
and adds color wherever she goes,
Her smile can represent enough pleasure it gives her,
She sees the beauty of what she has made,

It starts off as a masterpiece, until she makes a mistake,
She wipes it, paints over and tries to make it go away,
She hates herself with each stroke she makes,
She mutters "What ******* I've made"

The color submerge just like water could,
The colors intertwine like roses would,
And in the end she knows that it all should have ended this way,
She says to herself *"It just another one of those days"

I hate my mind's fragility,
How others' words weaken
My heart and my spine.

I've weeped too many nights.
While gripping my knees,
And digging the nails in
To remind myself that
Everything is gonna hurt.
It will not change,

Unless I change it.

I wish to grow a thick skin,
A strong mind with even stronger beliefs,
Intolerance towards anything and everything
That may harm me.

But in wishing so I fear;
The door of my mind will slam shut,
My heart will freeze in its place,
That I will grow so tall I can no longer see my feet,

That I may crush you
And scrape you along the ground,
Unknowingly.

Just as others have done to me.
