There was a lady who wore a green beanie
She knew how to break my heart

And so I offered her water

But I dared not look in her eyes
For fear of seeing her broken smile

Even so she thanked me

And I closed the door feeling lighter
Happy I kept face

Once I made it home though
I began to cry

In the dark
Where secretes are easily kept

For old ladies
And striped orange summer dresses

Who still continued to wear green beanies.
****. Today was rough.

But I know I am truly blessed.

I have never ran,  or burned beyond
any safe haven,
And your wit was lonely at times
In lost ripped things

Which in the end, forgot me.
Because  I cannot return out of spite

You're afraid  
And you've striven
Although I myself have finished

You braved always strong by strong
And myself?
I acted.
(And resurfaced, screaming because I loved)

Her wispy memories
And your wistfulness drowned me at times

But I still remembered and stood
Lost, and very much torn

As the wonderful  fought
The tainted forgot
Always reaching

Because nothing
Which we are
Blurred at the edges
And it continues breaking when you're gone

Your heart is hardened
But I can still cry

Because whose really the one who is aloud to be called strong?

I listened to you with a  giving heart
Even though at times what you said was  foreign,
And you laughed, clever and bitter

With each slur of the tongue

(I do not wish anymore.)

What is it about you that reached
and understood; everything and nothing
Not the stains of your heart in all its  lonesome
But still it continued to be full of everything frightening.

You're still so high, and it's dark up there isn't it?
I tried one of those mad lib poem things, where you enter a bunch of adjectives and verbs and all that.

This is what came up.

I tweaked it of course and made it flow better.

I really like how it came out.

It's confusing, and at times sounds like I have no idea what I'm talking about.

But that's love isn't it?

The rainbow laughs
In a wonderful sort of way
An array of colors
That never fail to stop your heart.

The clouds continue to to weep
In a constant drizzle
I always hated goodbyes.

My lips hurt
As I whisper my heart
To the speechless moon.
Short poems are my favorite.

It is a naked sort of feeling
When you're not around

And I am colder than usual
In this room of things that fall

As the ceiling continues to drop
My heart does not stop hurting

Or keep my eyes from seeing
How empty this room is without you

You're a hero in the sand
And although the waters continue to wash you away
I will never fail to rebuild you
