I once met a girl
who became the reason why I was smiling everyday
but I was young
I was stupid and I stuffed it up
but honestly she was so amazing
borderline perfection
but I swear I fell for her
and I fell for her hard
she had me telling strangers how great she was
she was the kind of girl you write songs and poems for
the kind of girl you'll drop everything for
she was the one who changed me
leaving a mark I would never forget
a void I can never fill
and now I just feel so ****
empty
She was the girl who made me write my first poem, She was the girl who left me breathless with a pounding  heart and racing mind.

How is it you know nothing,
though you radiate suave.
An absolute perfectionist.
The Suit & Tie life is the aim.
Teach me your ways, Chief.

Shiny shoes, black suit, red tie, red waist coat,
Wasn't ever enough for you? I try
Looking my best every day, take note,
Yet you still will choose him over me why?
You know, you two should not be together,
My disloyal brother, doesn't have a say,
They say young love never lasts forever,
Should’ve steered away, gone the other way,
My true brothers, my friends will stand by me,
Betrayal is the path of a rebel,
I’ll take the last stand and you’ll never see,
This face will skip away like a pebble,
I know that this conflict will end in war,
You’re like the others, just without a core.

Is it known to anyone the weight I carry on my shoulders?
My success in achievements, hidden away in folders.

The people that surround me, missed the spark.
Can't handle the voices screaming in deepest dark.

I'll choose my own path towards the light.
Until that day I'll forever fight.

Time is precious it's gone so fast,
One day it'll come together at last.

Friends & Family happy I've succeeded in life,
But I feel the failure inside me, like a knife.

I'll send all my guilt and doubts on their way,
I'll leave this world with nothing left to say.

We exist as a small colony but,
Were once thriving some time when we were lone,
Can’t take back what they've done, the door is shut,
I sit reminiscing about our home
Neither of us knew what we used to be,
Ancestor’s lives taken ‘long with our land,
Spirit there used to be we could once see,
My boomerang, spear out of our hand,
They replaced our life, stayed and took over,
Drowning our past life with wine and beer,
Too much spirit gone hard to stay sober,
Living life every day in cold dark fear,
In the cold of night we used to light fire,
The man apologized, is a liar.

Hand in hand, we will stand together now,
They thought that we wouldn’t make it this far,
They were right; we should’ve stood down, but how?
Fought for our brotherhood, it’s what we are,
We go down; we go down with each other,
Down to battle on the field to the war
Work hard and play ******* the earth mother
Other team look at us and gaze in awe
My true brothers, my friends will stand by me,
Betrayal is the path of a loser
I’ll take the last stand and you’ll never see,
Smooth on this land we are, battle cruiser
As we just fight over nothing but pride,
In the Earth is where we will soon reside.

What will it take for my words to be ever so true

Indeed it's hard, but that's your cue,

I couldn't be any more sincere,

For my words were ever so dear,

Will you accept my compliments and praise?

Or are your eyes clouded? Purple haze.

We delusional from the burn of heat,
Fields crowded with not-so different men,
Along comes the watchman, just takes a seat,
Whites uninviting make us sleep in dens,
We are unwelcome; go on with no fuss,
Dreaming of bright days, hope this is a phase,
Watchman watching, say bad people is us,
Wrong! Look for a bright future, much haze,
Before you know, we shall leave this rich place,
Poorly treated, frowned upon, discarded,
Won’t find us because we left with no trace,
Here we settle, you thought we’re not guarded,
We paid your fee, tried hard to work your way,
We left along with town, what can you say?
The Chinese on the Australian gold fields.
Eyes glowing fleet with a sweet, tender smile,
Warmth ruffles my naïve heart, a spring bloom.
Red ringlets of blush tickle for a while,
Unfurling petals whisper, panic looms.

A veil over sight all is crystal clear,
My destiny is right in front of me.
You smile, a thousand memories appear,
Each steady step, one hand; love flutters free.

A puff of white hair, which you stroke gently,
Crinkled fingertips laced, a soft glow gleams.
Your eyes slowly trace my face differently,
Clouds of shyness and a scarlet blush beams.

If this were true love, judgment speaks of lies.
My lovely fairytale has no goodbye.
Tah-dah! It is a sonnet.
Yes, I am acutely aware it doesn't precisely follow the Iambic Pentameter. ;)
Nevertheless, hope you enjoy it! x
The parentheses of his smile seem to be an infinity of quotation commas to a story perhaps their little tale. So, it won’t ever end.

As he laughs, his special lady seems to pause for a second before returning it back.

The balmy wind flows in where who knows where, I wish and cross my fingers that it would whisk away those secret whispers between them.

For it seems to be the ingredients for happiness.

There comes that shiver of such tangible affection and love again.
It is enveloping them everywhere, its inside their eyes, it permeates the very air.
Yet another little quote from my Nanowrimo novel.

Hope you enjoyed it!  x
