I know how to swim
but love drowning in you

Darling I'm not the same as I was back then,
I thought comets and stars were things in the sky
Until I looked around one day to find
That they're in as many people
As they are in my mind

No one is really ever the same, you see
Everything changes you and me
Every thought and action we do will lead
Into another alternate reality.

What if we turned left instead of right that one day?
Would we have met with early demise?
Or would we have gotten that job we had hoped to find?

See these are the things that are constantly on my mind
For I can't help but contemplate how the stars align
To bring us closer together or further apart
Or weather or not you see someone's true heart.

I guess it's a difficult concept for some to grasp
I mean even I am having a momentary lapse of reason

I guess that's just part of being human
Thinking about what's bigger about us
Or what could bring our downfall

So many of us just sit and contemplate what it means to be in this body
And the longer we think about it the more uncomfortable we become with ourselves

Because with how our world works if you're not a size zero through nine you're not worth the time of the males searching for mates.

Or if the muscles in your stomach don't look like a six-pack then you're not a very good looking male in the first place.

But if you sit and think about how to make this world crumble
You'll see how everyone thinks they're nothing.
But if you tell a girl or guy they're made of stardust and clear skies
They'll laugh and call you a dreamer.

Maybe I am,
Or maybe that's what poets are
Dreamers who think the world is pretty terrible
So they string lines together to create a scenario to help others see the bigger picture

That everyone is made from stardust.
That everyone is beautiful.
Inspired by the quote "You are made of comets and stars, don't let anyone treat you like you are dirt and dust" by unknown

I have tried looking for it in the Church
But just lost it at the touch of the latch
Thought It's fish, by the hook I'd have a catch
Turns out It's an Eagle far from about to perch
I once found It's precious unclear trail
Which trail led me specifically nowhere
One moment it was, the other it wasn't here
I went out clubbing hoping to find my luck
And that proved love isn't a walk in the park
I scratched my mind hoping to get a reply
But in such affairs even the mind can't tell a lie
I thought with tomorrows come a new dawn
Each that came by did but leave me on my own
I searched in every path, every road,every village and town
Wandering, everyone took me for a clown
I explored the young and the old, the real and the tales told
But sunk deep in despair with nothing concrete to hold
I searched in the cracks through the broken walls
Trust me I did stretch my courage, had the *****
I tried to find it, like they said its easier using wallets
I hunted it down, with spears and mallets, guns and bullets
I looked everywhere, paying attention to the different faces
It was neither on my mind nor the streets I tore apart
Even prayer couldn’t bring it on miracle wings
I tried all options there are for we the beings
I didn't know the search starts within the Heart
That's why I was searching for love in the wrong places

Wild Nights—Wild Nights!
Were I with thee
Wild Nights should be
Our luxury!

Futile—the Winds—
To a Heart in port—
Done with the Compass—
Done with the Chart!

Rowing in Eden—
Ah, the Sea!
Might I but moor—Tonight—
In Thee!

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet,
And so are you.



But the roses have wilted,
And the violets are dead,
The sugar bowl is empty,
And my wrist are stained red.

"I" was a fool to believe
"You" was a fool to leave
But when I weigh the pain against the gain
I realize that we need to be foolish again

You lay here beside me, I'm warm in your embrace.
We talk of our future and discuss poetry.
You look into my eyes and declare your love for me.
You kiss me softly, and then I wake up. Alone.

Remember that day
That my heart broke?
I asked about her, and you began to choke
You held me close, you kissed my cheek
You told me it was a big conspiracy

I believed you at first
Yes, I was blind
I didn’t want to believe
You had lied

When I found out the truth,
I wanted to slap you in the head
at that very moment
I wished I was dead

Maybe I am just not enough

but the truth is I did nothing wrong
I was the best I could be all along
if you want to cheat on someone,
then go ahead and see
you will end up alone
losing me
I deserve the best
she’ll break your heart
she’ll do to you
karma’s part

but let me ask
was she worth breaking my heart?
The pain and regret from the very start?
You told her you loved her
I thought you loved me?
One day I know
that you WILL see
Revisions and constructive criticism please!
