I bleed in different shades
of poetry. I don't bleed in
the colours of red. I write
down love letters for you.
To guide you on the days
where i can't come over
to hold your hand and kiss
your neck. To light the darkness
found in your room. To shut
the noise in your head. And  
to scare the shadows that come
out every night wanting to play.
I write these words for you. The
letters back down in my throat.
I won't deny it hurts to choke
on love. They are too shy
to tremble from my lips.
Therefore i sigh and write
them down with nothing
but black ink, a pen and a
gentle kiss on your
coffee coloured
skin* ~

You peeled the mask
off my face. Saw the
scars that marked my
flesh. Caressed the skin
below. You called me
pretty as you sighed your
poetry down my throat. I
watched your eyes make
love to my soul. In that
moment i knew you would
be my home for an eternity
and i couldn't ask my God
for more* ~

If you seen such a message don't reply and the same message has been sent to many other poets on HP this persons profile has no poems on it either or followers which makes the issue seem a bit suspicious and weird

Rosy cheeks. Cranberry
flavored lips. Wild curls like
dandelions in my eyes. A
shy smile that took a while
to be formed. Innocence of
a lost child is what i see in
your beautiful face. Thick
eyebrows perfectly drawn
just like the ones of a wolf
in the woods. I'm still left
with the question how many
days did it take God to
create the details found
on your skin and face
every time i watch the
sun set and rise in your
beautiful eyes* ~

There is a land mine in my
lungs. It explodes when your
not nearby. And im left alone
with my soul wanting to cry.
Wanting you with me. Wanting
to feel your body heat. And your hands all over me.

There is a car crash in my eyes.
When i don't see you i see terrible stories and lies. Your presence
makes things easy and alright.
Your love makes the blood pump normally through my arteries. Your
all that i want darling. Your all
that i want sweetheart* ~

Wrap me up and save
me. I'm drowning in God's
seas again. The waves
are hard to escape. I can't
breathe as the water is filling
up my lungs again. People
gathered to watch my
miserable life end. No
one offered me a hand.
You were the only man
willing to dive and take
the swim. You dragged
me above the waves. Held
my head up and cried in
pain "Please don't do this
again". "Breath in breathe
and out". "Breathe in the
words trembling from my
mouth" "Breathe in these
words of I love you and i'll
always do till the very end"
he said as he dragged me
to the sea shore. Where he
laid my body down. Kissed
my lips and neck. Where
he picked the seaweed
off my golden coloured
dress* ~
