You lit up my burning
stars. You collected my
ash and dust. Huffed and
puffed till you turned me
into a work of fine art.
You taught me how to
glow in the dark and
spark* ~

Secrets pouring out.
Castles falling down.
The dead are moaning
underground. And the
living are fighting over
the throne and crown.
While the clowns paint
their smiles upside down.
The skies weep tears
of pain. And I'm afraid
the world has gone
insane* ~

She fell in love
with the way his
words dive into
her mouth ~

He carries her heart
where ever he goes.
To feel her love and
warmth. To feel her
presence by his side.
She carries his stars
where ever she goes.
To light her dark in
the dead of night
and to make
her feel
alright ~

First time I heard
his voice the sky
opened and rained
musical notes all
over gentle earth
causing it to give
birth to beautiful
melodies similar
to the ones angels
listen to in the
heavens above* ~

I am stronger than this.
I am stronger than having
my hands and legs tied
and ready to commit suicide.
I have poems ready to burst
deep down from the inside.
Dreams that are waiting to
be chased. A light that is
ready to shine over my
shadows and dark. I am
stronger than this. Water
will not defeat me tonight.
I refuse to give up and die.
I want to exist. To swim to
the surface and make it alive
to the water's shore. I want
to love and live* ~

Don't. Don't cry. It
makes me suffocate
and want to die. Don't
cry. I'll cradle you through
the night and tell you a
lullaby. Those pretty eyes
shouldn't carry sad tears.
Those pretty eyes should
not carry pain. This sounds
insane but when your tears
crash to the floor. I hear
screams that seem louder
from the ones i heard in
movies from television
screens. Don't cry. Because
i don't have the power to
see your smile turn upside
down and form a frown. I
don't have the power to
leave home alone in the
middle of the night to kiss
your tears goodbye. We're
parted by distance but our
love and hearts are in the
same place. The only tears
i want to see are the happy
ones falling down your
handsome face. Where the
best of memories float on
the edge of your lids ready
to sail off free. Ready to mark
gentle earth with our history.
Because I love you I don't
want to see you sad and in
misery. Come on baby please
wipe the tears and lean
forward to kiss me* ~

He's the wolf that followed
the trail of blood. He followed
the drops on the white forest
floor. The cuts were deep and
wounds created a river of red.
No life existed in the water. The
smell of blood was left on my
car seat. And the little wolf
seemed to be following me.
To heal the scars. To howl with
grief at the moon. To call for
help. The little wolf was the
only living soul who had
mercy left. The only soul that
came to rescue me. That
little wolf knew the meaning
of loyalty* ~

His gentleness and
kindness makes her
blush for an eternity.
The words of love he
speaks hold the powers
of sweeping her off her
little feet. All it takes to
make her heart skip
a few of it's beats is
one deep look in his
hazel nut brown
coloured eyes ~

She was suicidal and
sick to the bone. He
was a boy with a mind
of his own. He walked
around with his smokes.
While she walked around
with her body aches and
hurt. They stumbled upon
one another. That was when
he started flirting. He never
questioned her about the
sins her hands did. Neither
about the places where the
razor blade caressed her skin.
He only asked to marry her
and stay by her side till the
end. Till she's healthy and
strong. Till she chops off the
arms of her past. Till she
bursts in giggles and laughs.
And that was when he asked
for her to be his first kiss
while he approached to her
rosy lips* ~

Dancing swans and
painted angel wings.
Melodies coming from
a distant memory.
Dripping ink and bleeding
pages. Unicorns prints
found in the season of
breeding all over hills
with melted snow.
Colours fading from
the walls. And i am left
alone again reading behind
my bedroom door on
the porcelain floor* ~

Tangled in love. Tangled in
his bedsheets. Arms on back
chest to chest. Lips to lips.
That's how they kissed and
kissed. The clouds above in
the sky didn't hesitate and
ask why. The angels above
awed and cried. Tears of joy
and love fell down on them.
The flowers giggled and
gossiped. While the summer
grass outside danced gently
from the left to to the right.
Promises were said in the
language of kisses in bed.
His body was explored with
her hands and tongue as if
he was a shipwreck that was
long gone and she went back
to find the lost treasure just
like in the stories and myths
that were told over centuries.
For his eyes were gems. His
arms were gold. His beauty
looked better than shimmering silverware and pearls. He's
the lost treasure that she claimed
will be hers till the end of time.
For his love drove her insane
and blind. And she found that completely fine. "I'll love for an infinity" she said. "I'll marry you
for that sweet little heart caged
in that chest of yours and keep
you mine. And darling your
beauty will be to blame" he
replied* ~

Your heart is locked, forbidden,
unable to be opened, closed to
everybody for all of eternity, but
I have the lost key to your heart,
the key that will crumble the walls
and opens the door ......... to you*

It's a bit dusty and rusty.
I'll unlock your doors
carefully with tender and
care. I just need you to
trust me. That little heart
of yours will be painted
with colours because i refuse
to sit back and watch it
fade away into the black
and grey. I'll dance with
your ventricles night and
day. I'll make sure it beats
with love. I'll give it little
hugs when your down
and blue. You have my
words because darling
i'm madly in love with
you* ~

Trapped in a bowl under
the sea. Where the gold
fish twist and twirl looking
at me. All i want is to be
free. All i want is to swim
out and be me. Maybe
we're trapped in a metaphor
instead of a glass bowl.
Maybe this is a way to
make us feel pretty and
beautiful. Should i sit on
my chair and start to
meditate ? Or should i
get up and find a way
to escape* ?

Frequencies so low
Heart on a string
A string that only plays solos
Rain made of echoes
Tidal wave rushing on and on
Shell made out of gold
Found on a beach, picked up
and you held so close. Rain washed
out it's glow, heart beat steady leads
me down below ~

She has flowers in her
hair. Daisies , daffodils
and other flowers of
spring. He doesn't like
her to cut it off. Because
he fell in love with every
petal and every stem* ~

Let's paint stripes on our
skin. Let's start with lines
of black and white. Why
not wear masks as we
begin ? We can be crazy
and wild. Touch your stripes.
Become alive. Feel the rush ,
feel the fun. Feel the tingle
from your paint brush. Feel
the untamed animal you have
trapped under your skin. Feel
the adrenaline kicking from
within* ~

A nerd who loves
numbers and letters.
A nerd who wears geeky
glasses and attends all
her classes. A nerd who
bathes in literature every
night and can speak to him
in the language of poetry.
He fell in love with a nerd
like me* ~

The angels sang a song
the day he was born from
the heavens above. He
spoke words of love when
he was just young. Poetry
dripped off his silken poetic
tongue. His heart is pure as
organic fruit. His hands have
done no harm to anyone. They
make love to whatever they
touch. They can heal the broken
and bent. They can heal scars
and cuts. When he was born
heaven knew he'll be her chosen
one* ~

Little boy with wounds
on his heart. And scars
on his feet. Little boy
wondering off and lost
in the streets. Looking for
something to eat. Looking
for his family’s picture in
the sand. Little boy with a
broken toy in his hand. And
bruises on his lips. Runs in
the streets with no clue looking
like a fool. All he wants is a warm
hand to hold and a heart to crawl
in when it’s night and time for
bed* ~

We drink from rivers we
dance like swans. We
chase the sun and run
in the dead of night. We
collect the best of songs
and get drunk on life.
Jump from planet to
planet. And giggle in
the sun. We are the
dream catchers. We
are the chasers of the
light ~

Everything
I have
I have given it
To make you feel alive
You can always take
And I ask nothing
Just to let you live
Happy

To see your eyes
Brimming with joy
To see your smile
With honey oozing
from your voice and
soul

But
Too much pain
For me to bear
It’s about time
To let you feel
Just a tiny glimpse
Of what I can do

I won’t mind if your
love drives me blind
I won’t mind if you bind
me with your wants
I ask for nothing
Just want to see you grow
To free the reality that you
have trapped within your
soul

You take what’s mine
I won’t be selfish
But now you take too much
I’ll make you regret it.

Sometimes I feel I'm going nowhere
I'm moving but I just can't find the way
Surrounded by a million faces
They all say they're my best friends

Take another drink to hide the sorrow
But the morning came and nothing's changed
The concrete skies are rushing by me
And this road is getting old

I light a smoke up but not
to get high. My head is filled
up with thoughts of why. The
skies look the same and the
people around are becoming
lame. Sometimes i feel that i
might go insane. I go to the
bar and get another drink.
Whiskey i think is good for
washing these feelings away.
Especially on these lonely
Saturdays

I heard the radio play your favorite song
Made me think of all the things we used to do
There's so much we used to talk about
And now to endure the pain I must scream and shout

I wonder if i do will you
hear me like the neighbors
do ? The skies are turning
sad and blue. And that's
like the way i feel from the
inside too. I touched my chest
yesterday and felt the cracks
that you left on this heart of
mine. You bled me dry and
left me alone thinking of
suicide with tears on the
bathroom's porcelain floor.
These eyes cried for several
nights. You left me living in
misery and walked out with
not a single goodbye. It's
time to move on. Time to
move to the light. I might
find someone better than
you who's sweet like Winnie
the pooh , Eeyore and Piglet
too. Someone that'll love me
and kiss my scars. Someone
who won't leave me with thoughts
of wanting to die. Forgetting
you seems like the only cure
and right thing to do

But the most important thing is to keep moving on
through. Because as the sun rises this morning it
seems like the best thing to do

The sky is dark.
And the clouds
are crying. But it's
ok for them to break
from time to time.
The rain is falling
washing their pain
away. And earth
feels cold again
today* ~

Dress me up like a pretty
bride. Dress me up in colours
of white. Adjust the flowers
in my hair. Dance with me
to the song in our hearts. Throw
the rose up in the air. I'll twist
and twirl and jump to catch it
in mid air. Holding it in my mouth. Holding it between my teeth i'll
do the salsa and dance around before i hand it over to you.
Because tonight is the night
where we'll be saying our I
do's* ~

A girl who spent along time alone.
Her pretty face has been long
gone. Almost unrecognizable.
With dead autumn leaves in her
hair. Dust on her soul. Long lifeless
twigs wrapped around her waste.
No beauty had existed in her no more.
A lost boy stumbled upon
her in a storm. He had a wondering soul.
Touched  her face and the
pale fading colours of her turned
to red. "You have beautiful emotions trapped
inside" he said. "Mind if i
run my fingers in your beautiful
hair i promise i'll touch it with such tender
and care" He then touched
the leaves slowly running his fingers through
her strands untying the
knots with his beautiful hands.
"Mind if i kiss your cheeks dear ?
I can see your beauty is skin deep here"he said.
She looked at him
with eyes holding oceans rip tides almost
at the edge to burst and
cry replying with "if you don't mind then yes
please do". Lips to cheeks. Heart to heart. Chest
to chest. He kissed life into her soul swiping
her off her little feet. The leaves
fell from her hair. Flowers grew instead.
The twigs fell off. And
the colour of her cheeks turned
to rosy red. "I think i love you" he
said. "Mind if you come over
tonight ? I'd like to keep you safe
and warm in my bed. Infact i'd
like to marry you and be by your
side for the rest of my life. Be my flower
girl be my beautiful wife. I
want you in my life. You're my queen" he side while
he made her a crown
of flowers and bowed down his head. "And
you're  beauty gave me a pulse
rush. It made my cheeks blush.
And the leaves in your hair giggle
with lush". He leant over to kiss her again. That's
when the clouds
sighed above and cried. Making
the rain give everything surrounding them beauty
and life. Making the flowers in her hair bloom
once again with colours that she never knew
had existed ever before. And that's how the story of
their love had began* ~

Eyes are not just eyes.
They hold stories of futures ,
seas and forest trees. Takes
a few minutes for one to see.
Look in your lovers eyes. Take
a moment don't just observe
their eye colour. Search for
stories and lost history. Look
hard and you'll find answers
for unsolved mysteries. Scars
of the past. Gardens bursting
into life. You'll find hope ,
new beginnings and a cozy home.
And if your lucky enough all
you'll see will be endless
amounts of love* ~

Four letters forming one word.
Two vowels jump aboard.
L.O.V.E is not an extraordinary
word. I wrote it down with
ink on the paper looked up
and heard a sigh. Turned left
and right i didn't find anyone
in sight. Grabbed my pen
and looked down to write again.
Found the paper moving
gently up and down. And i
heard the letters sigh. Thought
I'm high but what i saw and
heard was true. Ran a finger
on the letters written down i
felt a pulse. As if the letters
had a heart beat of their own.
Ran to shut my bedroom door
so no one walks in. Grabbed
my pen and wrote the L and O
the V and the E. And the letters
giggled at me saying "We know
about you and him*" ~

She walks in the room where
her mom is in. No one listens
cause she flips on the news
with the volume on high. "Hey
mom i met a guy from twitter
he's supposed to meet me first
day of college same age but
different faculty" she'd say.
Comes back from college
enters home. Finds her mom screaming and shouting and
if she could she'd probably kick
her daughter out the door.
Slams lunch on the kitchen
table "don't talk to me with
attitude cause i'm sick and tired
of you and your talks are such
a bore and make sure you don't
drop any food on the floor".
That's when she decided to not
to try with her mom no more.
Took her secrets and tucked
them under her skin. She hid
her twitter love in the chambers
of her heart. Walked in and out
of home without a single word
to say. She found love far from
home. That's what she's holding
on. She got her flowers on
mother's day all she heard from
her mom was why'd you waste
our money instead of thank you
for remembering me on such a
day. No more trying this place
isn't home. Home is in his two
arms and wolf like looking eyes. Waiting a few more years till
she'll be long gone moving into
a new place carrying her memories along. A place with no screaming
or cursing no hitting or abuse.
No fear or chocking on a noose.
Just a home with him and her.
Just a home with no storms. A
home waiting for a caring husband and a loving wife to carve their
stories on the walls and bring
them to life. And like
he'd always say the best is
yet to come one day. Hold on
your faith and pray i'll be by your
side always and stay* ~

Did you see the war zone
in her head. The dark clouds
coming crashing in. How her
sun bled every afternoon
with different shades of red.
Did you see scars on her hips
and hands ? The lines by razor
blades on her delicate skin ?
Did you see how she walked
with pride out of it all leaving
the chaos she had in her head
behind ? How she slipped her
boots on and walked out of it
holding the red rose with it's
thorns ? She found someone
to push her dark clouds away.
Someone to share her life with
and play. Someone with a shining
light to keep her safe. To guide
her night and day. Someone who
told her it's going to be ok* ~

I refuse to let the culture
stop me from loving you.
I refuse to let people get
in the way. I'll use my nails
to cut the noose they'll try
to choke me with. The
tears that will fall from my
eyes will be like ocean waves.
They'll put out the fire and flames
that will catch on their gasoline
soaked ropes they'll use to
tie me up with. Our love
will live. It's free and true.
No man will come through
me and you. And i'll always
fight when it comes to you.
A love like this deserves a
chance to grow and bloom* ~

Wrote your name on
the sea shore. Had the
fear that the water might
wash it away during the
day. The shells from the
water gathered themselves
to spell your name out.
Pretty pink clams , seaweed
and shiny rocks as well.
The stars shined down
at night and made your
name shine bright.
Leading lost ships to
shore leading the lost
to home. Leading my
heart to fall in love
with yours* ~

Caught in your love like
a fish in a net. Like dew on
flowers of spring. Like rain
on wet summer grass. Like
frosting on my favorite flavored
cupcake. Like a snow flake
on a child's tongue. Like your
kiss on my lips. Like your your
hands on my hips. Like your
tongue on my neck. I am
caught in your love. Like your
beating heart in your chest.
Like your heart caught in your
rib cage* ~

He made a garden out of her.
Pulled the weeds from the
cracks of her bones. Parted
the curtains of her soul to allow
the sunshine to pass right
through. Planted tulips and
roses. Dandelions as well.
Watered her gardens with
the water dripping from the
side of his hands. He sits and
smiles as the flowers bloom
and grow. He sits and smiles
as the gardens give colour to
her soul. The vines wrap
themselves so gently around
the cage of her ribs. Morning
dew falls on the petals from
within making the photosynthesis process begin while the sunshine
pours down on them. He made
a garden out of her and that's how their story of love began* ~

Dear forest leaves ,                                             Do you tell your trees
your "I love you's" before
you drop from the branch ?
Do you tell them "I'll miss
you" before you fall silently
to the ground. Do you ever
look back before touching
gentle earth's damp soil.
Do you make love to the tree
before you wonder off wild
and free dancing on the forest
floor as the winds move you
from the right to the left ?
Do you forest leaves ? If yes ,
then tell me your story
passionately* ~

I wish my words could
string themselves together
to form an ocean for you.
I wish for them to string
themselves and form a
quilt to keep you warm
when I'm not around to
wrap you in my arms and
when the sun sets down.
I wish these words could
form a song to play in your
head when the world's
noise is too much to take.
I wish the letters of these
words gather and imprint
themselves on my skin for
you to read as a bedtime
story after midnight when
its late and dark and i lay
my head on your chest next
to you on bed. I wish my
words string themselves
together just for you , to
keep , to read and to be
their whenever you feel
sad and blue. Oh darling
if only you knew how much
i want these tiny wishes to
come true* ~

Whistle to the wind when
you miss me and i'll come flying
to you the way pretty birds
do. Whistle to the ocean
waves that you miss me and i'll
swim across the atlantic
just for you. Whistle to the
autumn leaves that you miss
me and i'll fall effortlessly at
your feet. Kissing them both
and making my way up to
your lips using  your ribs
to climb up on as if they are the
staircase that lead to sweet
heaven* ~

The earth whispered
that your beautiful down
to the bone. Beautiful like
a rose with thorns.While my
heart counted from one to
two. And my lips parted to
tell you the words of how
much I love you* ~
