If I am your crush, then adore me from afar.

Love me throughout the good times and the bad times.

Reminisce our friendship and let it embrace you.

Let it take you to that special place where you can feel alive.


If I am your crush, laugh with me about the stupidest things

Also, laugh at me for being weird. If anything, laugh too much.

Laughter is the best medicine.


If I am your crush, be the girl that I want to adore. Be cute, be adorkable.

And also be clever. Be a dime a dozen. Woo me over until i’m blue in the face.

That isn’t hard to do.


If I am your crush, then lie with me underneath the stars and tell me you love me.

Make me believe it, let those words flow from your mouth and into my soul.

Take me out on dates and if we’re too lazy to go out then we’ll stay home, cuddle and watch movies.

You know, cutesy stuff.


But most importantly, if I am your crush....

Never let me go, because you'll stay right here, in my feeble weakened heart. Not wanting to escape.

I wish that you could hear my voice.
I wish that you could hear my thoughts.
This pain is like a bullet to my chest, and I feel so alone.

Can we find a way to make this work?
Can we try to keep this fire from dying?
How can I live without your angelic form beside me?

Sometimes I wish I had gone, gone far away.
Hidden, from the truth. Masked away the pain.

What would you do if I just walked away?
Would you stay? Here with me?

Is this love or is it lust?
I can never tell.

I thought that this could have been different.
When we met that day.
You were like a shooting star, just waiting to fall down.

And I waited for that moment when I thought that this love could bloom.
This could be a fairy tale waiting to happen.
All this is, is my attempt at love.

I don’t do it for excitement or for fulfillment. Or even a reputation.
I do it from the heart, and that’s all that matters.
Draft of recent poem.

“What is love?” ........... No seriously, what is love? That’s the question I always ask myself. They say love has no definition. But I beg to differ. Love is cherishing every moment together, enjoying each others company, being there for them at any time, walking hand in hand, thinking about that person 24/7 365 days a year. Everyone has the opportunity to feel in love, some people tend to ignore it. Love can be a simple smile or a gentile wave, you just have to believe. Love is commonly compared to lust. Unlike love, lust is something very different. It can be a ****** desire or a passionate feeling about someone. But, compared to love. It’s only an illusion. When you realize that you love someone, you will try everything to be with them, what if they don’t love you back? That’s the problem with relationships today. They tend to end abruptly for no apparent reason. You can’t just stop loving someone, it’s not that easy. You can say that you are “happy” but the reality is, you aren’t. Nothing can truly cover up your emotions. Not even music. They say that love is hard because that it means it’s special and worth the fight. Well, it certainly is. The definition of love. One chance, two lives, endless possibilities and an entire lifetime to grow. You just need to know when to start....

Oh, how I always wanted to live in an 8-bit world
Side-scrolling action
Duck hunts galore
As much currency as a first-world country
It’s hard not to love it
From Pokémon to Kid Icarus
The nostalgia nearly takes my breath away
I won’t let problems stack up like Tetris
I’m not being chased by ghosts crying,
“Wacka, wacka, wacka, wacka, wacka”
This isn’t a video game, it’s real life
When you die you don’t respawn like nothing ever happened
No, this is it. One life.
I’m placing blocks in Minecraft
Pwning n00bz in Call of Duty
Gaining headshots on Grunts like Master Chief
Gathering rings in Sonic the Hedgehog
Sneaking around like Ezio Auditore da Firenze
And delivering newspapers like Paperboy
While escaping the mysterious Slenderman
I’m living in this virtual world without danger
I don’t want to make it on these streets like Frogger
I don’t have big shoes to fill like the plumber or the blue blur
This ain’t no sandbox or first-person shooter, it’s reality
So, live it to the fullest, don’t rage quit
First full poem.

Winter

         cold, icy
        
    freezing, frosting, snowing
           blizzards, flurries - melting, sweating
      
              clear, sprinklers, sunny sky
         
  warm, heat
  
Summer.

The door opened at the close.
A form so elagant appeared from within.
The master plan had to arose.
The sword was oh so paper thin.

She waited at dawn.
For the cavalry to fall.
She was wrongly informed.
