at the dead of night
she wakes
and finds herself
in a maze which is her mind
and she can't escape
the fact that
you don't love her back.

shh
i don't like to verbally fight
so when someone throws
their anger at me
i can just stay silent
and not say a single word.

i don't like to admit things
so when you ask me
for reasons
i can just stay silent
and not say a single word

i don't like to ruin things
so when you decide to
spend time with me
i'd love that and
i can just stay silent
and not say a single word
(c.r)
i don't know if this will make sense but when i'm angry i stay silent and when i feel loved i also stay silent

what is happiness?
they say the definition is:
"state of well-being characterized by
emotions ranging from
contentment to intense joy."

well in my opinion
happiness is found
in yourself

and for me,
i found happiness
from yours
(c.r)
i'm so happy that my overall poems have been viewed two-thousand times, it means so much to see people read one or two or maybe more, and it means much more when you like them.

but how do you not want
  to live in the past?
   everything was fine!
    people were happy,
     and so was I
          

                don't you want to be
                happy?

it still surprises me
that i remember the places
                            the people
                            everything
                           (well not everything but you get me)
as i have a capability of going
through the places i've been before
and i can relive those moments
even though i left
for more than 2 years ago

i wonder why
           i don't go outside as much
           i don't talk to my friends as much
           i don't smile as much
i wonder why
           i cry more
           i frown more
           i stay indoors more
           i want you more
              (when you don't want me at all)

i don't particularly enjoy seeing
people sleep, as i often fear
not knowing when their inhale
could be the last.

first time the alignment of the poem is on the right
