I'm not a singer so I can't sing you a song

I'm not a painter so I can't paint your beautiful face

I'm not the queen so I can't give anything you want

I'm just a girl with a pen in her hand and words in her heart

*So i'll write you a poem

The Basic Futility Of Explanation

sometimes he wonders
why he lives this way

how he came to stay
alone with a silent cat
in rooms without ceilings
no plans less money
and debts to pay

waking to iron silence
at break of day

trying to fill it with words
that dance and play

old friends and lovers
dead or far away

loneliness
he cannot slay

somehow he simply
went astray

there isn't really
much to say

he couldn't tell you
why he lives this way

Haiku Needs Help

Kiru, Kireji
I tried but I guess Haiku
Is just not for me

Leigh Herondale *August 2015

The first and possibly the last Haiku I would make in my whole existence. But I really want to learn, will somebody teach me? :)

Phrases

"Forever" is overused,
As well as "I'm okay",
"I love you" is a lie,
"I'm sorry" is ******* plain.

intoxicated

you thought drunken hickeys
were for losers.
so you gave me sober bruises
now are we lovers?

torn

i am constantly torn between killing myself and killing somebody around me

unspoken

solely engrossed, slow to emotions
prone to be a soul that is broken
lowly focus, frozen devotion
vocal notions erode when unspoken

doing fine, i lie with a smile
while i fight my own private trial
i clear my head, i'm alright for a while
but
a mind that is clear is a mind in denial

goal, avoidance of a throat opened
my vocal notions will go unspoken
choking on the voices stolen
prone to be a soul that is broken

working with long o and long i sounds

Hug of ****

When I recall about the special lock,
Your hands, curled around my waist,
When biting my nose, you used to mock,
" I'll eat your cute little nose someday in haste"

I die within..

How ******-up Right?

She assumed it was commitment
But he was up for just a musement
Oh how she held him tight
All the while he played her right
Hers is a dreamy future with him
His head in the clouds, of partying and daydrem.
To him he's just another girl
To her he is her whole world.

She

She's not just "a girl you know"
or someone you see on the streets.
Above anything, she's a dream
a gift
a miracle
every inch of her is a universe
you'd have trouble trying to define.
Tell her you love her
only if you really do,
if not then leave her alone.
You can try to fool her
but you should know
you're the one to fall down
in the end.

Realization

In this shallow age
of facebook,
instagram, selfie,
I realized one thing,
I'd rather be called intellectual than pretty.
