She's what I long to be.
God brought her to me.
Beautiful, loving and kind.
I'm happy to call her mine.

Daughter my parents never had.
To have her I'm so glad.
She knows just what to say.
No matter what, come what may.

Best friend to call my own.
But the coop she already has flown.
So her wisdom she passes on.
We have a special "sibling" bond.

Although not the same descent.
And our relationship recent.
I am proud to call her.
My favourite older sister.
Cheesy poem for my sister Terrin❤️

back into the spotlight
step onto the stage
with all your might
breathe taken away

regain your poise
sing loud, dance on
hear all the noise
night is almost gone

ending, powerful note
together in a moment, mere
no more time to devote
entire lives spent here

living for the thrill
of stepping on that floor
climbed the biggest hill
waiting for fans who adore

lights blind eyes
look into the crowd
this stage is mine
take your bow

i love you my sweet friend
and will always
until all of my days end

while you explore the world
please stay safe
and may I still be your favorite girl

i pray you find what you search for
go far and wide
express your passion, be more

live your life the way you planned
just don't forget about me
you'll have my soul safe in your hand

i will be there when you marry
may it not be me?
yet in your arms, my heart, you carry

she will love you, much more than i
but please remember me
when struggles arise, for you i'll cry

explain to her, let her be understanding
about my love for you
our relationship long lasting

when we've both grown old
may you think of me
my friend not of silver, but gold

i love you my sweet friend
and will always
until all of my days end

think about it,
don't let yourself go.
you are you.
think highly of yourself,
stay away from those who hurt you.
the biggest mistake you could ever make
is bringing yourself down so somebody can reach you.
you are worth every strain, every step
let them come to you.
you are never too much of a woman
for somebody who is not man enough for you.
never apologize for being too good,
let them work to deserve you.

our love used to be
two-sided
collective
and dependent
but it's gone to
unrequited
unanswered
and disconnected.

dark hair
glasses
he cares?
same classes
darling eyes
dashing smile
high five
been a while
pitiful crush
four days
not in a rush
for him out of my brain

no feeling toward you
not even enough to fill
one small haiku
Julia Elise Jul 2015
it was nothing more than a silly game
and maybe that's all it ever was
emotions over ride all else
I wish I had known before
that trusting you would hurt
I hardly knew you
I thought i did
but it was
all a
lie...

see him
again?
been long
since then

one time
a year
he looks
a tear

we say
"goodbye"
my eyes
they cry

lean in
arms strong
moment
has gone

It comes back in flashes,
a faded memory.
I don't want it there,
Squeeze my eyes shut but...
I can see it when I close my eyes,
like it's happening all over again
It plays over and over,
I can't stop it.
Isn't it funny...
Your wildest dreams could become your worst nightmare?

163 pages in our book
all empty but 2
filled with words you cried to me
everything spoken true
the first one says
I love you
the last reads
I love her too
thinking about the last time I saw you.

the silence between the waves scream all the unspoken thoughts.

It's not like there is no feeling for you,
but now there is definitely a change.

I once said that I really loved you too,
and now you are somehow acting so strange.

We are not really talking anymore,
you live far away, but now you feel distant.

I hear your words and fall straight to the floor,
it seems like we'll soon be nonexistent.

Many other things got more important,
don't know why I didn't see it coming.

Our love story was so quickly shortened,
I will be okay, the pain is numbing.

It's been about month, or maybe two.
I can't even remember what it was like to have you.

you are not the clothes you wear
but you are how you wear them

you are not the words you say
but you are how you say them

you are not the way you look
but you are how you look at other people

you are not the person you're with
but you are how you work with them

you are not the lies told about you
but you are how you respond to them

you are not your bad decisions
but you are how you deal with them

you are not your friends
but you are how you treat them

you are not anything...
but you are how you are.

we were never meant
you are you and i am i
to be together

You did not complete me, you destroyed me.

You did not help me, you watched me struggle.

You did not trust me, you doubted me.

You did not believe in me, you broke me down.

You did not hold me, you pushed me away.

You did not care for me, you put up with me.

You did not love me, you lusted after me.

— The End —
