i want to write
a happy poem
but
the ink of this pen
is color gray
and blue*

Don't be sad about something you can't change.
You'll look back and wonder how you wasted all that precious time being anything but happy.

Everyone is talking about heart break
Most of your guys hearts ache
Love is not a simple thing
It's often the cause of this oh so painful sting

We try to compensate our emptiness with affection
It's only distraction
We have to love ourself first
To protect our heart from the worst
How can we expect people to accept us when we can't even accept ourselves
It is just a thing that I see most people struggle with, even I struggle with at times. It is very difficult to accept ourselves at times. Maybe sometime we do not worry about those little flaws on ourselves. Mostly these are the things that differ us from the rest and makes us special.
I may look tough
but I am flower
fragile
my petals do break
quite easily too
you don't bother me
I won't hurt you
but this flower
can also be a deadly thing
with thorns and vines
poison that stings
I pack a punch
I know what I want
you try to walk on me
I'll eat you up
flower
that's would they call me
just a fragile plant, you see?

everyone's at war
with different things,
with each other,
and with themselves

nations are at war
our families, at war
our friends, at war
we are at war

but the hardest
war of them all
is the war between
the mind and the heart.
Happy National Poetry Day! :)
"Do you have someone you think about constantly, someone you just can't get out of your head?"
"No."
"You are free from your own thoughts. I envy you. I wish my mind was as peaceful as yours. I wish mine was as peaceful as it used to be. Because all I see before I close my eyes before I sleep is him. And all I want to see when I open them in the morning is him. And how it hurts, it ******* hurts to know that it will never happen."
"Why do you still torment yourself over him?"
"Because no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to let go."
