Each time you come you mend me
Each time you go you break me
You keep coming and going
I keep mending and breaking

Can you stay if you wanna stay?
Or go if you wanna leave?
I can settle for mending
Or breaking
But never in between.

Chasing Butterflies
Dee Oct 2015
Chasing butterflies into the sky
I wonder why they have to fly
And just as it seemed it should be
I cant't keep them just to me

The more I'd go after and chasing
The more I feel like losing
And every time I hold a butterfly
I have to open my hands and let it fly

Chasing butterflies into the sky
Letting them go or else they die
But something also dies inside of me
Every time I set one free

I don't know why when we shall grow
We have to give up things and let them go
And things to which we must say our good byes
Are times we spent chasing butterflies.
I wrote this poem last year during one of my review classes for the CPA board exam.

You are like a poem
my mind recites to me repeatedly
Even if thoughts of loving and losing you
Bring me into tears
to my gangster love

I am torn between loving and unloving you;
Burning bridges and closing doors
Or jumping into the void
And perhaps;
Learn how to fly.

I saw a long haired man
Smiling in delight
And I remember you
I saw a man with tattoos
I used to be scared of
But I smiled
Remembering the art
Painted on your body

I saw a white guy on the streets
Holding a lass
Smiling and whispering, a sweet sight
And I thought
Would it be sweeter
If it were you and I?

I think about you
In every story you told me
In everyone and everything
I hear your name
All the time
And I wonder;
Was it coincidence?
Or was I hearing that name for such a long time
But never cared
Until I knew you

Your name sounds sweet
To my ears.
That I can't help but smile
I would look back and search the soul
That owns that name
Hoping someday
I will see you.

to begin is always scary
difficult and beyond grasp
to stay stagnant however;
dreaming the same dream
and not doing anything
afraid of change and discoveries
unwilling to fly
I guess it is more frightening
Than taking the first steps
That would lead you
To wherever
As long as it is not the same place.

If you were a flower
I wouldn't pick you.

I would water you daily
And watch you grow.

You are my 12am thoughts.
Your smile and your sweet
And gentle gestures
How you would deny you like me
And be confused
As confused as I am

You are my 1am thoughts.
Your sweet nothings
How you'd say you love me
And missed me
And how badly you want
My embrace

You are my 2am thoughts.
How it might be like
To spend a day
Or a night with you
Walk around and talk the whole time
About our pasts, presents and futures.

You are my 3am thoughts.
How would it feel to kiss your lips
Or hold your hand
Would it feel warm
As warm as the tender touch I feel
In my heart whenever I talk to you?

You are my 4am thoughts.
Nothing would be sweeter
Than thinking about
How it might feel to be wrapped
In your tight embrace.

You are my 5am thoughts.
How sleepy I am and yet
You keep running on my mind
Unstoppable. Smiling. Teasing.

And I always fall asleep thinking about you
Then see you in my dreams.
Spontaneous and free verse. Just wrote this now while thinking of someone.

So beautiful and so scary.
It makes you brave
And scares the hell out of you
It makes you admire its beauty
While you writhe in the pain
it brought you.
Such irony.
Love will always be love.

If you love me make it clear
Tell me your desires
Whisper words of passion
As you look into my eyes

If you love me make it clear
Wrap me in your arms
Kiss me with burning passion
As we close our eyes.
To the man who invaded my mind

Loving you is like forgetting
That roses grow with thorns.
For all you gave me is
the sweet scent of a love
that never grows cold.
I wish all relationships were happy.

The cloud whispers love to the mountain
As the mountain reaches for the sky
In an ardent longing
Painful and sweet.

To A Beautiful Flower
Dee Nov 2015
Beautiful flower, how are you?
You've been showered by the kisses of the morning dew
You are guided by the hand that holds the vast blue sky
But why oh why, am I hearing you sigh?

Serenaded by the whispers of bees and butterflies
Admired by the thick clouds moving up in the skies
You sleep under the branches of the sturdy tall tree
But why in your sadness you cry infinitely?

Oh true! Love passes by quickly without us noticing
And go with it the melodies we so often sing
But other butterflies are passing by, your tears you must wipe
Tomorrow you will wither, do not waste your life..
I wrote this for myself a year ago and I want to share it to all those who feel insufficient sometimes, just sometimes..

with the taste of whiskey
in your breath.

Does it matter?
If I stay or go..
Is my presence even noticed?
Does it make a difference
if I'm here or gone
Will you cry
if I'm lost?
Or will I slip away unnoticed
Like I always am
When I'm around you...

Waiting
Dee Apr 2016
I have waited for twenty four years
To finally meet you.
That I won't give you up for a single mistake
or the rush of impatience.
You will find me here
waiting for you
Loving you in silence
Loving you more.
I love you Daniel. :)

Woman, you are most beautiful when you are not conscious of it. When you are being so natural, unmindful of how others see you. It's when you have no plans of pleasing anyone else because your only goal is to be you today and to be better than yourself tomorrow.

You know woman, you must have gotten it all wrong. Beauty isn't exactly what the media tells you it is. It isn't really about the color of your skin, the shape of your face, the make up you use or the size of your jeans. It is much more than that. It is what is inside you-your thoughts and the value you place on yourself and others. Beauty is being true to who you are. For when you are true to yourself, you are being true to what God made you to be.

On the seventh day of Creation, God rested and admired what He created for six days. Lo and behold!All of them are beautiful!

If God made you, there is no way you can be ugly. You may be flawed but you are definitely beautiful!

You don't need to search for Love.

It has always been there,

inside of you...
Love yourself first.

OCEAN BLUE
Dee Oct 2015
Your still waves kissed the sand on midday
Then waves goodbye and the kiss;
Left an eternal memory.

And the first wave that kissed the shore that morning
The first wave that left
Imprinted on the sand a mark
That no other wave can erase

Oh first wave that kissed the shore that morning!
Oh first wave though you left;
Wherever you are in the ocean blue
The sand awaits you by the shore.

He said he loves me
He sees forever in my eyes
But he was too afraid
To jump into the void
And take a leap of faith

I knew I love him
And eagerly
I jumped into the void
All alone.

It wasn't enough that he loved me
And saw forever in my eyes
I knew right then
I have to rise up
Pick up what was broken

Forever is such a long time
To be spent with the wrong person.

When I met you,
I felt like a flower seduced by a butterfly
And our parting left me waiting
'Til I wither and die.

If I were not me
I will be a river
Moving on and on
Touching the world
Watching people
Hearing hearts
In silence
Before I become submerged
In the bigger reality of the ocean.

There you are with your flaws
And I still love you
I love you for every piece of who you are
Not just your smile or the fact
that you make me happier
I love every part of you
Even the sides that I don't understand
Or the corner that brings me to tears
And you should know
That I shall love you
Even if I'm afraid of the void
And i'm not sure if I have wings
To fly.

Feel the uneven beatings
It's singing your name
My first haiku. Not sure though! Please help me improve.

And she smiled
Like everything was right
But if somebody looked
Long enough
He would noticed
She lost the sparks in her eyes.

He captivated me with his words
I am a poet
And words are my weakness
His words were alluring
he made me believe
Because I am a poet
When I write or say something
it comes from the deepest
of my heart.
And he allured me with his words
Then I realized
Some people abuse poetry.
And it broke my heart
Because I learned to love him
And because I am a poet.

It's not the tiny little butterflies
Flying 'round inside my tummy
It's not the light that flashes
Whenever you smile at me

All those are physical
Passing and ephemeral

Love is when I love you
Even if I've seen
The darkness that you have within
And still my face lights up
Whenever you're around me.

Love is when I love you
Even when I've seen your flaws
And I'd still smile
Open my arms
And wrap you in my embrace

— The End —
