Self-Confidence
Elizabeth Jones Feb 2016
Look beyond what you see in the mirror
There is no need to fear
For I what I see here
Matters more than what you see there
Take a deep breath in
And concentrate on what’s within
Take a deep breath in
And make sure to grin
Because what I see here
Is something beautiful.

Out of Ideas
Elizabeth Jones Dec 2016
Blank notebook,
Pencil ready.
Out of ideas when I sit down to write.
But while I lie in bed,
My imagination runs wild.
The perfect fairy tale,
Where the princess saves the prince
Is ready to be written.
But there is no pencil ready,
No notebook for me
To write my thoughts down.

Catch Me...
Elizabeth Jones Dec 2016
Can you stop being so perfect?
Your laugh,
Your smile,
Your sense of humor
The way you try to tease me,
And the way we get into pointless arguments is perfect.
The way you ask me for help.
You're great at sports,
Your grades are good,
And you remind me of the good times.
So can you just stop it?
Stop being so perfect because I'm falling and I'm not sure if you're going to catch me...

Will you catch me when I'm falling?
Falling down, or falling in love...

Catch me...
Because I'm falling for you.

— The End —
