Love is just a word.
Elizabeth Oct 2017
A kiss just a kiss until you
   Find the one you love,
A hug is just a hug until
you find the one you're
   always thinking of.

A dream is just a dream
   Until it comes true,

Love was just a word until
   they day I met you.

If you Really Knew Me
Elizabeth Oct 2017
If you really knew me, I love music. I can’t live without it, and if you really knew me, you’d know I have a little sister, a half-brother, and a half-sister. If you really knew me, you’d know that I am not Asian, I am Hispanic. If you really knew me I am not mean or quiet. If you really knew me I am nice and loud. If you really knew me I love to read but when I am alone. If you really knew me I like science because I like to learn about space and the planets.If you really me I love to draw when I am sad or mad. If you really knew me I try to smile every day even if wanna break down and cry. If you really knew me my life isn't as perfect as most people think it is. If you really knew me  I trust no one. If you knew me that I don't show emotion I keep it to myself. If you really knew me I love to read poems that are about love, happy, to love one another, to be a true friend when I feel alone sad, mad, happy. If you really knew me I am a cold person and I get that from my dad. If you really knew me I love to write poetry it can be random or about me. if you really knew me you would know that I have been depressed and cried alone. if you really knew me you would know that I hated how I look. if you really knew me you would know I always feel like a failure. if you really knew me you would know that I thought about ending it but. if you really knew me you would know that today I am saved by the grace of God. if you really knew me. you could see that I am a different person than I used to be. If you really knew me I love helping people. If you really knew me I love kids. If you really knew me I respect all girls and boys how they feel and what they talk. If you really knew me I  don’t judge people. If you really knew me.

Sweet love
Elizabeth Oct 2017
I miss your smile, I miss your voice
If I got to see you, I would rejoice
I miss your lips, I miss your kiss
The way it makes, my life full of bliss
I miss your face, I miss your eyes
I hated when we, exchanged goodbyes  
I miss you now, I missed you before
Please come back, my heart is sore.

The last time
Elizabeth Sep 2018
From the moment you hold your baby's arms,
you will never be the same.
You might long for the person you were before,
When you had freedom and time,
And nothing, in particular, to worry about.
You will know tiredness like you never knew it before,
And days will run into days that are exactly the same,
Pull of feeding and burping,
***** changes and crying,
whining and fighting,
Naps or a lack of naps,
It might seem like a never-ending cycle.

As long as you love me
Elizabeth Oct 2017
As long as you love me
I'll stay by your side
I'll be your companion
Yor friend and your guide

As long as you love me
As long as you care
I'll do anything for you
I'll go anywhere

    I'll bring you the sunshine
    I'll comfort your fears
    I'll gather up rainbows

    As long as forever
    My love will be true
     For as long as you love me
           I'll only love you.

Hiding
Elizabeth Oct 2017
If you looked in the corners,
You'd find her right there,
Hidden by darkness,
And the curls in her hair,
Her nose in a book,
With her head in the clouds,
Hidden her feelings,
Away from the crowds,
If you sat by her side,
While the world passed you by,
She'd tell you the story,
Behind the pain in her eyes,
If you gave her five minutes,
You'd see how her smile,
Makes even the bad things
In life seem worthwhile,
But you don't look in corners,
You don't even glance,
So she sits there still waiting,
To be given a chance.
Elizabeth Jan 2018
One day an 11-year-old girl asked her daddy, " What are you doing to get me for my 15th birthday?" The father replied, " There is much time left." When the girl was 14 she fainted and was rushed to the hospital. The doctor came out and told her dad she had a bad heart. When she was lying in the hospital bed she said: "Daddy, have they told you I'm going to die yet?" The father replied yes as he left weeping. She said, " How can you be sure." He turned around from the door and said" "I know". She turns 15 when she is recovering and comes home to find a letter on her bed. It says " My dearest Daughter, if you are reading this it means all went well as I told you. One day you asked me what I was giving you for your 15th birthday, I didn't know then but now my present to you is MY HEART." Her father donated his heart.

Beautiful
Elizabeth Oct 2017
Don't know how it is You looked at me
And saw the person that I could be
Awakening my heart, breaking through the dark--suddenly Your grace

Like sunlight burning at midnight
Making my life something so
Beautiful, beautiful
Mercy reaching to save me
All that I need; You are so
Beautiful, beautiful

Now there's a joy inside I can't contain
But even perfect days can end in rain
And though it's pouring down, I see You through the clouds shining on my face

Like sunlight burning at midnight
Making my life something so
Beautiful, beautiful
Mercy reaching to save me
All that I need; You are so
Beautiful, beautiful

I have come undone
But I have just begun
Changing by Your grace

Like sunlight burning at midnight
Making my life something so
Beautiful, beautiful
Mercy reaching to save me
All that I need; You are so
Beautiful

Like sunlight burning at midnight
Making my life something so
Beautiful, beautiful
Mercy reaching to save me
All that I need; You are so
Beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful

Sad Story
Elizabeth Jan 2018
A girl wanted a ring. But the boy gave a teddy bear instead. In anger, the girl threw the bear on the road. The boy wants to take it back but he was hit by a coming car and died. At his funeral, the girl hugged the bear and the machine in it spoke: Will you marry me? Guess what he found a ring inside it.

Growing Old Together
Elizabeth Oct 2017
The melding of two bodies,
The surging of two souls;
love between the two of us
keeps us from growing old.

It was on the day we married,
The day we said I do;
It was then I made you mine,
The proof that I loved you.

Now the years are passing
And we can hardly see,
where one of us begins
or the other person ends.

Growing old together,
what a special way to age.
together we have grown
like oregano and sage.

Raw With Love
Elizabeth Oct 2017
little dark girl with
kind eyes
when it comes time to
use the knife
I won't flinch and
I won't blame
you,
as I drive along the shore alone
as the palms wave,
the ugly heavy palms,
as the living does not arrive
as the dead do not leave,
I won't blame you,
instead
I will remember the kisses
our lips raw with love
and how you gave me
everything you had
and how I
offered you what was left of
me,
and I will remember your small room
the feel of you
the light in the window
your records
your books
our morning coffee
our noons our nights
our bodies spilled together
sleeping
the tiny flowing currents
immediate and forever
your leg my leg
your arm my arm
your smile and the warmth
of you
who made me laugh
again.
little dark girl with kind eyes
you have no
knife. the knife is
mine and I won't use it
yet.

You make me
Elizabeth Oct 2017
You make me laugh when I want to cry,
Make me live when I want to die,
Make me smile when I want to frown,
You turn my life upside down.
  Believe in me when no one else does
  You're my now, my is, my was.
when you call my name I begin to blush,
I'm afraid people notice I need you so much.
  When I'm with you time flies by fast.
   It's like the present is the past.
I need you more than you can believe,
Love you more than you can conceive.
Think about you every night and day
  And hope my life can stay this way
  I don't want it to be any other way.

Judge me
Elizabeth Nov 2017
Judge me and I'll prove you wrong.
Tell me what to do and I'll tell you off.
Say I'm not worth it and watch where I end up.
Call me a Bicth and I'll show you one.
***** me over and I'll do it to you twice as bad.
Call me crazy but really you have no idea.

Love is hard
Elizabeth Nov 2017
I think the hardest part about falling in love is that you no longer have control your own emotions. one word, one look could change your entire day, whether it be good or bad. someone has the ability to get inside your head, learn everything about you but it's never guaranteed that they're going to stick around. But I think the worst part is that you don't even have control over falling in love. it just happens, even if you want it to. it'll either break your heart or more awful truth of it all is that we all die at some point, with or without them.

I miss you
Elizabeth Oct 2017
I miss you more than
   I thought I would,
And I cried much more
Then I thought I could.
       Time heals all...
That's what they say!
    But love's the price
        And so I pay.
Sometimes I smile
I know you're near
   It's not enough
   You are not here.
    The years roll by
     I'm not the same
     Yet in my heart
      You still remain.
   You left love behind
When you flew away
     But a piece of me
     You too that day.

Passion
Elizabeth Oct 2017
Passion makes us stronger than we are.
Love makes us better than we are. Be passionate about the things you love. I have a desire for every inch of you.
The smell of your breath on my needing lips,
The taste of you under the covers, and your voice rummaging
through every vein in my body.

Do I love myself
Elizabeth Oct 2017
Love myself I do. Not everything, but I love the good as well as the bad. I love my crazy lifestyle, and I love my hard discipline. I love my freedom of speech and the way my eyes get dark when I'm tired. I love that I have learned to trust people with my heart, even if it will get broken. I am proud of everything that I am and will become.

Never say I love you
                   If you really don't care
Never talk about feelings
             If they aren't really there
Never hold my hand
      If you are gonna break my heart
Never say you are going to
            If you don;t plan to start
never look into my eyes
                    if all you do is lie
            Never say hi
If you really mean goodbye
If you really mean forever
                   Then say you will try
Never say forever
  Cuz forever makes me cry................

love
Elizabeth Oct 2017
I didn't fall in love with you
I walked into love with you
with my eyes wide open,
choosing to take
every step along the way
I do believe in fate and destiny,
but I also believe
we are only fated to do the things
that we'd choose anyway.
And I'd choose you in a hundred lifetimes,
in a hundred worlds,
in any version of reality, I'd find you
and I'd choose you.

Passion love
Elizabeth Oct 2017
I wanted him the bluntest way.I
wanted his lips, his hands, his arms. I
wanted him the way the ocean wants the shore, constantly reaching and running back. I wanted him the way rain wants to fall, the way to be read.I wanted him to infinity, to the millionth degree, no amount
of rain could douse the fir I had in me for him.

let me go one day
Elizabeth Mar 2018
Let me go one day
without looking at you, please.
Let me sleep one night
without the memories.
Let me stray from the dreams
that fail to make me happy.
And let me continue this alone.
Let me drown myself
in these tears you caused.
Let me stab my own self in the back
with these broken shards from my heart.
Let me shock myself
with all of the energy, I wasted.
Let me lose myself
in the darkness of my mind.
Let me melt
from the heat of my anger.
Let me freeze
from the coldness of your heart.
Then let me rip your heart to pieces
and destroy who I thought you were.
Then let me ask if we can still be friends.

Because he thinks just of him no one else he doesn't care about you pleases girls listen a **** boy is going to hurt you a lot and then you're going to say why did I get in this.

Let the rain kiss you.
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops.
Let the rain sing you a lullaby.

The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk.
The rain makes running pools in the gutter.
The rain plays a little sleep-song on our roof at night—

And I love the rain.

In such a way I love myself, that his life does not skimp
Until the end he gave himself and to death was because the master
In such a way I love myself and there is no way I can pay
The price of your great love but my whole soul I want to give.


For your love I will live, of your love, I will sing
With my Jesus, I will walk because I love myself
For your love I will live, of your love, I will sing
With my Jesus, I will walk because he died for me
I will follow.

In such a way I love that his life does not skimp
Until the end he gave himself and to death was because the master
In such a way I love myself and there is no way I can pay
The price of your great love but all my soul I want to give.

I smoke **** just like you.
Money gives me greed just like you.
******* makes me wonder just like you.
My parents kicked me out when I was 17 just like you.
I died inside when I turned 13 just like you.
I saw life for what it was a 7 just like you.
I want to die every day just like you.
I think about killing myself just like you.
I don't like money just like you.
I love the moon just like you.
I love the idea of love just like you.
Most important I'm not alone, just like you.

Bully
Elizabeth Jan 2019
If you ask me about my past I'll tell you it wasn't pretty
I was bullied and called things
I was always pushed around
Told to jump off a cliff
And to those people who said I'm not good enough to be here
I got one thing to say
I'm still here and stronger than ever
If you ask me I'll tell you
that I'm the girl that
Was body shamed by her father
I'm the one that stopped eating
because she was as fat as a rhino
But guess what
i'm still here and stronger than ever
If you ask me about my past I'll tell you that it wasn’t pretty
I was the bully at school I know that sounds wrong but that was me
I wish I wasn’t but I had no choice
I wanted these people to feel what I did
how they hurt me
how I almost ended my life because of them
I would always make fun of them body shamed them
judge them treat them like they were nothing
I felt happy seeing them crying and doing nothing back
I thought I was cool doing that but it was not
One day this girl came to me and said have you seen yourself you need to
After that she was bullying me
body shaming saying I was ugly that no one will never want you fat monkey,
after that I would always keep my emotions to myself
If you asked me about my past I'll tell you it was not pretty
I was bullied at home and at school
I was told i was not going to amount to anything and there were no point of dreaming
I was always the new kid
No matter where you go you have someone  there to bring me down
I have been to 8 different schools and seen multiple different types of bullying
In thoughts 8 schools i realize the person who are doing the bullying have been bullied
There are more than 3.2million students every year that have been bullied
1 out of 10 people drop out because of bullying
74% out of 100 are boy that are bullying
As bullying has increased the amount of suicides have increased
Don’t let this keep going

For your love is more delightful than wine.

My heart will go on and on until you come back. I give you everything so you give me everything. You took my breath away so come back because where you go I go where you stay I stay where you move I move, I will follow you. And in the end is him and I.
