the best feeling
if not a sinister one
is when you see an enemy
and you show them they cant hurt you:
you smile.

this simple movement of muscles
can rip into them deeper than any words.
they want you to hurt
and you appear to be doing fine.

ultimate revenge
the act of smiling is not only defiant
to show them they dont control you
but they cant do anything about it,
which is another advantage.

i dont know about you,
and this may seem evil,
but i smile when i know
that you are hurting

because all the times that i was hurting
you stood by and smiled too.
i guess thats the "circle of life, mate"
to put you in a quote.
now its my turn.

so i will smile,
when you tweet about me
because i really dont care! whereas you
seem to be caught up over me

and that alone is good revenge
but showing that i have no sadness
is even better
so heres to you :)

maybe its just me
but do i see
a little sparkle in your eye
that makes my heart fly

when you catch my eye
do you wonder why
you get butterflies
because i feel them

when our hands accidentally brush
do you feel a rush
because you hold onto me
that little bit longer than you should be

maybe im just hoping
because im not really coping
i miss you
i love you

and i just want you to say it back again.

i reckon the best type of love is
the one that happens
with a simple hello out of the blue
innocent, insignificant, incredible

all of a sudden
youre talking all day
every day
telling each other everything

and you slowly realize
your walls are starting to come down
you start to trust again
something you didnt think was possible

it never occurred to you that
you would start to fall
because last time it happened
you hit the ground

youve already fallen for them
though you just didnt realize it
because you were still gluing yourself
back together

it seems they stole your heart
and they fixed it
they glued it together with words
and they arent planning on giving it back

keep it safe

more of a string of thoughts than a poem but hey... reading the first lines of each stanza is fun though :P

its okay when its bright
but they come at night
when there is no more light
to give me a fright

they haunt me.
they wont let me free
they won't let me be
there's no where to flee

they're near
they are loud enough to hear
under my bed or over here
filling me with fear

they are not real
they are something you feel
they are not physical

they are thoughts.

thoughts of the future
thoughts of how you will die
thoughts of thoughts you cannot even think of yet
thoughts that hold the only certainty in life

but they still come with the force of a fleet
just before you sleep
the kind of thoughts which are true and deep
they enter your mind with a silent creep

they wont go away
surrounding you as you lay
they are here to stay
those thoughts of certainty

we had plans to watch Moulin Rouge for months
to curl up on the sofa with sweet and salted popcorn
to listen to the songs which you thought summed up
everything we felt.

we had plans to have word wars together
all in the name of NaNoWriMo of course
to write and write until we both got fed up of
everything we'd created

we had plans to go wherever our hearts longed to be
i wanted to go back to my home, and you said you'd follow
not only for your career but so together we could grow up
everything we dreamed of

but now im sitting on the couch munching away on my own
wondering how many words you've done while im writing by myself
ive cancelled my plans to travel, i dont want to go alone
nothing seems right without you.

I regret not kissing you that night on the train
Now my heart is filled with pain
I regret calling you those names
but at least now i am done with your games
I regret not calling after you
now im sticking my heart back together with glue
I regret asking you to leave
but at least now i dont have to grieve
I regret losing you as a friend
I guess im alone 'till the bitter end

I regret the things i didnt do
but i will never regret meeting you.

"er" was the message i was sent
after i had poured my heart out
i didnt even know what "er" meant
it did however, strengthen my doubt

maybe im just worrying too much
or maybe my thoughts are true
we used to talk of our plans together and such
but now i hardly speak to you

somethings changed
youre different now
its like the old you has been rearranged
all i can think is why and how?

how could you go from caring and sweet
to ignoring me hours on end
its like youve pressed delete
you were supposed to be more than a friend

i guess what im trying to get across
is unless the old you plans to come back
please dont let our paths cross
my hearts already been filled with black
