Lost myself in the eyes of a stranger
Saw a reflection of a girl I once knew
Always falling into a misadventure
Confused, never knew what to do
He whispered and said "this was the old you and I'm glad I found her"
i know it’s not okay to be sad

but you don’t know anything about my past

you think i don’t miss the great times i've had?

great things are temporary, good things never last

don’t force me to talk, it’s bad enough already

it’s not easy to be happy

when those memories start creeping back in your head

you suddenly forget what happiness feels like… you just feel dead

and all you want to do is stay in bed
You're radiant in my eyes
Blue skies
Have nothing on you
You're feeling lonely
I am too
We could be feeling lonely together
In this gloomy weather
Fall asleep in bed
Listening to music together wishing we were dead
And face each other and smile
At least we have each other for a while
The only happiness I can feel
But it's okay, that's a friendship sealed
Everything else just makes me feel ill
Your presence  makes me feel healed
Yesterday everyone missed me
Today a few stayed and believed
Tomorrow no one will care to see
What I have become is nothing they want
I’m tired of being so blunt
They will never listen either way
My dreams are nothing but clouds of emptiness
In their eyes, I am hopeless
I don't blame them
I too, believe I have a problem
Days are nicer when I stay home
Nights are better when I am alone
But thoughts are worse when I am lonesome
And dreams are nicer when I am sharing them with someone
Talking is not fun, it’s always baffling
Laughing is starting to get a little tiring
Sleeping sometimes fails to keep my sanity
Reading affects my reality
Nothing is as easy as I like it to be
It all started with those late night invitations
Sometimes I like to think hurting me was not your intentions
Indecisive little minds, we got our tongue tied
Some day I will put the bad memories aside
He had that smile, the one that gets me shy
He never meant to act like the bad guy
Our kisses became my favorite little secret
I think it is okay, they turned me into an obscure poet
You will never have a clue
But I still enjoy writing poems about you
It is the way your gentle kisses touch my lips so soft and delicate
They keep me up all night but I do not mind if it gets a little late
As long as I am with you, your presence is what I appreciate
And this poem I dedicate
To the one who I believe to be my soul mate
Maybe you can relate?
Because baby, you were worth the wait
Now that you are mine, it is our future that I like to anticipate
Every second that I spend with you makes me feel so fortunate
I love how we have something meaningful
Because I really like you and I meant it all
That I will always be here for you even when you fall
I will give you my heart and soul
Now that we are together
My love for you will go on forever
When I met you
Something came out of the blue
I suddenly realized I was a romantic
And that made me a bit uneasy and frantic
This is not easy and I am scared
What if I lose everything we once shared?
Help me feel wanted and convince me that this love will not hurt
I have fallen slowly but surely into your majestic ways
Successfully wooing me throughout the winter days
I swoon from your manners
Those rosy cheeks are from my desires
Of us becoming one
You said "love is serious, but I can make it fun"
So I treasure every momentum of our sweaty bodies
Becoming secrets that will never make it into stories
Frankly I am becoming addicted to your mind, body, and soul
You're all I think of even when the days are dull
And I am not looking for a fairy tale
For that is for those who seek love so frail
I want reality where my heart can find hospitality
And we can both rest our thoughts in tranquility
You remind me of the days where I felt pain
You were in the alcohol running through my veins
The tears running down my face
My breath unstable in a fast pace
You remind me of the days where I felt happiness
Sharing warmth between our finger tips
Tasting every kiss from your lips
You remind of those days where I felt loneliness
My head was always a mess
Staying in bed reading poems written about you
Wishing I was laying next you, but you never had a clue

— The End —
