I only cry to keep my heart watered,
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Silence gives me too much time to think of you,
That is why I talk to myself
Your love is the dance in my heart
that keeps my blood moving.
It is the fluttering of a thousand
excited butterflies in my stomach.
The sparkle on the water at sunset
which rests in my eyes
when they fall on you.

While I'm with you
I could never be too hot or too cold.
Nothing is more just right.

It is a love even cinema envies.
The song you play for my soul
is the one that I could never
sing alone.
Thank you for your love. Comments and criticism are always appreciated.

The hills roll over and over creating dimples within the earth where tears flow down to my heart,
the mountains are just an excuse for a blanket,
I draw my heart from the trees,
timid under the circumstances,
We trade hearts and you walk away,
your heart now hid away among the trees,
my heart hopefully hidden away from danger,
until we meet again

dinosaurs roamed the earth once,
nearly a million years of life for them,
I wonder if humans can last that long,
or are we just a insufficient species just occupying the world until God can make a better,
more advanced species that can save it

My love is for someone who does not exist,
but I will hope and save it for them,
undisturbed,
And maybe I won't need to choose my second choice.

I planted this flower because it was the only thing that didn't leave me.
