Her hand in mine, fingers interlocking in a position that seems so natural to us now. In the heat of summer they stick, our palms sticky from sweat as the sun beats down. But I don't mind, as long as her hand is in mine.

Her smile as she laughs at one of my stupid jokes, and I smile back. My arm round her waist as we cuddle up in the warmth of my bed, outside the trees turn all shades of autumn and slowly deposit leaves onto my driveway. But it's okay, as long as next to me she lays.

Her cheeks, rosy from the cool of the air as we lay together under the stars. I gently wrap my scarf around her neck, shivering a little at my own loss of warmth. But I don't care, as long as it is my clothes she wears.

Her eyes, fluttering peacefully as she naps next to me. It has been months apart, so much lost time for us to make up. She shifts, sleepily curling up against my body. My arm is crooked at an angle so I can play with her hair. But I don't mind, as long as she is just fine.
i dont show it often enough but she means the world to me. whatever i have to do, i dont mind as long as she is happy
sometimes I don't like being a loner
but I guess its better than being a stoner
I am caught in mellow drama
kids these days hooked on marijuana
I will not smoke *** with you
but I will read you pride and prejudice
I like my books better than oxycontin
My Clarry and Jace more than your straight ***** and chase  
I like books more than people
reading is my choice drug
while yours starts bringing you down
on your addiction is frowned
mine is making me looked up to
yes I am a loner
my walls build from Stephen kings
my heads not clouded with weirs the ****
no I guess I am not a stoner
but fictional people are better than real ones
I wont **** for a too finger bag
but touch my paper back and ill have your ***
Cloistered in ones circuit cell,
unable to escape convenient hell,
and extol the extracted things,
that burned of origami flightless birds,
to betray with malice the offered tongue,
yet no fair play so none have won.
We never,
          had to live a life of pain and suffering,
                        it came with the glory of a perfect day,
                                we sipped of anger and amused ourselves with pride
                          we forgot that life would torment the,  
          ones with content, even if we never really,
 deserved it.
Prolong the tampered metal, polished clean with ragged cloth,
                                                                             pure innocence and dignity,
                                                                                 appear the gale to mock,
                                                      yet with no envious remark, would commence a shining stone,
                                                                         that engraved itself with gold,
                                                                               and a sore for opals glow.
                                                                    Crammed deep between the coal,
                                                                              and a wall in echoed black,
                        when beauty is your character no light deceives the crack,
                                                where you pounce upon your chance to be broken free of chains
                                                                        it ignited the worth of igneous,
                                                                      and the vein of diamonds beige.
                                     Given greater shadows,
brings a fear to compensate,
                                                   to mold to granite silver creates a follower,                  
                                                                                              a fake,
                                                                          appear from collapse of canons,
                                                                                the extremity unknown,
                                                                                          the realist
                                                               and the pessimist shall only know the truth,
                                                                               a gem is worth the size,
                                                                         a rock is known the pleasure,
                                              what is thought to be color could be layers from and measured
all to do with withering
of weathers time and age,
one pebble takes the time to reform in bountiful new age,
sand, glass,
shells, chains,
boulders, pebbles,
  warrior, pilgrim, page
    loving, dreading, hating, fear
     grownups, life
not one stone appears overnight
  You may become more proud,
than passion,
or never lie your head to ground
but rich, famous, poor, or dead
accomplishments,
   lie in your head
Roar goes the waves on a hot summer day,
calm as the breeze that floats away,
I splash in and out as the current floats by my eyes,
and I feel the movement of things passing by,
I swim very fast to the oceans deep scares to the kind open place of the corals deep lairs,
My heart starts to calm as I reach my sweet home,
where the Dolphinians roam.
In the place where all of the coral reef's cage.
And the waters release there unbeatable rage.
Where none can be saved from the depth of the gloom no Dolphinians light can revive the dead's rule,
all around movements scarce,
no sense of life will share a glance,
no feeling of free is a choice in this sea the home of the Dolphinians is no place to be,
since it happens to be in my fantasy.
Diselent people,
do not cover your tracks,
they will follow you
I will find you
but don't fear, I will not hurt you,
I will make you feel regret for demining, another's sadness to shreds,
When shames shadow is upon you,
I will not feed off of the glory, that I may receive
I will just glow,
and lead the way for the ones that your pathetic, shadow of a soulful smirk has crossed
And while no one has come out from hiding to follow my purity,
I shall walk on
when you carry the weight of the joy you receive,
from killing mindless people that you consider worthless,
they will not stab you, but others who have touched the glow of me shall walk and carry wisp to wisp,
which is power,
but of a thoughtful, mind-persuading, convenience,
no more,
but bring the wrappings, of now wanders to destinations,
the real kind of destination, the one you earn, from no longer candy mountain, but real joy,
you don't have to pretend,
they don't have to look at your needy face,
dont beg for respect earn it, give it, understand it,
don't stare at it, you don't even deserve that,
I will leave not because I respect your face and eyes,
but because I cannot bring myself,
low enough to respect your character,
and I will not spend my time fixing something that breaks itself
I will not spend my time fixing what lies behind us,
I will not fix my shadow
It’s my past
I know it's there
don't tell me
we’ve all got one
at least I’ve learned to live with it
Every time she talks it's like a sassy one eyed glare,
mocking my maleficence with those who are more fair,
he stares at her with wonder as I stare at him in vain,
disappointed with his choice when he is made for one true Dane,
a girl with beauty pure and sweet both inside and Deseret,
of a women put on earth to elope his dreary need.
