they always said:
"what goes around comes around".
at first i thought i was getting what i deserved,
i did something so vile
therefore i was treated the same in return.

what i didn't know was that it was true.
what you put out into the world
will come back to you.

choose love.
choose kindness.
but most importantly,
choose you when you need.

love is...

love is a complicated puzzle
that takes intricate pieces to fit together
to make a beautiful picture
with just the right light and darkness.

love is waking up to the sun shining through the window
creating shadows across the soft skin of your face.

love is sitting by the fire
curling up together to keep warm on the cool autumn night watching and counting the stars.

love is picking flowers from the garden
counting the they love me, they love me not’s
hoping that it ends on they love me.

love is feeling the cool breeze on a
hot summer day
loving the cooling feeling of the wind
after the day of adventure in the stifling heat.

love is the sun hiding away in the night using its light to highlight the beauty’s of the moon. the stars adding to the light putting on a light show for the two of us.

love is never easy, having to find the one that fits perfectly with you.
sometimes not realizing until it’s
too little, too late.

love is always beautiful compelling stories
of the different kinds of love
all with different measures and backgrounds.

love is special, unique, amazing.
love is worth it.

desperate

i need to see you,
i need to hug you,
i need to hold you,
i need you to remind me why i’m alive,
i need you to give me reason again.

i’m desperate and all i need is you.

they say it's so

the moon has heard my words,
carefully picked to describe each and every beauty of yours.

the stars have been used for counting,
every single reason why i think that you belong here.
holding so much meaning, and you’d never know.

the galaxies have heard my hurt,
quiet sobs heard by those who are out there listening.
hearing just how much i long to be with you again.

the oceans have envied me,
having my eyes leak more tears of missing you than all the water of the seven seas.

the papers have held my words,
written to you just how we used to.
holding everything we wanted to say but couldn’t.

the poems have held my feelings,
sitting in my drafts waited to be read by others and for them to know.

my darling we're forever
because they all say it's so.

my love

the moon to the sun,
the sun using its light to capture the beauty within the moon.

the waves to the sand,
the waves rolling through the sea but slightly brushing the sand, carefully.

the breeze to the trees,
shaking its branches and blowing the leaves ever so gently.

the stars to the galaxy,
tiny in size but the amount of them all collectively shining, beautiful.

the milk to the cookies,
one without the other doesn’t fit right, even santa knows.

my love without you,
minuscule and obsolete, never truly reaching its greatness and feeling complete.

somewhere between seen and not

you ever get that feeling
that you're not seen,
but you aren't completely invisible?

like they pay enough attention
to notice when you're gone,
but not enough to really care.

you're somewhere between being seen
and being invisible.
