please believe me when i say
that you are not unwanted.
please believe me when i say
that you are not unloved.

you are an incredible creation,
spun delicately by the deft fingers of fate;
made with the sole purpose of setting
every corner of the world
on fire.

please believe me when i say
that you are not unwanted.
please believe me when i say
that you are not unloved.

you are as crucial to the earth as
even the slightest streams are to oceans;
as breezes are to the early springtime air -
sending dandelion puffs whirling hand-in-hand
with wishes sent into being from beneath
tightly shut eyes.

"I love you"

Words that make me soar,

Though I know they aren't true

I respond untruthfully with an

"I love you too"

No one ever understood me...Or you...we seemed to stand out like a wild fire...We had to rely on each other...Our friendship was everything I held dear...And when I fell in love with you I thought it'd all come to an end...But it didn't...Because you were different...That's what I loved most...You've been gone so long now...and still as I lie awake at night thoughts of you continue to consume my mind...Our memories...All our good times and the bad ones....And suddenly I find myself craving your presence...But it's been so long now I fear you'll never return to me...So all I can do Is dream...Dream of you and I together like we once were....

My apologies my dearest love,
I know I am not the prettiest,
I know I am not the smartest,
I know I am not athletic,
Nor am I comical,
But my darling love,
You have to see,
I will give you love even if you give hate,
I will kiss you on demand,
I will hug you even as you turn away,
I will hold your hand when you are afraid,
But my apologies my darling heart breaker,
I am sorry that I have love to give that you do not want,
I am sorry things have changed and your feelings are not the same,
My dearest love,
My darling hearty breaker,
My apologies.


(For all that I feel and all that I give.)

There are moments..
small
silent
moments

when I remember...
dark
painful
memories

full of tears...
warm
wet
tears

that gently fall...
like
summer
rain

on the sand...

and my heart...
bruised
battered
broken

beats like thunder...
pounding
rolling
thunder

and my skin...
burns
aches
screams

for your touch...
warm
tender
touch

that is gone...
