I let her
open a bottle that was so clearly supposed to be closed
I let her
crawl inside and lick up what I left behind
I let her
experience the pain and the sting of a mistake I was lucky enough to postpone
I let her
find her way back out as tears brimmed her stolen eyes
I let her
risk the chance of shedding blood and ripping clothes
I let her
do the who and what I knew was wrong inside
Cosmic Haiku
Suns explode spit out
the building blocks of mankind -    
solar sacrifice

Gravity acts on
all solar objects in space -
balance of the earth

Man looks at the stars
admires their sublime beauty -
memory of birth

Black hole swallows whole -
stars meet the oblivion
greet death as all do

Past is bedrock and cannot be change.
It is foundation of present.

Present is a current adventure.
Perfect for planning a future.

Future is so bright hope for people.
A wishful path which is unknown.

Everyone had a bad memories.
Do they wish to die or to live?

Everyone wakes up for tomorrow.
Are they strong enough or fragile?

Mystery where no one knows.
Twisted fate of life is in our hands.
Its about time we have.

Two separate clouds
Two different worlds
Drifting together under one sky
A joyful greeting
A soft hello
A gentle smile
And sweet goodbye that said,
So good to see you... my friend.
Everyday was pleasant
Same joyful greeting
Same soft hello
Same gentle smile
Same sweet goodbye
Soon the skies began to turn
It happened over time
Enjoyed your company
And you enjoyed mine
Laughter, we shared joyful laughter
Tears, we cried beautiful tears
Stories, we shared painful stories
Singing, exploring a God given gift
Two separate clouds
Two different worlds
Growing to know me
I grew to know you
Sharing so much
Perhaps too little
Confiding in me
And I you
Two separate clouds
Two different worlds
Skies began to darken
Clouds soon clashed
Producing  painful lightening
Severing two clouds in half
You'd never be the same
You lost all hope in me
You'd never trust
me the same
A tear falls from heaven
I am to blame my Lord
I allowed Satan to have control over me
I lift this parting cloud up in my prayers
Let not these words fall onto the page with no meaning
Let these words reach the heart of this parting cloud
I am so very sorry...
Two separate clouds
Two different worlds
Satisfied

I love your hair when you've just woken up.
I love your tired voice.
I love when you're kissing me and we start laughing.
I love the way just touching you skin to skin makes me feel home.
I love the faces you make in photos.
I love how many different shades of green your eyes are.
I love how you can never stay awake through a movie, but you'll say you're paying attention if I ask.
I love that you throw things when you're frustrated, cause it means you let it out and don't let it hurt you inside. Broken things can be fixed. Broken people are much harder to resolve.
I love when you sing along to your favorite songs and send me videos.
I love your writing.
I love that when you're drunk, all you want is me.
I love that when I kiss you it feels like we can't live without each other.
I love how truly, truly kind you are.
I love your colorful swear words.
I love taking care of you.
I love how you are always there for me.
I love holding your hand.
I love your integrity and how much you want to reach your goals.
I love your courage. You're so brave, and I don't even know if you realize.
I love that I always know when you're done sneezing, cause you only say "choo!" on the very last one.
I love that we say good night every night.
I love staying in bed with you ALL day.
I love when you make your inner monologue outer and I can hear all your beautiful, funny, brilliant thoughts.
I love that you don't let anyone treat you badly.
I love how much you love your dog.
I love your hands.
I love the way your neck smells.
I love falling asleep in your arms.
I love all the accents you do.
I love that curl that always goes inside out.
I love that you can make me laugh until I cry.
I love how much I want you, all the time.
I love that you have a cardboard cutout of that guy (Niall, as you told me vehemently) from one direction.
I love planning a life with you, and laughing and joking about naming our kids odd things, but knowing that underneath we are really going to have a life together.
I love that the only tears I ever shed over you are tears of love, laughter, and joy.
I love that you kept the rose I gave you on our first date.
I love how much I trust you.
I love that you love all the things about me I was worried nobody would ever love.
I love that you want to talk to me all the time the same way I want to talk to you all the time...
But most of all
I just love you. Always.

Valentines Day 2016
To the girl who proved that every unloveable part of me, isn't. To the girl I want to spend my life with.
I sent these to her one by one yesterday, and then I made them all into this poem.
