Please lift me high
if I’m too shy to tell you
my feelings,
you’ll know.
I’ll hide behind my thousands of masks
quietly laughing and telling you jokes
because I’m afraid
that if I tell you one small thing
my masks will fall off
and one thing will lead to everything.
I may be unexpressed but I have a lot of things
to think about.

another little poem hope you people like!

More I look around better I feel about my life. People of my age seems so stuck, so unhappy while I decided to follow my dreams and make it my way.

I passed each challenges that life brings me while they choose the easy way.

I always keep smiling,  my head up and my heart open just to make sure I won't regret anything. And so far I am doing pretty well.

As long as i beleive that destiny as a great life to offer why should i not follow the signs?

For me the signs are "Feel free, be wild, don't worry everything will be alright, let's go on an adventure"

I just have to be a little careful because the days i get off track,  i feel bad until i get back on track and that can take some time...

Anyway, good thoughts : keep it easy.  Follow happy thoughts, happy people, love and share

i hope you never have to know
the depth of my devotion
because to know
would be to understand
the emptiness you left in me
when you had nothing
to give back
and surely such
guilt
would eat you alive
we matched on tinder today and i'm upset

And each morning as she slept
I'd take her a tray of poetry
A croissant of commas warmed from the inside out
An ounce of assonance
A cup of freshly squeezed couplets
A bowlful of rhymes
That inside she might find
Our promises of forever
The memories we crafted together:

I’d take her a teapot of
The little things we’d forget
In the busyness of daily life
I’d take her a knife to spread
across the toasts we’d host
To the moments we cherished most
To our victories and our regrets
And every morning as she slept
I’d place a kiss on her head
As I placed beside our bed
A tray of poetry,
The words she so carefully, cordially, candidly
Composed out of me.

Lie to me.
Tell me I will be ok
Tell me how beautiful I look
I just want you,
To lie to me.
Say that you will never give me up again
Say that I don't annoy you guys
Because maybe if someone told me this,
Even as a lie,
I would believe it
And fell fine
I think the best part of it was the almost.
We almost fell for each other.
We almost had everything together.
We almost were,
But we never were.
We were always just an almost.
My whole life,
I've been running,
I've been hiding,
I've been screaming,
Trying so hard to conceal my emotions

But with you by my side,
I can't do that anymore
All I can do is stop.
ugh should I stop?

On that Sunday morning I turned to the left side of the bed reaching to grab your hand but I found nothing but your absence reaching back grabbing my hand pulling me out of bed yet leaving my body there walking me through the empty rooms filled with your echo and scent that I breathe in and out while wandering still being held hostage by your absence it's like it's trying to show me something that's been hiding in the gaps you left in my heart and soul I can't sleep at night knowing I can't reach for your hand or comfort or kiss me goodbye before you leave I begged you please yet there was still nothing but empty bedsheets and broken promises in the kitchen and some lost dreams on the balcony
