I see you all over my walls.
Covering any empty space that I am afraid to leave bare
I wonder If the same goes for my heart.
Kaleb Grimes Feb 2016
When I find myself afraid of what is to come
I lay in the grass and soak in the sun
What happens if I die before I get to live?
I pray for one more day that God will surely give
As I lay I begin to feel my spirits arouse
When I focus on the great allurement of the clouds
I am amazed by what Beauty I see as I lay
Why worry about the future when I can watch the clouds today?

My perfect sky is like the eyes of a old, wise man,
With a pale blue outline that deepens as one looks more to the center.
It has puffs of whites where one is left wondering what is behind them
Puffs of white that make you wonder if there is more to them than just their color.
My perfect sky demands to be looked into.
My perfect sky is beautiful.
Honestly, I just hope someone can understand the connection I see here. Thanks for taking the time to read it!

Love isn’s hard.
Love becomes hard when it isn’t allowed to be spread.
Love becomes hard when it doesn’t get to rest.
Love becomes hard when it has to be held to a specific standard.
Love becomes hard when it is left to itself.
From my experience love is easy.
It spreads peace throughout my hectic life.
It tells me rest when I put too much work on myself.
It allows me to share my opinions when society tells me to accept others’.
It lays with me when I feel all alone in the midst of this fast paced life.
Yes, my love is easy. My love is mine.
What inspired me to write this was a poem actually by Petrarch. His expression of love being so hard for him really made me think about the love of my life. If you have any comments or suggestions please tell me. I am very very new to poetry so I need all the help I can get. Thank you!

It wasn't at first sight.
No, it came much later for me.
The moment I fell in love with you came with much time.
But when I did, I fell flat on my face.
It didn't just sneak into my heart.
In one moment every definition and rumor I had heard of loving feeling like engulfed me like a flame.
From then on, I noticed that your smile was highly contagious.
I began to view your little quirks as precious little parts of you.
It’s extremely tough to tell you how I feel.
All I can tell you is this:
If loving you is anything different from what I feel when I watch you drift into sleep, I don't think I shall ever experience it.
You bring me bright laughter in my darkest moments,
a colorful day in my bland week,
and an engaging conversation when my stress stiffens my words.
For that I thank you My Dear.
I just wanted to try to explain to you how I feel.
I really need help with this. I would love to eventually give this to the one I wrote it about. If you have any suggestions please feel free to tell me. I am very new to this
