I see you everywhere.
I see you in the sky-
As a big plump, curious cloud.
I see you in the ocean-
Along with the dolphins and the sunset.
I see you in the mountains-
Because you loved them so much.
I see you in the night sky-
For you are now one of the stars.
I see you in the meadow-
Because the flowers remind me of your colorful eyes.
But most importantly,
I see you in myself-
And I would not care to be anyone else.

I.
a shining city,
rich with a tangible pleasures
and docile smiles

II.
skyscrapers gleaming;
invisible almost ‘til
somebody leaps off

III.
concrete streets over
flowing with cigarette butts
where flowers should be

IV.
inhale the poison;
breathe deep venomous air where
oxygen should be

V.
live one life here
for you are so near the end;
so close to freedom
The first time I saw you smile,
It was like a punch in the face that sent me spinning into euphoria.
Time stopped.
A crowded room,
mind clouded with *****,
**** and,
*******.
And I saw your smile,
like a sailor lost on a dark sea, first lays eyes on light from land.
I imagine nothing short of a
lightning strike,
could near compare to the shock my system was rendered,
by the subtle lifting of your lips.
The first time I saw your smile,
was the first time
I knew love.
i'm gonna write a poem,
and i'm gonna call it
Untitled
because that is what it is.
Kind of like the way we were,
untitled.
We were nonchalant and no big deal,
and i guess you expected it to be the same
when you left.
but it's not.
Now we know why I need
a title.

When you get mad
that scares me
your breathes becomes ragged
your hands ball up in angry fists
and your voice because loud
in a horrible way
but when you are happy
the corners of your eyes wrinkle
in a big smile
those blue oceans showing true joy
and you make me feel like
I could never live without you in my life
that scares me also.
  *i.c.d
You expect me to be there for you as a close friend
You told me you loved this guy, and hoped he loved you too
But he did not, and your little heart was broken
you came to me, looking for consolation
As if I'm supposed to make you feel better
I can empathize with you for one reason
You broke my heart and didn't give a ****.
Now for you.... I'm supposed to give a ****?
Sorry but thats not how this works
You feel nothing making me feel horrible
Yet, I am supposed to feel something when you feel horrible
You act like I am a child that doesnt know anything
Yet you will never be loved,
because you are a child that doesnt know anything.
I'm not one to live my life in passion.
But like the spark of a flame,
you make me feel ashen.
A night in the dreamland,
keeps me lost in confusion.
Given the choice I would have spared my youth and,
amongst others, why were you there?
Intruding on dreams is slightly unfair.
My words pound your pages,
And my tears stain the ink,
But you take it.
My emotions overwhelm me,
And my mind suffocates my lungs,
But you take it.
When I was doubled-over crying,
Lying on the ground,
Tears soaked up by the carpet,
You listened without question.
Bullets from my ballpoint pen buffet you,
But you are bullet proof.
Through sickness and in health,
For better or for worse,
You are always there.
The wall flower in the back of the party,
Taking everything in without a comment.
Page after page of recorded pain,
And day after day of depressed thoughts,
You take it.
The only person ever there for me is you.
My most loyal companion,
My journal.
I write about love,
I write about my mother,
I write about the early years,
The flowers and the valentines,
I write about your smile,
Pretend it is something heaven sent,
That your skin held all my secrets,
and that we asked for nothing in return,
I write if nothing to be honest,
For my pen holds every truth I know,
Remember this when you choose to forget,
For I do not know how
So many I's and not enough You's
