It storms as if

Mother Nature

Knows, Feels, Expresses

My own feelings

Drowning in tears

That fall, like raindrops

Hitting the earth. Causing only

Sadness with the numbing grief

Thunder booms, as loud as I

Cry out. As If, in competition of

Suffering or Pain

Lightning flashes, and all goes dark. And I

Do nothing but wait.

Wait to be struck, brought back

By life and Mother Nature's Wrath

you
Wish I could tell you what's on my mind
But there are things I just cannot say
That through it all you are one of a kind
Or that you always brighten up my day
Your smile bright makes me go weak
Your eyes gleaming like the moon in the sky
When we talk I hardly find the words to speak
There is not doubt you are my perfect guy
The one that always makes me feel complete
With your touch, what more can I desire
These words I wish I could tell you and more
And how you can make my heart soar

My sanity comes in doses
Small capsules
Confined within a capped bottle
Until it's opened
And is all spilled out
Katie Lawrence Jan 2014
You think you got the best of me
You think you tore me down
But what your eyes fail to see
There are no tears for me to drown
Why do I keep defending you
For all those things you did
While all my feelings for you were true
And you ran away and hid
Katie Lawrence Jan 2014
Nestled beneath a bush so snug and warm
Waiting for the light of day
The little snapdragon sits so torn
While the fairies with the roses play
She wishes she could be like them
So free and full of light
She watches as their glow comes near
But then it's gone and out of sight
