All worldly powers
are his, and yet
his decisions are made
with a mind like a rabid mouse.
He got what he wanted,
which was everything,
now everything is his
to lose.

His is not the misery
of privation, cured by
a roof for the night,
a plate of food,
a warm bed,
but the misery of too much,
yet not enough
for which no remedy exists.

On the battle ground of the heart,
all wars between ego mind
and hearts truths will be fought.
The heart always the winner.
inspired by PoetryJournal
His hair beams dark gold glitter
like it memorizes sunshines.
No wonder why it always feels like summer
when my fingers surf between them.

Our hearts are making music together

And we are mersmerised

by the sweet melody

Broken

You struck me down
I brought you up
You broke my heart
You stupid ****
My ****** body
Lay by your side
A knife in hand
You laugh with pride
On my hands and knees
I crawl back to you
With bleeding wrists
I whisper, "I love you too"
There's no way out
Of this hell I'm in
Slaughter me now
Consume my sin
You didn't care
About me now or then
So I'm done with you
I won't come back again.

Little girls,
Growing up dreamers.
Dreaming of becoming a princess.
Not because of the ball gowns,
Nor the gigantic castle.

You see,
Little girls dream of,
a happily ever after,
Prince Charming,
And true love.

All these fantasies,
All these stories,
Create that feeling of longing,
That longing to have someone.
To find their Prince Charming.

Little girls,
All grown up now.
Their personality,
Their perspective,
And their dreams,
They all have changed.

But you see,
That fantasy,
That dream,
Remains.
No matter what they become
Or who they become.

Girls will always have that dream with in them.

Oh little girl,
You’re prince will come.
Bringing you’re happily ever after.

Little girl,
Don’t give up.
He’s out there.
He’s on his way.

On his way to find you.
His true love.

Em
Your eyes can say one thousand words.
A picture
of the galaxies,
framed by your long lashes
which have the strength to latch onto me

Your eyes can say one thousand words
But you have not yet given me
the map
the legend
the dictionary
or the puzzle's key.

I wish

I wish the sky wasn't blue
And the water below so pure

I wish the mountains weren't so rough
And the weather so fine

I wish the wind were silent
And the traffic not this fast

I wish the sun didn't shine
And happiness ever last

I wish tomorrow weren't just another day
And I wouldn't cry

I wish I didn't love you this bad
I wish I could let go

I wish I could help staring at the sky above
I wish I could lie

I wish these stars weren't real
I wish we could hide

I wish the truth wasn't the truth
I wish I could fly

Away

Away from my self
Away from you
