You left me broken.

I only hope that the next person to love me-
is able to push aside my broken pieces,
and see the beauty ,
in what is left.
Recently someone very close to me shattered my heart, but there is someone else now. He is perfect, and I hope to God that he see's through my brokenness.

Loving you
Is like laying at the bottom of a pool and looking up; It’s oh so beautiful
But dear,
I’m drowning

I wish I could write a poem
That snuck into your skin
Or sunk into your pores
And touched the parts
Of you that you
Didn’t know existed

Poems pull at my heart strings
creating emotions, so loud
through the silent screen

I want to write,
to create a stir
to make people feel
and bask and absorb
in each little word

I can only hope and try
and perhaps I’ll do it right

Actions speak louder than words

This is the principle of my silent world

But then one day I didn't believe what I heard

It was the voice of your heart that twisted and twirled

I couldn't hear anything, not a single noise

But it was a miracle to hear the sound of your voice

I heared your heart beating, I hear you speak your mind

To me, you were different, you're one- of-a-kind

I see your every movement, like music to my eyes

Reading your dreams amuse me, dreams as high as the skies

You're the only one I can hear

You brought music I can feel

I'll always keep you near

The one I'll call my dear

— The End —
