Dear no one,

I don't know why I talk to you
every day.
It's not like you have the abilty
to answer me,
but I feel I must tell someone
when I'm happy or sad
or even in between.

You're someone I can trust to
keep a secret,
and be quiet when I need you to.
Thank you for that,

but you're still just a book labeled
"Diary".

"I guess I'm overwhelmed by you"
is all I can say.
I'm barely ever speechless
but you take my words away.

I'm hardly ever silent,
but for you I'll be quiet.
Just listen to your sweet voice
going on and on.

I take my time to look at you,
to take everything in.
So that, when we part,
I can see you again.

For my memories of you
linger within,
bringing a smile to my face.

And when you catch me out
I won't look away.
I'll just smile and watch you
again.

slowly they walked,
with flushed-red cheeks

perfection in simplicity,
her hand in his.

Wicked eyes
Pretty lies
Strong fists

What everyone expects...
with a twist.
Dare to be different. Dare to be unique. Dare to be YOU.

my heart kept beating
faster and faster.
then I crashed...
it all went black.
rivers of salty fluid
formed dams in the
hand which cupped my
face.
my heart ached and I
let out a shaky scream,
again and again.
thoughts of you
flooded my mind.
Oh, what painful memories...

He's a loner.

He can't depend
and he's not dependable.

He has friends
but he keeps secrets.

He has a family...
outside his bedroom door.

No pets,
just projects.

No plants,
just homework.

No tears,
just a water bottle.

He's just a loner,
a thoughtful loner, indeed.

I didn't pay attention to you.

I couldn't bare your company.

I didn't know much about you.

Maybe I didn't even meet you.

All I know is that you loved me,
no matter my
imperfections.

It's a shame to say that I didn't care for your aging heart

until the day you
left.

The day I had to say goodbye to someone I hardly knew
once
twice
thrice.

Then I grew up and realized what you mean to me
and couldn't even tell you.

I'm sorry I didn't appreciate you
for you always loved me
and I hope that you know

that I love you too.
Cherish the people around you because one day they won't be around anymore and you'll want to be at peace with the time you've spent together.
