One, two, three, four
my tears fall from eyes
and lands down the floor

Five, six, seven, eight
I tried to stop them
But I guess it’s too late

Nine, I wish I could tell you
“Oh, I am fine” but —
Ten, they begin to fall again

I need
Your smell
To fill
The air
That
Poisons me

I need
Your voice
To fill
The silence
That
Deafens me

I need
Your touch
To fill
The emptiness
That
Consumes me

I need
Your heart
To fill
The loneliness
That
Kills me

I have a million thoughts running
through my head, circling like wheels
but none of them will be heard
none would come out as a word

I stare blankly at this paper
not knowing what to write to you
But I have a lot to say; hidden feelings,
unsaid words, and a longing

You took a part of my puzzle,
a puzzle that I have yet to complete
Now, my puzzle will always have a hole,
always have that one missing piece

You are my first thought in the day
and the last that leaves my mind at night
I gave you power, I gave my heart away
I loved you with all my heart, you didn’t stay

I am cold, frozen, and heartless
with death, no longer a heavy fear
with death, as a friend I want to meet
to end this pain I’ll forever feel

You came back, back to my crushed soul
“Do I deserve this?” I ask, you said no.
Out of fear, out of pain, I walked far, far away
“I love you.” you whispered, but silence
— silence was all I heard

I am a seed planted
Getting ready to grow
Like a crown carefully plated
Eyed on by a crow

Cyclones may come
And hurricanes too
Little one, stay calm
In struggles you’ll get through

Success won’t come easy
But in the end you’ll see
The air will be breezy
With you standing tall and free

I was born in a society where men rule
Men are always stronger than women
Men are smarter and more stable
Men aren’t as emotional
Men, men, men

"Women are weak." they say
Women are not weak, I thought
Women bleed for days
Women carry your babies
Women survive **** and abuse
Women, women, women

Women, without them,
men would cease to exist.

I’ve lost my hope on love
And you were sent to me from above
I doubt the things you say you feel
Most times words spoken are never real

Lessons are thrown at me a lot these days
Yet I see myself constantly going astray
You showed me ugly things could be beautiful
I realized for a long time I was being a fool

I promised myself I’ll give our love a try
Please don’t disappoint my heart with a goodbye
Knowledge is knowing love would give pain
Just remember rainbows always come after the rain

Love comes in all shapes and sizes.
Love is never too young or old
Love comes to school very late.
Love comes wearing blue braces.
Love comes in with red dyed hair.
Love comes with tender care.
Love will come tomorrow night.
Love left you an ache that bites.
Love comes from the heart.
Love doesn’t care if you hate art.
Love loves you for you are.
Even if you’re gay, straight, or bi.
Love still loves you to the stars.
