in some ways I believe
there is a world beyond our own
so much greater
so much more beauty

but then I listen to the raindrops
fall softly against my skin
and watch as the sun climbs out
and the rain and sun come together
            complete opposites
to create the elegance of a rainbow

I watch in awe as fields of rolling bluebells
blow so softly in the breeze
and I listen to the wind
whispering stories to the trees
and the birds chirping back a response

the mystique of the moon and the wonders that it holds
the secrets of women and men that it has never told
I watch as the stars glow softly
thinking that maybe there cannot be a place
even half as beautiful as this

On the warm July night,
He held me close, and refused to let me go.
He grabbed my waist,
Looked me right in the eyes,
And jumped into the darkness.
His smile never faded,
His eyes never left mine.
How I wish I knew
Exactly what he was thinking
On the warm July night.
He told me that I was most important,
He told me that he did not care about the others.
Just like that,
My heart fell into his hands
He loves me;

3 years
And 346 days have passed
Since I first looked into your eyes.
Everyday
I crash and burn.
I am alone, as she is deep within his arms,
On this August night.
It is cold,
And I wish that you were here.
He is smiling at her,
Now holding her waist,
Looking into her eyes.
Where have you gone?
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking,
You have left me.
Have I crossed your mind,
On this cold August night?
He loves me not;

I picked all the petals
Off of each flower
And I still do not know
If he loves me
Or not.
-A.M.
