You've cut off your hands; convinced that you're not what you consider beautiful and it saddens me. But I'll plant a seed of love everyday just so you can walk through a garden of all the love I feel when it comes to you, and what you should feel about yourself. I'll do this just so you can see the beauty that I see. And with every grown seed; the flower that you touch, that's you. You're the beauty. All the bright colours  and scents within these petals and buds. That's what I've been telling you, love. You make the world better.

I want someone who sees me
and doesn't think I am ugly,
doesn't think I'm too messy.
Someone who'll let me down easily,
thinks of me highly,
who can take care of me.

I want someone who will
keep me safe. Who will ****
any harm out of the way till
time stands still.
Someone who still gets a thrill
going through the mill.

I want that person to be me.

He was there in my dreams again. I felt it. I was so close to bringing him home. I was just about to, but then I woke up. And we're separated once again. The only place I could meet him, to be reunited, it's being pulled away from me. So many dreams and encounters; the good, the bad, I always try to bring him home but I always wake up before I even get the chance to hold on to him.

I know you see your friends as flowers. Different, but beautiful in their own ways. They remind you of sunshine and everything good and pure in this world. I understand you want the best for them, for making you happy. But honey, I also know how you show your love. You water them everyday but because of your insistence, you'd overdo it and start watering them too much. I know you mean well but you need to watch how much you're pouring over them. Too much will **** them, even if you want to give them the care (you think) you could provide.

She burst into tears and that sound;
choking sobs and gasping on air,
broke me and rattled my bones.

I sat, frozen. Not knowing how to comfort
as I chewed on my food and
going over strategies to assist her.

I ended up joining her at the sink,
stood and wrapped an arm around her
trembling body, still sniffing.

She whispered a "thank you" and left.
I waited and heard her echoing
silent sobs filled the empty hallway.
