It's been almost a year since we first met
i know our time together was short
Yet I still miss laying in your bed

I miss all of the simple things
Riding to Walmart in your car
I miss the play fights and how my skin would sting

I miss how I felt with you, safe and mature
You saw me as a person
And our love was the first time I felt sure

I miss the feeling of it all
The lack of anxiety because you made me feel at home
You helped spread my wings and help me stand tall

I forever wish
I could feel this again
Feel you again, hug and kiss

The feeling of your cold hands
Against my warm body
And it would tickle and we would laugh and together we'd stand

I want to kiss your neck and make you squirm
Mumble under your breath and nudge me away
But I'd continue and away you'd turn

So respectful, protective, amazing
My mom is crazy about you
Even now, her love for you is blazing

It's been a year since our first escape
And I'll forever wish
To float away with you to our own secret place

I love her.

With every inch of me, since day one.
When her hair is messy.
Uncombed and curly,
Pulled back into a sloppy ponytail
That falls so chaotically across her shoulders.
With several strands pulled out, framing her face.
A cigarette delicately tucked, safely behind her ear.

I love her.
After she wakes up.
Eyes blackened from her obsessive and excessive use of makeup.
With awful breath and resting ***** face,
She is Beautiful.

I love her.
When we stand outside.
And rays of sunshine illuminate her brown eyes,
Turning them into endless vats of amber,
Untouched by man.
Glistening until the end of time.

I love her.
When she is curled into me.
Sleeping deeply and soundly,
Snoring louder than my thoughts,
Shaking and Twitching from whatever goes on in her beautiful subconscious.

I love her.
With no expectations of reciprocation.
I understand I do not fit the criteria due to inevitable reasons.
One day I will, and it will be beautiful.

I love her.
And because of that I will change.
I will become what she needs because if I have her my body does not matter.
She is the one of my dreams.
The one I think about at midday and midnight.
The one my most lovely of poems are of.
The one I have only truly loved.
She does not find me attractive in the way I do her.

But that is okay.
Because I love her.
And one day,
She Will Love Me
I´m in love with a straight girl, and she loves me too but cannot be with me because I´m female.

Did you ever feel guilty at night for hurting me?
You're such a beautiful tragedy

I was asked,
"What is your goal with writing poems?"
It would be easy to say fame
Fortune
Recognition

But honestly
I couldn't care less about how many people know my name

I just wish to have one person relate
Possibly help them through a trial of life
Make an impact on just one person

I want to tell you stories
of how I dream to be great
encourage me to reach them
with you
in each passing days.
I want to hear you giggle
at my lame jokes
laugh on how corny they were
declare that I'm better in somewhere else
and that I should quit it
but I will still going to tell you more.
I want to cuddle you at night
whisper sweet nothings
until you fall asleep
in my arms
hear you snore
watch you in the dim light
watch you stay safe by my side.
I want to wake up next to you
the first thing I'm going to see as I open my eyes
was your taunting huge brown eyes
twinkling brighter than the morning star
the first thing I could touch
would be your porcelain skin
to prove to me
that the last night was not a dream.
I want to love you.
But each time I close my eyes
I see my hair in the sheets
tangled with amber strands
and yours are *jet black.

People act like
The whole world revolves around love
That you need it to survive
Without it, you wouldn´t thrive

But what about when it rips a Son from his Family
When he is in love with a psychotic alcoholic?
How great is Love when it turns him cold.
He hasn´t talked to his sister in weeks.

She was his world
His saviour, his boo.
And now I´m just a faint reminder
In the next town over.

Love is great
When it´s with the right person.
But I Promise you, brother dear,
She is wrong.
