I'd make a
thousand
sail-boats,
a million
paper-planes,
toss myself
into the wind,
And collect in
your lungs with
every
breath you take.
Random feels.

Everything you ever wanted;
everything you ever dreamt about.
They're all just sitting
at the top of
the stair-case
         that we call
                    this life...

         All you
      have to
   do is
step.

Don't worry about
Tomorrow
Until tomorrow
Comes,
Because no one is
Guaranteed
To live that long.

Don't dwell or live
In the past.
You cannot change
What has been said
Or what has happened.

Like most things in life;
Time is out of our control.
And when it comes down to it
At the end of every day,
The only thing that matters
Is whether we accept and learn from our decisions.
Or continue to drown in all the ideas for
"What could have been."

You're like a light at the end of a pitch black tunnel. and I'm sprinting towards you with wide-spread arms, even though it isn't guaranteed that you'll accept me the same way I'll accept you.
But I'm finally willing to take a chance.
   If I never try, then I'll never know, and I'm sick of beating myself up at the end of every day all due to the fact that I was too much of a coward to take a risk.

     I'm not grown; I'm growing.
         Part of growing is learning,
And I believe knowledge is a power locked deep within our heads and passion is the key to unlock it so we can let our minds run free.
     So that our ideas can become a vast landscape blooming and teeming with life!
     But, in order to learn, I have to take risks.
So I'll step into darkness with faith and hope.
Because if I never try, then I'll never know.
I hope you enjoy this!
It's an "off-the-top-of-the-head" idea.
Wrote whatever came to mind (:

If there's one thing
In this life
That I want
To see
For all of
You.
      It is for
            All of
               You
                 To be
                    Content.
Not only
With who you
Are,
But also
With everything
You've done
And everything
You will do.

So let the rain pour
I'll sleep today
Don't wake me till morrow
Unless you're here to stay

Give me this blessing
That I'll wake by your side
If the rain is still pouring
We'll stay inside

When it's over and the flowers bloom
I'll pluck a dozen and give them to you
The drops of rain will glisten and shine
Just like the brightness of your beautiful eyes

Give me this day
O' so full of rest
And allow me to show you
My very best.
Wrote this a while ago, came across it today.

Last night
I sat outside,
Counting
All the stars
In the sky.

I lied upon
The damp
Grass
Still drying from
The
Rain.
Waiting for
A star
To fall into
The atmosphere,

Although
Not a single one did,
I still managed
To gain a
Tiny piece of
Infinity
While lying
Effortlessly
Upon the
Ground.

I know
Now
That it was
Never about
Settling
My
Scores,

But with
A tiny
Piece of
Infinity,
I'm left
With only
Wanting
More.
It's something

She took my hands and placed them on her hips,
Then smiled at me as I craved for her lips.
My palms were sweaty and I started losing grip,
My vision started getting blurry and I almost tripped,
But something was keeping my composure,
And now that I think about it, I probably should have told her.

Because

I swear to god she was the one who saved me,
But when I think about her, it drives me crazy.
Because the moment passed and she had to leave,
Just as I noticed the cuts under her sleeves.
I didn't ask why,
And even if I wanted to, I didn't have time.
I understand what it's like to try and cope,
Feeling weak in a world so "cut-throat."

Maybe I feel like I should return the favor,
To be the one who is her savior.
But that's all on the list
Of maybes and "what-ifs."

Truthfully I don't know,
And for now I should stay on my toes,

At least until the day comes when I see her again,
And not let go of what could had been.
Just a free-verse.
