When your ship
came crashing back to shore
I knew the ocean didn’t love us
anymore.

you move like rain,
you move like the storm.
Sometimes soft,
sometimes heavy.
You end my droughts,
leaving a rainbow,
to clear my doubts,
in sun or in snow.

Kisses for you
for lunch and
for dinner-
for now
'til eternity.

Maybe
I was in love
with the idea of
who you could have been
more than who
you really are.

If our love
is a war then
I am the soldier
that promises to
lives to tell
the tale.

I trace
golden stairways
over your skin that
lead me to heaven:
your body.

I hope I make your
day better with my poems-
my words for your soul

Chocolate eyes,
two distant planets
that hold a mystery more mystifying
than the furthest reaches of our galaxy.
My heart longs to
make the voyage
and make a home in your orbit,
but for now,
home is out of reach.

My fair lady,
when you are ready
to fly to the moon,
I promise
to never let you
out of my
orbit.

I love you so much
that I would share my toilet
paper with you, babe

We live in
troubled times,
where leaders fail
and pandemics prevail.
Mass hysteria is
the only game in town-
society's going down
because we cannot hear,
and we cannot think
over the turmoil
spreading across
our soil.

Hey you, it has been
Awhile but my heart still
beats only for you

12:40 PM

I just want to be
enough but not too much all
at once, just for you

4:40 PM
11/3/20

I lay my head
into your chest
and your heart skips a beat.
I always hum along,
for it is my favorite
song.

This poem
is a love letter
that's been sealed with hope
and sent with the wish
that all my little words
find their way
to you.

It is too easy
to hurt me because I am
human after all

Your smile puts the sun
to shame - without it the sun
doesn't shine the same

7:28 PM

I know
it may seem
like things aren't
ever going to be alright
but in the end,
time will prove
you wrong-
it always
does.

We've only just met
and already I am so
helplessly in love

What we desire
after midnight is seldom
good for the spirit

I don’t like
that I miss you this much.
No matter how many lies
I tell myself,
I still can't shake
these lingering
feelings.

Wrote you a haiku
and all I lost was a small,
small part of myself

If you do not want
to be happy with me then
it is not true love

Dear diary;
I ate a whole
wheel of cheese
for dinner tonight.
Regret nothing about this-
at least, not yet.

if you were
a flower
then maybe I’d learn
to garden.
How glorious it would be
to spend my days getting
your love underneath
my fingernails
and watching euphoria bloom?

You keep pouring sorrow
into my glass that is
already full.
You pour
and you pour,
until it overflows,
and then you pour
some more.

One soul
and one heart
is not enough to
contain all
of this
sorrow.

Dear diary;
my back aches
from carrying all of
these memories-
my soul aches from
bearing all these regrets
from a distant life
I'd rather forget.

The skies are
fading
and the leaves are
withering
underneath
my skin.
I've got the
Autumn blues
again.

A dismal duet-
more like a sad solo
of two hearts
breaking in harmony.
Their tone is flat and
the lyrics don't rhyme.
The melody has gone
astray and the
music dies.

Maybe my poems
are so short because
I wish to avoid the pain
of remembering
too much.

Baby, hold me close-
these cold and lonely nights will
be the death of me

Just because your words
are comforting, doesn't mean
they bring peace of mind

Dear diary;
I need something
stronger than an ******-
something that really rattles the bones
and shakes me to the core
of my soul.

Dear diary;
Today was
a good day to die.
But worry not,
ready or not,
I'm going to
live young
and die fast.

I’m sorry
that you can't
see her face
without seeing my face.
I hate that you ruined
all of our favorite songs-
just one note and I
am at your mercy.
But in the end,
I hope this will not destroy me,
well, me at least,
not because the ending torments me,
but because the memories don't.
No, quite the opposite.

Don’t ask to love me
when what you really mean is
you want to touch me

6:19 PM

Dear diary;
Sometimes I wish
I could stop existing-
no, not to die,
but just to stop feeling-
just to stop being.

I do not need to
be reminded of the cost
of falling for you

11:14 PM

It’s funny that for
the most part, we forget that
we are so alone.

Dear diary;
last night I met the moon.
She forgot how to shine in
the darkest of nights.
We grew close-
a bittersweet bond
since one of us
was fading
away.

I love you every
day but today I will put
it in a haiku

7:49 PM
23/2/20

I see every galaxy
shining through your eyes
and every star
burning in
your smile.

I am too
many tragedies
disguised as a man with
too many wounds
disguised as
memories.

Oh London, you were
a dream and a nightmare all
wrapped up into one

7:37 AM
19/2/20

There was I time,
long ago,
when I could sleep
in peace-
in love.
I didn't need to dream
when you were in my arms-
my dreams could not compare to
the way I could close my eyes
and wake up to the scent of you.
But gone are those days,
and I am left with the memory.
Now, I find my thoughts
running in circles,
always back
to you.

Why do I still crave
validation from people
who I've never met?

7:10 PM
18/2/20

Dear diary;
my heart
met my soulmate
in the space between
slumber and waking.

Sleep's not the cure
but it sure as hell helps to
ease some of this pain

6:53 PM
18/2/20

There's still time to find
validation, or so I
tell myself each year.
