Jermon
To himself, he sat thinking, by the corner
Blinking his tears away, just a warmer
Drowning in syrup, he'd called it when he was younger
The thoughts filling his mind, couldn't get any darker

Just when he thought
His heart wouldn't last any longer
She came around the corner
Her heart in it no longer

But seconds passed
Words exchanged
They grew to lean on
Each other's soft change

They filled each other's
Emptiness
With a void not devoid
Of Happiness

In it they fell
And through it became well
And their confidence to swell
For each other, defied Hell

Through thick and thin
They were always within
One another's reach
For the trust between
They never breach

Tears mingled
With smiles of care
And sighs of being there
At one's share

He was the half
She was the other

To himself, he sat thinking, by the corner
Blinking his tears away, just a warmer
She'd never left, till death befell her.

There's something that just doesn't feel right in this poem, is pretty sure it's not poetic enough, but well, I'll work on it.

she used to call herself, Laurein
but i love it most calling her, mine
i know it's a bit cheesy,
but she's the love i couldn't define

i tried math
to find the value of her love
but i found indefinite

i tried science
to search and study
how great she is
yet even Einstein complained;
she's more than we could understand

i tried asking GOD...
and was told,
to just hold your hand, tight
with eyes gleaming with contentment and surprise
"love her for the rest of your life,
for the love she have,
is an equation made only for you"

Infamous one
Can't always say what I feel or think
My words twisted or feeling used against me
I've said the truth and got hated for my honesty
While others lie and are fake they get praised
It should be me but they chose someone else
Toughed it out, all the doubt can I do without
Did so much not doing anything now
Drives me crazy asking what I did wrong
Can't be this or can't do that worked hard
Overlooked deep down shook taken forgranted
Not my place made it a home and have grown
Deep breaths overwhelmed not sure if I want to do it anymore
Writing hearing voices things that need to be said
Some get hurt in respond eats me up dead inside
All I want is to be alive make it to the end of the day and survive

It wasn’t sacrifice, no,
It was meant to be invention.
How many times have I climbed
That crumbling edge of cliff,
Confident, fearless of the wide sky,
I stepped into a place where
There was only air.
A hot rush of melting wings
And I felt what it meant to fall…
A broken doll, all twisted limbs,
Bruised flesh, bashed pride.
I had been warned of the sublime
Beyond a mortal’s reach…
A human body is not meant to fly.
I’ve paid dearly for my careless hope
Yet continue to believe there’s a lucky star
Somewhere in my horoscope.

Waves

I looked at the bright
blue ocean
and looked at the
calming waves
slowly coming,
and going
and i stepped into
the water
a cold rush ran
up my leg as I
continued walking
and then those
calming waves
turned into Big
Monstrous waves
and eventually
I was under them
and I reached for
the surface
but I couldn't
make it.
And I was left
wondering
how something
so perfect
could be so
dangerous.

I remember love
I remember it tasted like sugar
But as I look back it tastes bitter
And the more I think of
All the sensual dances are now satanic slithers

I like it when you hold me
and pout your lips, smiling a little bit
and you look in my eyes
before stealing a kiss on my nose

It gives me butterflies
that leap and soar
because I'm so in love with you

I like the way you think
how you're thoughtful and measured
how you listen and remember
how you always try to do the right thing

It makes me feel safe
and grounded and at home
and so in love with you

I like every moment I spend with you
and I'm eager for more

how many years
does it take to see
the More you have
the less you're free
the other way around
is what you'd think it'd be
the More you have
the less you need
but what you need
isn't always what you have
as we all could do
with a little less
and the less you have
the More you know
it's easier
to let it go

...and when you find that
the less that you'll want
