I wonder if the lavender
yearn for her scent
whenever she's not present.

I wonder if the sunflowers
crave her little light
like the sun every night.

I wonder if the roses
envy her beauty
that captivated me.
You
In the morning when I wake
And the sun is coming through,
You fill my lungs with sweetness,
And you fill my head with you
Shall I write it in a letter?
Shall I try to get it down?
You fill my head with pieces
Of a song I can't get out
Can I be close to you?

Can I take it to a morning
Where the fields are painted gold
And the trees are filled with memories
Of the feelings never told?
When the evening pulls the sun down,
And the day is almost through,
The whole world it is sleeping,
But my world is you

do you see these stars every night?
each of them have their own light,
with different stories they told,
they might be pretty bold.

these stars are sparkling bright,
however, amidst the night light
are the clouds trying to block your way,
trying to take over the stars.

the stars all have their own tale,
however not all shine so brightly,
because these stars may become pale,
or they fade so quickly and easily,

but watch these stars.
one day, all of them
will be like the shining aurora borealis
on a winter solstice,

but don't vanish your colors so easily.
it will not definitely be easy to go
in the path of shining stars,
where everyone competes.

the colored stars shine bright
because of how colorful they are
but don't let that take you,
you'll shine bright too.

and you'll be part of them
if you'll be able to shine brightly
despite the difficulties,
you'll still stand out with everyone.

you'll be something to remember,
even though it was for a few seconds
in someone's life, as long as you
shined, it does matter.

this is a letter from me to you;
the stars may not have anything for you,
but if you think deep inside your heart,
those stars represent you.

well, not only you, but everything.
your precious memories,
your family and friends,
and everything that matters to you.

you know when you keep making mistakes?
remember, those mistakes helped you.
they helped you in shaping your star,
and helped you be who you are today.

the stars are scattered,
something like what a baby mess scattered,
but they shine in the glorious night sky.
do you see these stars?
i like the starry night and i wish that our hearts could collide as one.

we'll get through these together
we'll make it through the bad weather;

we know everyday is a new day,
as long as we're here and we'll still stay.

some days are really rainy,
but with you, i feel less lonely;

one day, hand in hand we'll see the sunshine,
and as one sooner we'll feel just fine.

I see that you're struggling
I acknowledge your pain
One can't appreciate the sunshine
Without experiencing a little rain

I know you feel broken
As you count down seconds on the clock
Just know that when you need someone
I'll be your rock

Standing by you through the storms
Without pause I take on this task
You can cry, scream, or cuss me out
As we wait for them to pass

I understand that you're tired
But you mustn't stop fighting
When the darkness surrounds you
I'll shine a light, just keep climbing
  
You're not alone in your feelings
Though at times it may seem
We've all felt ourselves drowning,
Gasping, struggling to breathe

You are only human
You do what you can
Don't ever be ashamed
To need a helping hand

You're not without flaws
But that's indeed my favorite part
The realest person I've ever known;
A true work of art
Mosaic : a picture or pattern produced  by arranging together small, broken pieces ; art
Your heart has been broken.
I’ll pick up the pieces,
And glue them with kisses,
Back to life I will stroke them.
Let me fill your missing sections
With the shattered parts
Of my own broken heart,
And we’ll be each other’s resurrection.

Wounded and dissected,
Your soul thirsting exempt.
Imperfect, unkempt
As our kisses mend our rejected.
Let yourself into my affection,
Because I need it, too.
Our smile knows the truth:
We're the cure for our infection.

We tessellate in time:
I am a part of who you are,
And you are a part of mine.

Mosaic of us:
Broken in our own way,
Perfectly aligned
Along these jagged lines
To form a beauty unrefined.

he was a masterpiece,
you can even say
that he was much more vaulable than a timepiece,
and everyday
he would always seem
to make my heartbeat increase.*

for he was such a lovely masterpiece.
darling, you are a lovely work of art.
