I adore
I adore your laugh
Even though I've heard it twice
I adore your smile
Even though I've seen it only a few
I adore your body
Because what I have seen and felt was perfection
I adore your hands
Because they made me feel like never before
I adore your touch
It is magical
I adore your voice
Because it is like no other
I adore your scent
Because it was contradicting-sweet and bitter

But really, truly
I just adore you.
I can't wait for you to notice me.
I can't wait to spend hours on the phone.
I can't wait for the butterflies to erupt.
I can't wait for you to laugh at my stupidness.
I can't wait for the late night walks,
hand in hand.
I can't wait for the lonely yet romantic kisses.
I can't wait for the cute, ******* photos that I'll remember.
I can't wait to make memories that will never be forgotten.
I can't wait for 'friendly' touching.
I can't wait to fall.
I can't wait for you to say 'I love you'.
I can't wait to say it back.
I can't wait to get heartbroken.
I can't wait for the tears and agony.
I can't wait for the moment your forget me.
I can't wait for the times I can't forget you.
I can't wait for you to actually remember me.
I can't wait for you to say you miss me.
But what I can't wait for most,
is when I fall back in love with you all over again.
The overwhelming bits of life
Prevent us from
Hearing the waves crash onto the shore,
They prevent us from peace and serenity.
you can't see what i see;
how she hides you from my sight
as if the gods above could see
the battle i will fight.
she whispers to you softly
as she takes you by the arm;
in no time you are captured
by her beauty and her charm.

her clever wit and confidence,
her voice, so soft and calm
she wooed you in so sweetly
'til you rested in her palm.

you couldn't see what i saw
how she tore you up inside
she broke your heart in pieces
said she'd love you, but she lied.
i'd tell you that you're better now
so many times i've tried.
but my words are never quite enough
to make your tears subside.

the cracks are never mended
and the scars, they will not go.
you'd go back to her quite willingly
because you love her so.
but you don't see what i see;
how she loves to see you cry.
i know how much she matters
and without her, you would die

but with her, it is killing you
this pain will never end
until you save yourself from it
so let her go, my friend.
I hear the tick
and the click
and the beat of the drum

the sound of thudding
within my ear drums

It beats loudly
as the music strums
Softly and slowly
your voice hums

a beautiful tune

I must have assumed
that beautiful tune
was your heart beat
making music for me

You must have been amused

Now all the chords have been broken
The violin plays the saddest song tonight
Forever entwined within the notes
radiating from your subtle lies

This is the part in the chorus
where I fall to my knees
and plea for a different reprise

Kindly ask my heart
for the sense and sensibility
To start a new life

Those masterful musical notes
you wrote, are deeply embedded
Within a monstrosity of tangled
windpipes and heart valves

Should I trust your hands
When you are mad
they keep pushing me away
Should I trust your hands
When you are sad
They keep hugging me close
Should I trust your hands
When you are happy
They keep holding me
Should I trust your hands
When you are loving me
They keep cuddling me
Should I trust my hands instead?
When you are sleeping
They keep writing poetry....
write and dream poetry...
To
steal a heart
you are already a thief
will you
will you not
steal
again
for your love?
in
the name of love
I met a boy once
Who told me he was lonely
So I kept him safe from harm
He was broken lacked emotion
And made my world fall apart
The only solution was to loosen
The bond that we shared
We don't speak but its hard to keep
My emotions for him unaware.
