Life has loveliness to sell,
All beautiful and splendid things;
Blue waves whitened on a cliff,
Soaring fire that sways and sings,
And children’s faces looking up,
Holding wonder like a cup.

Life has loveliness to sell;
Music like a curve of gold,
Scent of pine trees in the rain,
Eyes that love you, arms that hold,
And, for the Spirit’s still delight,
Holy thoughts that star the night.

Give all you have for loveliness;
Buy it, and never count the cost!
For one white, singing hour of peace
Count many a year of strife well lost;
And for a breath of ecstasy,
Give all you have been, or could be.

My love is only a collection of words,
Words can not be strong themselves,
That's precisely why I try to improve.

I will be better than any other stars,
Eclipsing their lights in the daylight,
Hiding this ego for projecting yours.

None will be able to equal my light,
I take this hard time just like a test,
Showing path to my loved one's life.

Just have trust that I'll make it large,
My love won't rust as time passes by,
Only few more years to shine bright.

Tomorrow will be a good, right day,
Later it will be a better, perfect day,
My dear, this love we kindle will last.
My HP Poem #841

Deconstruct the established
Many ideas which supports them
Scrutinize them with precision
Dissect them to the core
Reveal the truth that they hold
In an endeavor to construct
One needs to deconstruct
To establish the relation and bonds
Nothing is permanent
Deconstruct to establish the truth

A
Poet
Shows their soul
On inked paper
A love not often heard but always felt
Emotions bled from their heart to fingers
Sewing broken letters together; their
Words dance across
Worn paper
'Ever
True
