The Most Popular Poem Written

The most popular poem written
Is the poem made for you
When you read it you feel the story
And somehow you know its true

You may feel yourself within it
Caught up within its lines
Believing what the words may say
It takes you back in time

The poem may remind you
Of a special time or place
The memory of a long lost love
Or the smile upon a face

You may read the poem and wonder
How it can be so true
Creates a feeling deep inside
Known only by a few

The most popular poem written
Is the poem made for you
When you read it you feel the story
And somehow you know its true

Remember the smallest of things,
The inside jokes
The best sunsets
The warmest smiles
And the people who gave them;
For one day you will realize they left
And the person who said to be a friend
Is the one pushing you aside from the crowd,
*And you can no longer see the sunsets,
But a pale dark sky hugging your thought.

And now you like simple girls
When I already combed my hair
Like the way your former girls do

When I already painted my lips
Like how the roses would bloom
In rows in the fields

When I already dressed myself
With how the pretty girls do

When I already turned into something
Your senses have been looking for

"I like simple girls"
And I never got the irony
Turned myself into someone I don't know
Because now, right in this moment

*You like simple girls...

You're like the sweet smell of rain,
The petrichor falling upon my lips,
And you never cease to keep me in awe.

The delight of you is strong,
But you never stay long enough
For me to fully appreciate
The feeling of your presence.

So next time you greet me,
Stay,
And let me show you what it's like
To roam the earth so whimsically.

I am certain she does not love me
the way that I love her
so full,
so poetically passionately,
so self-destructively,
so lovely,
In all her darkness.

A black sun that burns brighter
than any celestial body;
I would let myself burn
to touch it,
to see it I would let
myself go blind.

I hope she does not mind
that I love her so deeply.
I give it freely,
not expecting anything
explicit in return.

Hoping that she
will always be merely
one poem or message
away from me.

Being with you was like eating sunshine
I was full
I was happy
I was warm

i'd love to believe
the universe will soon
let us be together
at the right time
in the right place
with every bit of us
being nothing but
right for each other
'til next time..
i'll wait for you
for as long as I can
