Maya Angelou
Beloved,
In what other lives or lands
Have I known your lips
Your Hands
Your Laughter brave
Irreverent.
Those sweet excesses that
I do adore.
What surety is there
That we will meet again,
On other worlds some
Future time undated.
I defy my body's haste.
Without the promise
Of one more sweet encounter
I will not deign to die.

Unrequited Love
Its easy to call someone beautiful when they have spent an hour doing there hair and make up, when they are wearing a skin tight cocktail dress and a push up bra

Its more difficult to say it when the hair gets ******* and the make up is smudged by tears the dress replaces with a stained  t- shirt
                                                      
Because as I'm looking in the mirror right now the last word that comes to my mind is beautiful...

Oh No One
You and I

Oh No One
You* think you're boring.
I* think you're the most exciting person in the world.
You think you're ugly.
I think you're the most gorgeous person on the planet.
You think you're stupid.
I think you're a genius.
You think you have flaws.
I think you're more perfect than anything I've ever seen.
You think you're not good enough.
I think you're the best thing that's ever happened to me.
No matter what you think, I'll always think you're amazing.

Unrequited Love
When I hear someone say to someone
"You are what I live for" I don't find it cute. That's a lot of pressure to put on someone and how can your life be consumed by a single person.
Do you know what I live for...
Sunrises.
Ocean water running over my feet.
Laughter.
The morning dew.
The light in someone's eyes when you complement them.                                  
Hugs.
Sunsets.
I could go on forever and to be honest you're on my list.
But you don't need you to carry the burden of keeping me alive.
I live because I think life is beautiful and you are just one small fraction of its many wonders.
People come and go but I can count on the sunrise and sunset
