I know why
I want to spend
the rest of my life
with you

its the night conversations
filled with our hearts
that mean something
that keeps me alive.

its the smile in your eyes
I want to see each night
but I can't
because im so far away

but distance won't stop me
you capture the most
beautiful pictures
of yourself at
the greatest of moments.

you're feeling a little sad
and I refuse to get mad
because you're human
and humans have feelings

but if I find out
that someone's making
you sad
things won't be
as pretty

I really love you
and I just want
you to have
happiness
because
happiness is key.

Poetry is like spider webs. Each word has so much meaning. A spider prefers to spin its web at night. Maybe this is because thats when they have the most on their minds or when they feel safe.

Each web a beautiful creation. The time it takes to create it and the little appreciation it gets. They say a spider will eat its web when moving on, every poet will eat their words one day.

Cob webs, are webs that have been abandoned and left to die. Our bodies will one day be left to die.

This moment, this one right now, is all we have. We will leave our poetry behind to turn into Cob Webs. Maybe one day a child may stumble across these words and bring them back to life.

Poetry is the most powerful thing we have and we need to give it to everyone. So the next time you see a spider web, appreciate it a little more.

Think of it as, poetry. Something or someone spent a lot of time making it. And put their soul into it. Because what is poetry if not a spiders web in the corner waiting to be realized?

Sometimes you can't just scream
and let it all out
because you can't always
take a big enough breath to
equal your pain

I was so willing to
fight for you
but you took away
my armour and
stabbed me
in the back.

scheduled a meeting with you
in spite of myself.

wrote down a couple of guidelines.

    "be polite. be friendly.
    avoid her eyes, and her hair as well,
    do not look at her legs, do not look
    for flirty subtext in her casual
    conversation. ask the right questions.
    don't stammer. remember you are not 13.
    don't look at her and smile and say
    'I love you'
    when all you should be saying is
    'goodbye.'"

tried not to worry; after all, it's just
a crush.

after all, I am not really
in love with you
that
much.
