You were my summer,
Waking up my sleepy eyes
With your striking smile
Like the sunlight shining through the leaves.

You kissed me
And your mouth tasted like
The mocha you were sipping
While reading your favorite novel.

You hugged me
Like you were bathing me
With the cool morning breeze.

Until I woke up next to nothing
With the window open
Then the snow started falling
I realized, It's the winter season.

I'm captivated by your angelic voice
I never thought it would be so deafening

Your scent is taking over my system
My nose was bleeding

I had to look at your face
My eyes couldn't stop tearing

I feel your touch on my skin
I feel it burning
the thought of you fired fills me with terror
fearing the potentiality of love
everytime you creep in my mind
my heart is shouting in horror
the midst of my being is struggling
trying to avoid the stung of your touch
the sweetness of words from your mouth
you looked at me in many different ways
and i couldn't figure out what it means
all i know is i am lost in a sea of make believe
i am made of unsettled debate
wrestle of positive and negative what ifs
why does love need to be like a gamble
you need to risk, i need to risk
the possibility of getting our heart broken
is always present.
there's only one thing sure about love
there are no sure-enough.

I had this dream inside my mind. I was looking at the world from the other side. I saw trees, mountains and oceans. I witnessed how a garden colorfully blossoms during spring. I saw rainbows connecting from the side to the other and the clouds perfectly shaped like cotton candy.

I heard the chirping of the birds. The calming sound of  water coming from the waterfall. I heard people saying I love you's, and children's honest laughter. Everything felt so surreal and it was all naturally beautiful.

I opened my eyes, and I was smiling.
I looked at the mirror, my eyes crinkled, my lips twitched, i touched my chest, my heart pounded and I suddenly felt an inner glow. I realized that the most natural beauty and purest emotion you could ever feel in the world is the joy to your heart.
