A thistle in a meadow is bold and beautiful, not because it's different, but because it was given a chance to grow...

Once more round the sun
and passed reality is become undone.
Reaching through an aura of melancholic euphoria,
a resolution: feelings no longer will I run from.

Today is the day.
I am a mayfly.
I have no memories of growing up,
and no expectations of growing old.
I have learned nothing.

Today is my day.
I will not sit by.
Swiftly I live, there is no slowing up,
and no time for my feelings going cold.
I will be something.

Today is the day.
I’ll reach for the sky.
Driven only by instinct flowing up,
to unknown destiny of glowing gold.
I am everything.

Today is the day.
I will live and die.
I’ll have seized the day just by showing up,
ignoring fear to live by knowing bold.
I won’t be nothing.

Peel me mangos
And the pain goes and mixes with the fruit’s sweet flesh,
Dripping fresh and bitter-sweet

You still come to me when I’m asleep
to whisper pretty nothings in my ear
until my brow sears each passing thought with your image
I imagine you as timid as at our first meeting, as bold as at our last, your laughter repeating on and on and on

on our last day you kissed me sweetly, the taste of mango on your lips

I wish I could capture all of your tears.

The sadness in them seen with clarity.
I wish to treat them with love, warmth and sincerity.

Reasons big or small...
None constitute for your tears to fall.
Keeping the shimmer of happiness in your eyes is what I wish,
my love for your soul will never diminish.

I wish I could capture all of your tears and pour them into a loving cup.
For you to sip from when your heart needs a pick up.

Unreal, is the chemical you make me feel.
Having you in my life allows me to feel.

Although I will never truly be sure that I have you as mine.
I am and never will be good enough,
unreal that you allow me to try.

I am thankful that you allow me to love.
Unreal that you don't put up a fight or tell me I'm too much.

I may put you on a pedestal, please don't let that deter you...
For I'm just trying to prove the love I have is true.

I'm connected to you through an energy that I'm still tying to figure out.
Still not sure how we came about.

The fealing inside of me that I'm trying to reveal is that my opportunity to love you is simply unreal.
