How do you tell someone
something big that you have done?
Will they hate you?
Will they love you?
Will they tell you to run?

You will need to have trust.
It’s important. Please, you must.
You have to risk it
You’ll be okay.
Just wipe off all the dust

And tell your beautiful story.
The world will see your glory.
No matter what
Please open up
Feel free and please tell me.

I wore your shirt home on Tuesday
1 am and the way the street lights danced across your skin
I'm not sure if I knew you then
I'm not sure if I could picture more than present tense between us
but the present felt so nice and I liked the way your hand fit in mine
maybe I knew the entire time I was never meant for someone like you
Sunday still took me by surprise
I think you taught me you can lose someone without feeling like you've lost yourself
I think you taught me I can care for a person without it being the end of me

The petals on your roses have long fell off.
I’ll be there to plant new seeds.
My flowers have decayed.
But yours will bloom.
I just hope we can share the same water
When even if I’m dying.
The stained red petals on your roses will bring me back to life.

Compassion, a gift
Though it's also a curse
How can I be idle
When I know you're hurt?
I shoulder your pain
And loan you my heart
Because when you're down
I have to do my part
But when its me on that stage
Feeling nothing but grief
I have this idle hope
As I grit my teeth
That you will be there
Offering your hand
But that hope's a lie
Because most can't withstand
This double edged sword
That few of us wield
I've been told that I'm a very compassionate person and that I have a huge heart. Compassion is something that's rare in this world. Very few people are truly compassionate in my eyes. It's a gift that can be a burden.

Perhaps I should try
Not caring for anything
Maybe I’ll be safe.

Broken phrases
Heap
like plastic
in our oceans

Words don't rhyme
Anymore
they're drifting further from the shore

Writing stops
abruptly.
Cause: writers block.
The words no longer flock
like birds

A heavy pen
ran out again
No ink
No colour
hands find another lover.

Sentences stay
incomplete
pushing us
towards defeat

We write
the words that discover
our lovers'
uncharted perks.

We're all just longer poems
that needed a little work.

I love listening to you.
In any way possible.
Whether it's big or small.
Sometimes I get lost in not just the words you speak.
But the actions that follow.
I hate interrupting.
Adding on to previous statements.
Until I know that your completely done.
Not wanting to make you feel unappreciated.

My hands following yours in the deepest form of flattery.

Open ended questions that lead to hour after hour of communication.
My fondness for you growing deeper and deeper.
At times I can't help but interrupt.

Our pauses taking a bit longer after each statement.
It's the anticipation that I want you to know.
That I am listening and take to heart what you are saying.
Stretching myself to cover every part of you.

Completely attentive excited that you'd consider my opinion.
To sit back and reflect without jumping to conclusion.
The one thing that I can do to improve myself.
To love you better.
To accept any and every change that may occur.

A safe place where we can do and say anything without being judged.
I love listening to you.
Specifically without interrupting.
Noticing how happy you are being heard.
With the intent of hearing what you are truly saying.
I appreciate you for truly understanding that if I do interrupt
It's truly the sole purpose of how much I care

What does it mean to have you as my best friend?
Does it mean that you really are the best?
Cause I'm always impressed
From east to west
From north to south
No one can compare how amazing of a friend you are

Supported me
Cared for me
Loved me
Trusted me
Understood my insecurities
Never complained
Criticized when needed to
But defended me in times of difficulties
Wiped my tears away
Your heart is on display
Cause you make my day

I want to hug you
I want to hold your hand and look into those sparkly eyes and say I'm happy I have you in my life
I want to show you my world
I want to give you happiness like no other
A prayer for you is my love for you
Everyday by your side I'll be your guardian angel
We will meet one day
That day will be mystical and magical
I'll show you what life really means
No sadness grief or hurt or depression will take over you
Cause your itself the source of happiness
Your love and mine together will change the world
I can't give you the whole world my dear
But I'll surely give you mine


Your not a person
Rather your an angel
Like an Aingeal
Destroys everything in its way
But moved with compassion and love
An angel without wings
An angel who protects me
An angel who fights for me
An angel whose heart is warmer than the sun rays
You are worth all the amaze
An angel God sent to be by my side
From the inside
We are unified

Your truly my twin flame
You deserve to be in the hall of fame
You not only melt my heart
But mould it and remove all the impurities
You are more important to me than anyone else
More than life itself you are my life
Nothing pleases me more apart from you
Spending time with you makes me realize time waits for you
The whole world stops when you smile
Cause when I look at your eyes I see life and beauty
God blessed me with you and I hope to cherish it forever

I see beauty in you
I see life in you
I see happiness in you
I see God working in you
I see compassion in you
I see kindness in you
I see intellect and wisdom unlike no other
I see love in you like no other

Your smile needs to be treasured
Even a thousand pictures cannot capture it  
Your heart needs to be loved
Even if it doesn't you are the definition of love
Your mind needs to be kept calm
Cause your sarcastic and kind thoughts are one of a kind
Your body needs to be passionately loved
Your body needs to be touched like no other
Not an ordinary touch but a touch which can spark your inner self
A touch and love which destroys the beasts inside you
A touch which releases you of all pain
A touch which gives you love like no other
A touch which connects and takes you to another world
You deserve all the love in this world

Words cannot describe how much you mean to me
Even if it takes forever I'll always be by your side
Cause dear you complete me
You comfort me
Thanking you is not enough
Giving you the whole world is not enough
Only my love for you
You are the reason for me being alive
You are my angel
You are my twin flame
You are most of all my best friend
For all of you who have best friends around the world <3
