#dainty poems on Hello Poetry

Amy H Mar 2015

A butterfly is beautiful until you feel you're sly,
moving close to touch her wings,
and then she may not fly.
But on her feet is magic that makes one flower,
two....
Disturbing the dainty butterfly
Means fewer blooms for you.
Wonder, gently.

I wrote this poem inspired by experience. At the time I was reminded that my pop always used to say, "You can wonder and wonder, and you'll still never know." I realized how much we hurt others when we make assumptions.

*****

You;
you prey on pretty things.
Damaging innocent bows
and precious curls.
Dainty,
delicate,
*****.
You;
you ruin her.

Bits and pieces

I have parted ways with my body
Because my mind isn't present
My heart, a charcoal gray: foggy
Has little passion since our dissent

I wrote dainty letters for you
Romantic, lengthy confessions.
Every empty word- away each flew
Whilst wading daily in depression.

Softly my soul fades with my love.
A hollow hole cut deep in your heart-
By unkind hope: an olive branching dove--
Is the coal that fuels this hatred art.

This suffering manifests my mind.
Winds blustering my common sense,
And life muttering "Are you blind?"
My body is combusting in defense .

Revenge begs me to set you ablaze-
Compassion treads across this hell,
Speaks and heads into the insane,
Pulls me by the threads out of a spell.

I restrain from you- I am free -
I won't mention your infidelity.
Just make me feel not absentee.

I'm just done being unhappy.

Lots of thoughts- to be made into several different poems

diamond in the rough

you're a melancholic blue rock
who's oblivious to what you're parallel of

just a slight erosion I noticed,
as I picked up
the little crumbles
the gem stones
the tears

crystallizing under crushing pressure;
I know it's aching,
some time to tether
you're (spontaneously) combusting
but you're still as dainty as a feather

don't have to look at your reflection,
just your shadows
then you'll see you're illuminating
and now you know
you're more than enough
you were just
a diamond in the rough.

[to all who are crumbling]

Ohh, you

Ohh, you make me feel so dainty,
Such a gentleman of your part
I love the way you speak through your hand
As it covers your mouth cause you're laughing so hard
Ohh, you make me feel like rain
Such purity in your eyes and that special glance you have
As I wash away all of your worries
You let me breathe again
And rest in your acceptance
You understand what Love means and forgive me if I'm mistaken
Ohh, you make me be a better person
When you teach me how to speak
I surrender with your patience
And your sight stuck on me
Ohh, I love how you make me feel
Knowing you're so shy but with me everything's alright
And when we talk, the world goes slow
And every detail turns into laughter, smiles and joy
Ohh, I love how manly you are
Your habits and your love towards God
Sometimes you make me cry
Because I cannot find someone, who is better for me than you.
