I've been to places unimaginable

I've fought beast on planes unfamiliar

killed demons within

walked on fields of glass

and waded through oceans of fire

only to not love you

but I still do.

Crispy, and yet thin,
its rough curves shatter and snap,
salty, fragile chips.

The sky glistens bright

The green grass slightly swaying

Both display beauty


The water shines clear

Causing thoughts to run wild

Reflecting nature


Piercing winds sound loud

Through the forest it does run

Chilling to the bone

v.
you, my dear, are cruel -
a cruel girl for a cruel world.
you'll laugh as they burn.

vi.
i tried to save you
from a monster. it turned out
the monster was you.

vii.
hunt us down. watch me:
i will pledge my heartblood oath
if it's in your name.

viii.
swallow the earth whole.
you're the titan among us.
none can stop you now.

The sun rises up
on the endless red skyline
with a song of hope.

Kissing the ground home
Writing haikus in the air
Long plane rides are done.

Time passes oh so
slowly. Tick-tock, goes the clock
on the big white wall.

your eyes are deeper than any poetry i've ever read.
i've tried to write them in six-word poems
but it can never quite capture their depth.
i've tried rhymes
and sonnets
and haikus
but i end up dreaming of them instead.

i'm lying on the roof
looking at the stars in the skies
and wish i were looking
at the ones in your eyes.
