But the boy told the girl,
“I will always protect you.”
And, for the first time,
She believed him.

The boy told the girl,
“You are special.”
And, for the first time,
She believed him.

The boy told the girl,
“Your soul is made of pure gold.”
And, for the first time,
She believed him.

The boy told the girl,
“I love you.”
And, for the first time,
She believed him.

You shimmer like a star
In the darkest night
So beautiful yet so far
A bright yellow light

I reach out to touch you
And baby you burn
A fire of majestic blue
Oh how my heart yearns

You lit up my skies
So lovely, so bright
A wonderful prize
A magnificent sight
For you, my love, my northern star

Me
I am the grey
That lives after the light
But before the dark

I am the twilight

I am the emotion you feel
When neither option is right

I am option three: Neutral

I am the scream of the teenage girl
next-door

Who knows what it really means

I am
Me

And it's hard but it seems like the best thing to do.  The past year has been so tough and things has change.  Another man has the prize that she tired to give me every day.  Being too blind to see and appreciate was there but of course we gotta learn the hard way.
And believe me I was too stubborn to realize.

I gotta..

Let her grow and live her life.  No more texting and random snapchat at night.  Changing my routines where I go in my neighborhood so the thoughts of "we" doesn't remind me of what we used to be. To experience life with a person like me.

I gotta let her go

And I never thought it would be so soon.  Maybe things would work out faster than what I expected but it went how I figured and must take it on the chin.  Like a man, respect her wishes and continued on without her.  It ***** but in this situation I gotta let go.

No need to cause a ruckus if she's happy where's she at.  I was that person for her but it was me that held back.

So I'll let her go

For the best and to let her live her life.
I did so much damage, why would she want to come back into my life.  It seems to reasonable and convient to come back this way.  

So I had to let her

Who knows..

Maybe she will come back or stay away.

In all honesty,
Seventeen syllables just
Can’t show all my love.
For her
Lydia Dec 2018
Am I angry?
Am I sad?
Am I am jealous?
Am I depressed?
That life could go from feeling so good to feeling like this?
I am all of these things.
I have wanted so much
and gotten so little
I have gotten so much
and wanted so little
I may never be really happy
I never thought I'd be this messy

Sometimes life hits me hard
And people treat me harsh
Leaving marks and scars
Other days my health tears me apart
My heart betrays my mind
And my ears listen
To the meaning hidden in words
And i know i have done some wrong
But i also know i have tried to be good
But somehow karma always hit me
But forget when its time
To pay a visit to those who hurt me
And i wonder do you even exist karma??
If you do, do you hate me too?
Do you enjoy my pain
Like the rest of the people in my life
Or are you playing favourites
And you dont like me much
You have visited me even for telling a lie
But you let the devil in my life
Torment me day and night
They told me that you were a *****
They forgot to tell me that you were never my *****
Dear karma
Am sorry if you dont like me
But please play fair and pay my devil a visit
Something i thought i should share today
Rose Who Knows Dec 2018
What is love?
She says she admires him
that he is everything that she looks for
But she knows she doesn't really know him
on a personal level.

How can you be in love with someone
that you haven't had one on one time with?

I guess in her case,
"like"
would be the better word to describe her feelings.

But who am I to judge what she is feeling?

Which makes me wonder,
was I really in love?
Just thinking about love and how you know you are in love.

Got lost and stopped by the grotto
struck deals with villains,
and though I'm in my feelings
kneeling and *******
I payed to be ripped off
cadences dip, lost the lotto

Watery graves appealing strange
the solution is lame
the parade's an insane path to follow
Radical urchin burden
grifting the current
mechanisms infected
luring fevers to wallow in, ad absurdum
fathom futility in survival
famine imbibes a stifled echo of revival
in my head

I'm just playing dead for my recital

better informed to the abhorrence I'm entitled

feathered in form alluring sword alarm from Michael

clever to wars imparted forcible and vital, to the era

but staring in awe before the cycle

Bearing a maw beneath the throes along the final.

Bury me after my heart
and guard informal notions of the lauded
if calluses lift the filthy and applaud it

whittle the simply to the too intense or lawless
for a history glistening through a rose of sickly fondness
I won't ask if you were listening to all this
but I must admit
I don't think I can trust you

to be honest...
This is actually kind of a rough draft, and something I may expand on later. There's a lot I cut and plan to add later with more specific wording, but I wanted to have at least the brief version up, in case I changed my mind about really drilling this out.

No beauty in this world exists
Can match your heart and soul
No prettier morning sunrise
Can match your stunning eyes
No more spectacular eclipse
Can match your sweet soft lips
There is no grandeur mountain peak
Can beat your great physique
No sexier evening sunset
Can match your perfect *******
Not even mom’s great homemade pies
Can beat your tasty thighs
There are no poems that can convey
No words that i can say
There simply is no scenic view
That can compare to you
No beauty in this world exists
Can match your heart and soul
My attempt to try and write the ultimate poem
