Daisy flower scented for days
I'll pick you this day
& adore you for days
Your countenance poises celestial
Plaining contours from troubled faces
Regard it in awe
O ye searching men
Feel its serene impression
Piercing trails through each grain
That lies glaze over every staring eye
Fondling pupils taut
In caresses overwhelming
Mellowing all rugged souls tame
Biting every heart's lip
In kissy scenes elating

Daisy flower hear me today
Your company I've longed for everyday,
Won't you be mine all my days? 🙃
To the woman I never got, to the heart I never won

you're like a ray of sunshine
a beam that steadies my heart 'til I'm fine
a someone that always holds me on line
in my head, you are mine

although i **** you so often
you always make my heart soften
still, i can't tell you this, i said again
so I'm just gonna write my feelings out with a pen
it ***** when you can't say your own feelings, right?

As the rain drops fell on my face,
I felt my inhibitions slipping away.
The world was finding new paths to trace,
While I was regretting and cursing the day.

The drops soon turned to a rivulet,
My mind was trapped in a mesh,
The rivulet flowed seamlessly without any regret,
I was losing this game of  chess.

As I looked around I found I was standing on a pool,
I deftly played my master stroke,
I had finally proved that I was no longer an infatuated fool.
The final clash and all the shackles effortlessly broke..

Since the first time I saw you, I was changed. I wanted better for everyone, I wanted better for me. A story I've told a million times. The story that could never be rewritten. A tale so vivid, I have no doubts it was real. My reality was changed because of you. And now the story continues, with a new path I must follow.

Time has frozen. Time is finished. Time has started. Time could never defeat me, it only holds back the inevitable. So I will prosper knowing time is neither a foe nor an ally. You taught me that. I'm thankful for that revelation.

People come and they will sometimes leave. It's a concept as concrete and old as the human race. I met you for a reason and a season. And you opened my eyes into a world that was once forgotten about. I had the world grasped within my left hand, and your hand held onto my right hand. It felt like nothing could stop me. Until you let go of my hand, and the world dissipated from my grasps. I had seen a place of power, I hope never to go to again. You showed me the worst of humanity's best.

From the first day we met, my reaction could only be called deep infatuation. It means I wanted you, but I truly wanted to Love you like nobody has before. You filled every thought of mine, you and I were close. Closer than close. You were everything I've ever wanted, I could never truly describe how I felt about you. You taught me lessons about different personalities. And how the world can never be simple. It can never be clear. It will always be a mystery. Your Love will always be a mysterious force, that only the strong can harness. For your beauty could conquer a galaxy.

it escapes me
how you can patch me up
so quickly
with one word
a promise
and I'm blissful again

i write my words laced with love
but i have never even tasted it
and never have ever felt its flavour
glide against my tongue
and on the surface of my lips
never once held such in my hands
or even felt it graze upon my fingertips
but there are few instances
in which i thought it was love
as sweet and raw as it was
but it was no more than the sliminess of infatuation
and the bitter coldness of a crush.

I dreamed a dream,
It was beautiful and serene,
It spun me off my feet,
With kisses that tasted so sweet,

But in this dream,
A shadow lurked about,
For I was spun so dizzy,
So dazed that I could not see,

My mind knew what my heart denied,
Still, I followed my heart through and through,
I ventured into a fantasy,
And continued to dance, a bit clumsily.

But as the music intensified,
I sensed the shadow only stronger,
So I turned up the song even louder,
And danced the dance even faster,

But soon my feet grew tired,
And I could hear scratches in our song,
The shadow creeped up and stared,
As my dream became a nightmare,

In this nightmare, I shook all over,
With fear, I clutched onto a fading light,
I wanted to believe this dream could be real,
I wanted to dance with him forever,

But deep down, I probably always knew
That the dream was only a dream,
That one day, I would need to awake,
And face this shadow that was always there,

All I wanted was to dance with him forever,
And if he had danced just as hard,
I would have belonged with him forever,
But alone, my heart grew tired,

Alone, I had to endure this nightmare,
Alone, I listened to the scratches,
Alone, I stared back into this shadow,
Alone, I opened my eyes to see clear,

I listened with my heart,
I felt with my soul,
The aches in my body,
The tears that would not hold,

The shadow wasn’t a nightmare,
But a reality tucked away,
My heart finally gave up,
As my mind started to speak,

“It is a beautiful dream,
But it isn’t for me”,

I wanted to dance with him forever,
But now with him, it’s all over.

After so long
I let my heart bleed out
on my sleeve
on my tongue.
And you countered with reason,
left me pale,
as my life blood spilt
and pooled
so deep I drowned.
You flayed my psyche.
Left my intentions bare
for me to see.
Was this love?
I had just grown wings
and you tore them from my flesh
in seconds.
And I fell from a cloud,
back into my shallow grave,
buried in closure.

'twas March, I saw you first
in your slender demeanour
mute shine on your lips, adorn
Silent when I moved across
just behind, in queue.. to you
Introduced hath an acquaintance
the gentle vibes about you
the poems that you hadn't yet writ
the pen that had yet not wrote
It was similarities, I had seen
flowers that graced your wall;
Striking carnage in my mind
dissimilating my being,
And, finally in triumph, declared
yourself, I _ an adversary
Oh, but why, an adversary?
Since we could decide on
being likeminded friends

without these ragged edges
overlapped colors
smudged painting

without my touch
