i knew that i was in love when it broke my heart to see you hurt
i knew that i was in love when it killed me inside to watch you waste away your life
i know that i am in love with you,
because love still remains
despite all of your bad parts
i feel like my ex is an alcoholic and all i could do was sit there and watch him down his potential....

Knowing you will never be there to catch me
I still fell hard.
Julia Mae Sep 2016
i want to start something new
with you i was childish and a fool
yet i can't deny that that was ever me
so honest and fragile but never truly free
clung onto you too tightly for security and peace
i feel a change of pace
that i don't have to remain that way
but oh god, on some days
on some days ...
i'd give anything to be that me again
i'd give anything to be that madly in love with you again
giving up on love, will that make me better?

You become my words,
When I became speechless.
You became my sunshine,
When I drowned in darkness.
You became my inspiration,
To wake up and live my dream.
You became my reason,
My pride, treasure and esteem.
You my darling, became my Kanna,
My strength, love and best friend.
You and I are now not two, but one,
Together, forever, beyond every end.
I wrote this poem for my best friend to whom I got engaged to on Tuesday, June 14th 2016. This poem in its simplest form, defines our union thus far and I wrote it to announce our engagement to the world. *Kanna* is the name I call my fiance by, which in Tamil refers to the Lord Krishna, also referred to as the one who stole my heart, dear to my heart and beloved one.

You are kind and gentle and sweet,
your voice, my favorite melody,
your soft dark eyes, my weakness,
your smile makes me sheepish.
Who would've though it would take so little?
A glance, a smile, a joke, a laugh,
and there it was;
that warmth in my chest,
that glow to my cheeks,
that sparkle in my eyes,
and color flowed into my world like tears I would never cry,
because you,
are my kinda guy.

*finger guns
I never had any clue a convention would lead me to love. Thank you.

I wanna be boring with you
I wanna be in the corner at a party with you
I wanna not even accept the invitation
I wanna be spooky
I wanna be shadey
I want people to wonder about us because we give them nothing
I just want to be the only one you care enough to let in
So deeply inside and invested in all your life and what you have to offer
and what you're capable of contributing to the world
I want to be the one that gets you and understands the ******* craziness and unexplainable
cuz let's face it a lot of life is
I want to be the one you look back on photos with
I want us to be in those photos from beginning to end of everything
I wanna be boring to everyone but the only ******* thing that makes sense to you
I wrote this while being high and not having seen you for half a year. I still love you so much.

Heavenly land with romantic angels linger on my mind,
corrupting my senses not to return to the green land.

Oh the milky white mountains, milky white pathway, milky white clouds covering all my view as though kissing each other
Don't know where to draw the line

In this heaven i do not understand where do i stand
on the clouds or on the land

There, I met you,
Where I had the familiar sense,
that I have met you,
somewhere around the fence.

There, I saw you,
looking at me already,
that I heard you
doing all the makeovers ready.

There, I felt you
in me, that I fell in no second.
I want to live with you
my rest of my life in seconds.

There, I held you,
that the world turned upside-down.
Now that I get you,
for my lifetime, to find no clown.

Red eyes no bullseye,
high off our mark,
distracted by addictions,
it’s apparent from our scars,

scars,
lit,
far,
in,
tense,
don’t know where the day went,
intense so I escape in a tent,
camp out just to lamp out without any ill intent.

Since when,

did our past define us,
our destiny we manifest,
sometimes we have to remind us,
that we angels were Heaven sent,

that scent,
mixes with the wind,
sea breeze and coconut knees,
I’m ready when you are just say when,

since when,
were names so appropriate,
Scarlet’s a darling far from a harlot,
actually she’s abstaining,

since when,
were you so absent from class that,
you forgot the facts that,
all women are divine even when abstinent,

honestly,
I’d rather be,
laying in this hammock with a Goddess that’s abstinent,
than rubbing,
when clubbing,
wasting time with a drunken **** that will soon be a has been,

not even a faction,
not even a fact,
I want the real artist,
I don’t want a bad act,

I want laughter,
I want rushes,
and with her we get all that,
it all comes in bunches,

her inner instinct is distinct,
and much more than just what a hunch is,

what’s for lunch kid?

Let’s have a pic-nic this instant and then get down to business,
actually let’s scrap the deal and forget all about business,

let’s get up let’s get up let’s get up and ride like the wind,
let’s let God be our witness,

we’re in this,
no limits,
no gimmicks,
no scrimmage,
no sewage,
no sadness,
no losers,
so tragic,
the truth is,
abusers,
abuse but,
their tactics are madness,
so when they step,
we make them back track with,
apologies “So sorry please,
I didn’t mean to try to take,
all of your Light Energy.”,
ok I accept their pleas,
then tell the fickle fleas “Peace,
I think it’s time for you all to flee.”,

And their gone,
along the whispers in the wind,
and we’re in the hammock again,
Scarlet and I off the mark and still high,
gone like the wind our world continues to spin,
distracted by our addictions,
which is apparent from the scars we wear on the body we’re currently in,

with red eyes,
no bullseye,
no bullSh!t,
just true facts,

think about the best thing you could ever do in your life,
and rest assured we’ve done are doing or will do that.

All true in other words,
all true facts,

from Venus to Mars with,
a darling named Scarlet,
she leaves a print on my soul,
no crayon or marker,

no mark,
no start,
no finish,
no gimmicks,
just this,
life we live that we live to the limit,

with words that are all true,
in other words all true facts.

Vague,
yet exact,
we rush forward,
then step back,
heartbeats and feelings,
all part of our lives’ soundtrack,

Sounds rap,
upon the windows of my soul,
in the form of the flicker in her eyes,
which is a response to the moon’s glow,

and it is then that I know,

that she is a magical creature,
that I could write about on pages for ages,
but then I feel her beauty is so pure,
that I don’t even wish to display it on literary stages,

so I just stop writing,
and give one last look at her by candlelight,
I give thanks for her in this moment,
then I finish my rhyme and go outside into the tropical moon night…

Can we watch the sunset from your house? Just from your backyard or even from your bedroom window.
I just want to see the two greatest things in my world together at the same time...

If not the sunset, I'll wake up for the sunrise while you sleep. It wouldn't be the first time.
I slip out from under the covers and smile as the room fills with colours...
The most beautiful colours
And all I can think about you and the feeling of waking up next to you.

If not the sunrise,
If not the sunset,
I'll settle for just looking at you while you drive,
While you work,
While you just sit there.
It doesn't matter what else I'm looking at..
If you're there,
It's the most perfect place ever.
