If you want
to capture a gypsy,
dance with her
beneath
the crystal moon.
There she cannot hide
behind her tricks and lies,
and if you gaze
lovingly
into her eyes,
and hold her heart
to the moonlit sky,
she will be yours
until the
end of time.

Lay beneath the willow
beside the waters edge,
and listen to her secrets
they are spoken in the wind.
Hannah Jan 2017
If you had
a beautiful girl
lying naked
in your bed,
would you
take advantage
of her innocence?
Or,
would you hold
her heart
in your hands,
and love her
the whole
night
through?

because i know that when i crawl into bed beside you as sleep soundly takes over you, the warmth that i feel with my body pressed against yours feels like home, and i know that this is where i want to be for forever
by your side, the warmth, the love, i know i can find nowhere else

it may have been so crass of me
but i decided that no one who is not you
wasn't worth my time
i have no time for others to spend
you are my only one until the end

all of this poetry i have for you and us inside of my head

while you only have whispers and meaningless stutters

who loves whom ‘more’?

Reading books, drinking tea,
Trapped in it's own hypothesis
Yes, that's me.

Manacled hearts, wrangled thoughts.
Trapped in the past.
When I shouldn't be.

Torn apart by destiny,
A love that can never be.
Fought so hard for the
said love.
But then again, failed.
For it was never meant.

All bruised and wounded.
Still wouldn't give up.
Whatever may happen,
They will change together.
The different destiny,
They were given, forever.
It is always worth the fight if you're with the right person.

Once, when I looked at you.
I thought, we could push through.
You & I together,
We'll make a difference forever.

But then, my smile fainted.
Remembered what you wanted.
You wanted different.
You wanted moon.
You wanted stars.
Things that I cannot be.

For I belong in the sea.
A thing you cannot be.
A thing *you wished you
wouldn't be.
Just be you. Do not change for anyone. Unless if it's a good change.
Chloe M Teng Dec 2016
I drank in the starry sky
before me, like I've
always owned it,
Like I've always owned you.
