I shoot higher
After every fall
Like an Indian
Rubber ball
Strawberry Aster Feb 2016
My sweet Valentine --
loved me wild
and loved me
recklessly;

took my
happy fragile heart;
and held it
really high;

dropped it --
like china;
admiring the glitter of my --
now shattered, scattered heart~
He wants to say I love you
But keeps it to good night
Because love will mean falling
And she's afraid of heights.
Some things are better left unsaid.

You blew my Heart away
And a hundred poems my way
It's 11:59 and you're on my mind;
But that's the norm, no matter what the time.
You're the only thing on my mind, basically.

moonlight tale

Here goes the little bird
The little bird with wings of rainbow
Tweeting behind my window
Not a care in the world
How I wish I'm the little bird
I'd free all my cares to the wind
I'd twirp and chirp till I'm rid of my sorrow
Yes, tell me. What is worse:
The devil you don't know or the devil you do?
I feel like I'm on hard times in finding myself.
Tell me, can you still break a heart once it stops beating?
Food for thought.
Giving someone everything even if you get nothing in return.
Funny how it feels like love is so unfair.
