Oh me, oh my, even when I try I lose it all, I've never understood why
Mind and heart ravaged but can't reciprocate, what happened to an eye for an eye?
You plead for a win, I beg for a tomorrow, abused by karma without ever meeting the guy
Every day I pray for one more opportunity to watch the sun traverse the sky
If this is not allowed then please, before any enforcement, explain to me why...

When you open your heart to someone new
You give them your all
Then it subdues
When you hope it will change
And the night will be bright
When you fear they’ll run away
And they stay by your side
When you know that they love you
But you can’t love them back
That is all I know of life
And I would want to retract

Love, he gave,
reciprocated not behave

His goals were colossal,
not as high as mine's mime

He made flowers coated in wine,
with fine strokes and time,
but,
he'd never felt I was lost,
bleary and unkind

in storms,
he ceaselessly heads to mold,
healthy vines...

No supply no fuel no liability
Not emotionally invested
No injury caused no moods
🦋no tears no control.💤💞
I'm ice cubed blank canvas.
Sometimes love is earned.
precioso passion fruit noni pie
No shame exist is writing poems dedicated to our loved one  
corresponding if love is the end.
Risk we take in the arena of love
But I know, I don't linger long
where I don't import or belong,
trust and divine true love.
Or for any rainy day or if
Missz fairy gone months
💞 returns love is earned🦋

i turn the volume up,
just like any other day,
"don't be wrong anymore,"
to his heart he says.
she's doing the same pep talk
somewhere out there,
swaying to the music,
i just couldn't care.

cause your words are lullabies
that puts me at ease,
and envelops my soul
against the cold breeze.
in the calmest mountains,
to you i melt,
through the wildest storms,
your fire is felt.

and for every time i doubt
and ask for a hint,
your love bursts in me
like a million soaked mints.
threading oceans for you
could never be wrong,
but if that's foolish,
i'll just sing to this song.
it won't stop falling

I did not stop loving you
I still do
I still love you
.
.
.
from afar.

In distance, you wouldn't reach
In ways, you couldn't imagine
In thoughts, you wouldn't understand.

If my priorities
Is to
Admire you
Embrace you
Hold you
Pull you
Nurture you
And strengthen you
To keep the soulful smile
Alive

Still
Will you think of
Creating space to
Push me..
Drag me..
Drain me..
Break me..
Or self absorb
?
?
?
For the best of each other
Won't you reciprocate?
Holding faith
Won't you behave the same?
Can you hold the breathe?

Sincerely yours
Universal love

Both of those two
That day brawled
Sworn about the tolls
"Reincarnation,
We both shall be boys next life!"
For then they could combat
And he,finally could hit 'she'
Who then be he
Pleased ,said she: I shall reciprocate thee
Laughed at it
Both rolled giggling arms in arms
Or heads on the beseated knees

How do I convince you to love me?
I can make you tea and cookies
Or maybe mac and cheese
I can learn a song for you when you're feeling blue
I can kiss your neck and whisper why I want to be with you
I can wash your sheets and make your room neat
I can make your favorite snack
And if I do these things for you
Will you love me back?

Lizard’s tail twitch,twist
Poor bug’s wings reciprocate;
The deal is done quick!
