But she was as quiet and fragile

like a flower pedal

whispering through the trees

melting like snow on a hot day

but she will never be broken

strong like a bolder

Smart as a scientist

and beautiful like a

        flower

I'm a woman
I can shout
I can scream
Without a doubt
I'm soft
And sweet
Emotions galore
Can't be beat
I see all
I feel more
I'm smart
I keep score
I remember
I try to forget
About that day
We never met
I hear all
I see your heart
And I wanted it
From the start
I am broken
I am confused
I've been beaten
Abandoned and used
I'll get tough
I'll stay strong
and never forget
That you were wrong

"I'm a weak tower in a flat field,
battling the elements
without a single tree to protect me!"

"Well, maybe you should've
planted more seeds"
I may not be Chinese or Hebrew,
but I can make a proverb.

She was unmistakably clever,
People strolling past her on the street
would ponder to themselves briefly,
She must be a professor or a lawyer.
But it wasn't her round glasses,
Or her fitted blazer that convinced them.
It was her yellow shoes,
and the way they seemed to float
above the stained pavement.

My heart thrives to be strong
but it’s simply just too hard.
It’s living a life of its own,
feeling as if its lonely in the dark.

No other soul to share its feelings with
so instead it sits and watches from a far.

It may feel lonely at times
but my heart’s pretty smart

it has a censor of its own
that goes past your disguise

as it watches from a far
it picks out all of your lies
tries to figure you out inside.

so next time you try to play me
remember that my heart
has seen and done it all
while it was thriving to be strong

him
He is so very smart for such a young man.....
Always saying a kind word to me whenever he can..
Always a sweet text almost each day when I awake....
Reminds me of the things you did for me.....I wonder if it was real or just REAL FAKE!!!
I enjoy talking to him cuz I am always alone.....
Wanting you back but you you erased my number from your phone.
He can't replace you not that he tries.......
He just enjoys talking to me and in silence my heart silently cries.
I want you but you won't let me love you even though it's not fair the way it went out all went down and ended.

I could never be a poet,
I don't seem to have a way with words.
They don't flow like a river...
Or come to me on a breeze...
I just stumble upon them,
Purely by mistake.

I could never be a poet,
Because my work is just for me.
Call me selfish...or stupid...
To both I would agree,
Because I seem to spout stupidity,
And I keep it all to me...

I could never be a poet,
My words are not beautiful nor smart,
So I look to you in awe,
Your words drifting along,
Fitting together perfectly...
Because you, my friend, are a Poet.
