I love you like a rom
Com movie
The clumsy bump
The spilt latte
The scramble of books
The accidental brushing
Of hands
And awkward stares
You're the missed train
A twist of fate
From friends to more
Than friends
You wrote your
Number on my coffee cup
And gave me a crooked smile
You're the meet cute
I'd never forget
Your the stranger I
Met by chance
The "who's that?"
When catching them glance
You're the light
In my darkness
The heart racing montage
the slow dance in
a ball room dream
You're the Romeo to my Juliet
The one cliche running
Through my head
The coffee shop
A rainy day
A kiss that chased all
My glooms away
The talking all night
Cos the worlds given up
Like every plot
Id never outgrow
It's just us in that scene
my favourite love trope
Come to show
But I guess that day
would have to wait as
I'm still finding the perfect
Guy for this perfect day
Cassandra Nov 5
Your shadow and mine,
far apart in space,
far apart in time

Waiting by the edge of birch
waiting by the edge of the world
waiting for fate to end our search
Are we really in the same physical space,  
Or is it just a dream I hold onto?  
Imagining you there across the field  
Of what feels like an eternity between you and me.

I listen, looking for the love within the lyrics,  
Always with the questions: why these artists, why these songs?  
I listen so I can find the thread  
To what you’re thinking, speaking without speaking,  
Touching without body. Knowing, feeling, resonating, imagining.

Springing to life in a world  
That only exists on threads strewn across the universe.  
Morse code of the soul, a green light in the bathroom,  
Detested by others, a bat signal that holds a space  
For love and remembrance.

The little things, writing in green ink because, well…  
You, you, you. You have a presence even in the physical impossibility.  
How can such a piercing gaze cross thresholds such as this?  
How can I know, feel, see, experience the world without you in it,  
Yet you are every part of it. Every inch.

You are a soft melody,  
The note on a piano that touches my heart until I’m brought to tears.  
You are the wind, the sun, and all the rays that bless the sky.  
You are perfection at its core, the graceful feathers of a hummingbird,  
Still and moving all at once.

You are ripples on the lake after a stone skipped  
With pure confidence reaches the other side.  
You are peace, steadying the soul in the worst of storms.  
You are love, a beautiful burst of rainbow hues  
Exploding in the sky for those with only true hearts with vision to see.

You are the deepest expression of beauty that I know.  
You are a gliding ballerina, mastering the movement of soft pink chiffon.  
You are the flowing water that fills my soul  
And gives me the power to move with clarity, grace,  
And just the right amount of pressure.

I see you in my mind’s eye, faceless, formless,  
Everything and nothing all at once.  
You are the humbling force in my life,  
My tether in this universe.  
You are beautiful, ever flowing.
For CBM of Dublin sent with a thousand kisses❤️

I miss you but I'm letting you go,
cause it won't work out and I can't hold on,
and I'm sure I will come across another,
and I will ask what gives her comfort and what's her favorite color, what's her favorite flower and what food makes her alive,
I will write her poems just like I used to,
and maybe she won’t like them but that’s ok,
maybe she won’t like to read and gaze at the grass,
sit by the sea for hours just to see the clouds,
but that’s ok she won’t have to be like you,
maybe her favorite color not blue,
and crying doesn’t give her comfort and sleep is her enemy,
and she doesn’t write the way you used to do,
maybe she will get seasick like me,
and just listen to music the same as I do,
maybe she won’t speak your language nor understand what it means,
but that's ok she won’t have to be like you,
maybe she won’t like tea as you used to,
and drink coffee as much as I do,
and it’s not compromising but rather idk,
maybe she won’t be like you,
but I hope I don’t see your face everywhere I go,
cause a friend told me it doesn’t have to be a single soulmate, maybe there’s a mate in another soul you meet,
and in every interaction lies a possibility of a different thee,,,
once i had a talk with a friend and she told me that it doesn't have to be a single soulmate, it came as a surprise as i never believed in soulmates, she told me to write about soulmates, and to me its harder than diving into my deepest thoughts, but that what i could come up with hope you like it,
I'll play guitar, you go to sleep
In the morning I will meet
Your eyes again,
But until then
My love, sleep well.

What is it about you?
You sparkle with gold
How is it that you make
  my heart sing so?
I breathe you in and feel peace,
  calm, tranquility
My heart is full of love and
  my soul is at peace
I have no need to know the future
I am completely intoxicated
  with here and now
You are my home, my sanctuary,
  my beloved hearts desire
        — Magi
A whisper... I, remember when

A roar... I, remember when

A sudden swirl of warmth and pain

Yes... I remember too

It’s you

It has always been you

I have searched forward and backward in time

It has always been you

I remember

I remember, joy, ecstasy, pain

Is it the pain we love?
YOU
Love touched my heart and I felt it’s warmth
It warmed a heart I had meant to keep cold but loving you felt different
When I write I never seem to have enough to say
How can I define it
Love might be complicated,sad,happy or anxious but more than anything love is you
A constellation of all these attributes
If space could tell our love story it would say the art of universal attraction made you a force in effect within my orbit

I bare my soul to you through these words
They might rarely rhyme but I hope these emotions and feelings resonate with you
Noticing you notice me
Love like a symphony
I’ve found my home
YOU the warmest embrace

There will never be enough words for you
Not because you’re not enough but because I love you
Without knowing how,when and from where
You are my inseparable lover embraced in the synergy of one with my entire self
Deep in our hearts where love begins,the language we’ve built together
You touched my life and soul and stole my heart
I might not know where I’m going where I’m supposed to be but you being in my life and me being in yours must mean something to me
That this was meant to be

The heart and mind may have different perspectives but being with you is one thing they’ve both seemed to agree on
That’s just the nature of being with you
You make all things make sense when they don’t
I’ve learnt to know that only you have the power to get my heart interrupting my thoughts before my mind could figure them out

You've made this poetic self live and write poetries that clasp the art of speaking truth
Each moment we together I've loved you more
And so I continue to love you even more than before
You're my sixth sense
Both in my heart and mind
My thoughts of you are in your dreams

This might not be a sonnet to a tearful lover
Divided into sestets and octaves
With 6 or 8 grouped lines
This is a piece of writing that speaks of the love i have for you
For loving you is easy
All I ever wished for
My past,present and future
Just like the memory I was born with.
Avery special poem for the love of my life - BO
There was a time  
when putting voice to
silent declarations  
unspoken longing  
you would have uttered my name  

And it would have danced  
along your strings
