When I cried
You held me tight
When I screamed
You told me it would be alright
When I cut
You stitched my arm
When I took
You switched the pills so I wouldn’t do harm
When I punched
You held my hand
When I kept silent
You smiled because you’d understand.

i was looking outside,
at those empty roads,
which were busy a while ago,
it enjoys this,
so do i, no one else just you and the road.

i was hoping to see,
a plain dark sky,
sometimes it looked black
other times shades of other dark.
the usual.

but today was different,
today it had a tiny star on it,
gleaming, glowing, glaring
proudly.
i wanna see my star soon,
maybe be i will on an unexpected night.
just like tonight.
today i saw a star
rare
in this "urban", unconnected world.
irony? huhh.

Thank you for showing me
How to finally be free
For I know now
We were never a forever

Thank you for the lies
And for cutting ties
For I now know
How little I meant

Thank you for running far
You didn't deserve my heart
For I now know
I deserve better

Legends be told, and written in tomes of a creature which roams the residence of the family: Lee-
Through shrubs and trees, though silent and unseen, it seeks seeds-
Ones of fire. Ones of sweet.
The creature seen only when: upon them, it feeds, simultaneously.
Its form of a boar with a tongue of alchemy, ignites in a spectrum of brilliancy. Hovering eyes remain but for a moment and weep vehement tears; crystallizing with the essence of harvest.
This poem is a story about a certain fiery candy called "Tear Drops;" lovingly produced by an online vendor: CaliforniaBlazingChilieFarm. Please Check them out and enjoy, fellow Pepperheads

Your hands in mine,
Your breath on my skin,
I've never felt safe,
until the thoughts within,
Were all on you,
The promises you made,
The love that you shared,
The kiss that I saved,

So thank-you my dearest,
For the light that you have shone,
After everything you've said,
My worries are gone!

Thank you for daring to open your heart
to see with new eyes for peace.
To walk parting the veil,
so others can dance

Thank you for looking at your authentic self
to see the treasure within.
To move as the gift you are,
so others can expand.

Thank you so much
for being in this place
to celebrated this moment.
To look at these words
so  you align
with your soul that is love.
I resonated with the act of gratitude and this followed

Writing highly of you is almost becoming competitive.
Its must feel good reading poem after poem about how perfect you are.
I hope that mine live up to the standards that they have all set.
They all talk of how you radiate joy.
Of how your little actions mean the world.
They aren't wrong.
A smile from you leaves me longing for the sight of you all day.
A giggle, and my heart skips a beat, fluttering to the tune of your joy.
The melodic words that spill from your pen seem to be tattooed all over my body, running along my sides and up and down my arms until the strands of black ink meet on the spot above my heart.
The breathtaking collision of your kiss sends my fears and worries and little insecurities away to a far off place, never to be seen when your smile is in my thoughts .
it’s safe.
it’s bliss
it’s everything.

Thank you
this is for you. I know that a bunch of people have written about you lately, and you deserve every word they say. you truly are the best <3
Thank you
For the likes
The loves
The follows
And the comments
It motivates me to keep writing
Espacially when I really don’t want to

What I didn’t expect
Was all that I’ve received
In this amazing community
Of (mostly) appreciative artists
So again
Thank you
As a thank you to everyone, if you have any questions for me, feel free to comment or message me them. I’ll do my level best to answer all the questions! :)
I draw my poetry
From the depths of my despair
As many other poets do

Sadly I can’t draw them
From my highest of highs
Like other brilliant artists

To all poets
Thank you for sharing
Whether it be a shard of light
Or a wisp of darkness
It all takes power
To turn pain and happiness
Into art
