#theone poems on Hello Poetry

BW Mar 2018

I took out my heart, piece by piece
from the bin and you stuck it back
fractured, cello taped, but back in one piece
And I wore it carefully on my sleeve for
them to see you were there for me.

Then it became toxic, what was cute turned into
poison. You grew sick. And I frantically
annoyed you harder, desperate
not to show what fear was driving me.

My naivety, my vain, my egos and my tears
I didn't know whether you liked them
Probably not,
Probably I promised too much to be kept up
All I know is I wouldn't show them to anyone
else, I put a wall for everyone but you to find out
I was a child and you were the plushie
ripped from me, then apart.

I was your Kitty but I am a stray cat without
a home. How can you be a stray cat with all
your diamonds and pearls? They ask.
YSL Black *****. Tiffany Collars. Cartier Bracelets.
I would give them all up.
A kitty will always be a stray cat, when without your love as her armor.

London Street

A greeting with no words spoken.
My longed-for thunderstruck moment.
The question that doesn’t need asking,
Where to go, where to go?

A passion that sends me reeling.
Too scared to love, but too scared to leave.
The look that leaves me knowing,
Where to go, where to go.

one

the one that caught your look
the one that heard the roses like you
the one that smelt like a antique book
the one that ****** you right off
the one that made you want to take your clothes off
the one that made your nerves feel electric

the one that tasted like love,
but was never fully digested.

the heartbreakers
and the still waiters.

for hope is still about,
waiting while they have some doubt.

cyan

In a spoonful of colours I dove
With a lust for the sacred one
Do you know how it feels?
I do.
You would love it too..
..feeling blue

They say

They call me heart breaker
But you will never know
How my heart flipped, footsteps shaking
When I saw your back
Roses. Monograms. Black Umbrella.
Warming my hands on rain-washed streets
Canal lined with silver
Cosy bistrot, and how you lit my soul up

They say my heart is broken and gone
But you will never know
How long I wanted it to last
Luscious, wanton, bodies entwined
Chest against cheek, your heart beat fast
Burying my blush in your plushie
Grinning from the bottom of my heart

They say I am cold and merciless
But you will never know
How a girl with a brain as cool as ice
Red lips. Feline eyes. Velvet dress.
But I skipped all the lords and Barons
and accidentally left the rest of my life
tucked in a condo, me in your arms
on a cold January night

to Nicholas. the love of my life

22

twenty-two
taught me to never
Abandon.
like my father

it taught me that it is not
Blind.
like my mother

it taught me it is to
Carry.
like any other burden

it taught us to
Dance. for
Eternity...

that life can be
Filled. with
Genuine.
Happiness.

we are barely twenty.
yet it was, is, will be
Infinite.

Love taught me how to love.

She asked "why me?"

Because you're the one I've been waiting for. The strongest, outspoken, funny, gorgeous woman I've ever met.

There's just not enough words I can use to describe how you make me feel, let alone how I feel about you.

I won't lie to you and say I can't live without you but I can honestly say with each passing moment of my life I look forward to our next encounter.

I love how amazing you are by just being who you are, you don't pretend to be anything else because you know your true self is a gift to this world.

A person with heart problems would have died by know if their heart was beating as fast as mine within your presence.

Do I love you? I believe so Yes. Whether you choose to believe me or not, you made my day everyday each time I saw you, even when it was just for a brief moment regardless of whether we speak to each other or not, just the fact that I saw you was enough to shed light on my day.

I want you to be a part of my life, I can't promise you a smooth sailing ride to happily ever after but I can promise you Loyalty, Respect, Support, Kindness, Humour and most Love.

The one? (Err, can't think of a title)

Would you be the one
To end all the “what ifs”
And all uncertainties?

Would you be the one
To stay on the shore
Amidst the waves of storms?

Would you be the one
To dye my hair
When we get old and grey?

Would you be the one
To call me baby
Even when we reach ninety?

Would you be the one
To pull my wheelchair
When I can’t walk straight?

Would you be the one
To defy the gravity
To steal the stars in the galaxy?

Would you be the one
To prove the world and persist
That forever exists?

Would you be the one?
Would you be the answer
If I was the question?

Long ago in my drafts. Finally decided to end it this way. Gone into a vacation and I feel like I have a lot to say, but no words would come out, ughhh.
