i'll stay by your side no matter what
you can get deathly ill
or hate my existence
i'll still be here

i will always support you
from your hobbies
to your career
you'll get nothing but support from me

happiness is something you deserve
and i swear i will try my best
to make sure you're doing okay
and having a good day

i won't leave unless you say so
you're stuck with me
and i with you
we're in this together
Poetic T Mar 2019
In a world of noise,

            you were my silence.

And I just listened to you all day.
Jay Lewis Mar 2019
Spend a little longer
with me darling,
I'm missing your touch
your so charming.

Why does it have to be this way?
Why can't you just stay?

"Oh hi, hello poetry! You're safe and sound I see."
"On this odyssey, we're companions aren't we?"

"uh, yes I'm quite sure we've met!"
"When? Uh, from before I was dead."

"You mean to tell me you don't remember?"
"All the words we shared before life's ember?"

"Yes, yes I know you're old and sometimes forget."
"Sorry, didn't mean to scold, please don't be mad.

"I know I'm just one of your many friends,
the beauty on the uniqueness it depends!"

"You know what poetry, when I'll be long gone."
"I'm happy that with another you'll move on"

"Goodbye poetry, goodbye words of ours."
"Hello poetry, every letter amongst the stars"
First day on HelloPoetry and it made me realize that poetry is not something we have, but something we tap into.

It never takes much
I wonder what I could possibly do to impress her
She's plucking gold threads in the air
Bits of string she finds hanging all around her
When she's flying like that
When she's hanging like that
Even her feet trace above my head

When she's human
I feel sick
Because I feel lucky

You know those wraps on her wrists
She keeps them bound up for a reason
She needs the memory, but it's not for me

She's not like me
So distinctive, in all the ways she knows
In all the lines she's memorized
And in that saccharine emulsion
Still seeping from her
I hate the taste of it

Gently floating on the breeze
Walking across lilies
I wonder what I could possibly do
To impress her.

Where just *******
               on a fire
  that
        isn't even  lit

Expecting to keep
                        us warm
           with smoke choking
                      our resolutions.
