I've lived an ordinary life
I have never accomplished anything grand
I havnt climbed a mountain or seen the northern lights
I've never discovered land untouched by man
I've never gotten to walk the great wall of China or seen the pyramids of Egypt.
But in those moments laying in your bed, feeling the way you body fills with air while you sleep in my arms I know what extraordinary feels like.
I've had the joy of gazing into your eyes in those moments before they close as our lips inch closer and closer with every beat of our entangled hearts.
I've gotten to see your smile illuminate an entire world.
My world became as bright as the sunflowers you held in the hands that I grasp in fear of letting you slip through my fingers.
Because of you Gabrielle my ordinary life has been touched by the extraordinary and I have felt love pounding in my chest praying it could soar across the sky. Writing you name across every cloud.
I have felt the magical wonder of beauty that refuses to stay quiet. Whispering your beauty to every star that has the audacity to try and outshine you.
And what more can the ordinary ask for than a touch of the extraordinary.

"who will love sad soul?"
she is just a broken poet
who writes bad poetry.

"who will like her poem?"
she uses her blood and tears
to write broken poem.

(deep down inside
she has known the answer)

will I be the star?
who will continue to shine,
even if my light is dim.

will I be the moon?
who will share the light with night,
even if no sun is existed.

will I shinning true?
am I the brightest true?
or I'm waiting for the time to explore?

but, I still believe one day,
I'll show my light is brighter than the sun
brighter than you've seen before.

I'm the moon
who's formed from debris.
without light of the sun,
I'm just a dark permanent natural satellite,
who give no light to people at night.

when all my hopes are broken,
it turns myself into blue
and I'm feeling heartbroken,
this feeling is so true.

listen to the mournful melody
and all the tunes mock at me,
say "I'm not belong to this
as I will worse them all."

tell the stars about my story
and I say do not worry.
as I will be fine,
when the sun starts to shine.

I will wait on the bridge,
waiting to see the last sunrise
and I'll go somewhere sombre,
so I will always be fine.

loving you just like 𝒔𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒐𝒏𝒔.

I walk into your garden,
all of the flowers are blooming,
butterflies come alive.
it's so breathtaking just your face,
wind kisses my face and makes my heart blooms
and it's the feeling of 𝒔𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈.

when we hit together,
I can feel your warm breath
just like sun in the summer,
kissing my skin.
I'm melting when I look into your eyes
and it's the feeling of 𝒔𝒖𝒎𝒎𝒆𝒓.

dried leaves fall everyday
just like my heart can't stop beating for you.
all I can see is brown and orange and yellow leaves.
even though I can't find the green leaves
but I still have you in my world
and it's the feeling of 𝒂𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒎𝒏.

it's cold outside,
but your smile warms my heart
and burns the heat of my body.
everything is white,
feeling cold wind blows towards us.
and yeah, it's the Christmas season.
the 𝒘𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓 season,
the season I walk into your winter wonderland.

the stone that I grabbed had broken,
and I had lost something which was priceless.
words that left in my mind unspoken,
and they said that I was heartless.

the stone couldn't be fixed again,
and I had lost my magical light.
everything was over as nothing could regain,
I regreted that I didn't hold it tight.

finding my hopes in the dark,
but no light to show me the way.
I wanted something which could spark,
but all the stones were far away.

the stone once was my star,
but now it becomes my scar.
