demons don't leave under my bed they in my head

See what i mean?
                I am not what you think i am.
                       I am not over my past.
                I haven't overcome my flaws.
               I have not found my confidence.
      And i am not perfect at all and never will be.
   But with time I will maybe be what i wish i could be and that is perfect in my eyes, not haunted by my past and set  free by my thoughts.

i just wonder though, can someone hug you for long and tight that all the crushed bones are squashed back together.

MONET SITTING NEXT TO ME

You’re a work of art
Not as poised as a painting
Not as tangible as a sculpture
Not real enough to be a photograph
Not fake enough to be a drawing
The lines of your nose
The angles of your lip
The shadows of your collar bone
The wrinkles of your smile
The dots of your skin
The curvature of your teeth
The length of your limbs
The flow of your hair
But the words that fall off your tongue
The trickle of your laugh
To me
You are worthy of a museum

Fleeting Glance

A fleeting glance that changed our lives,
You with your dark hair,
Me with my bright eyes.

A helping hand that pushed us along,
Turned the lyrics,
Into a song.

You looked at me and my heart hit the floor,
And it seems to be,
That you opened a door,
The door to my heart,
For you held the key,
You held the key to set me free.

The first words I spoke,
I told you my name,
I was sure I would choke,
On my words, but they came.

Words cannot describe the way that I feel,
The way you turned my world around,
And made my head reel.

Whenever you look in my direction,
The joy on my face and yours is a reflection,
So finally my dear,
All I have to say,
Is I love you forever,
Forever and a day.
