#ilovehim
can you tell me with your lips how your eyes perceive me?
do you see me as an intricate basket with colorful beads?
done so by ancient hands so expertly weaved?
can you tell me the secrets of the soil that clasps the roots of the trees?
can you tell me all the names and whispers you hear in the breeze?
can you tell me how you always know the ice is thick enough to walk on after the winter's fourth freeze?
can you tell me how your eyes always know how to find me through a drunken crowd?
even through all the smoke from the hundreds of people creating this dust cloud
can you tell me how you always know when I'm saying things out loud?
even when the music is blaring
and the bartenders can't read the words people have mouthed
and say "sorry, if you want a drink you'll need to shout"
can you tell me why you smile when I lean out the window as you drive over and over again circling this roundabout?
Can you tell me how you've always known the tone of my breath and the song of my soul?
Can you tell me why somedays it feels like our first time meeting at a school dance back in the days of old?
Can you see us standing at the table with the snacks and the spiked fruit punch bowl?
Can you see me trying to catch the words of this song in whole? they're playing this new type of music, "have you heard it before? you ask me, they call it rock'n'roll"
Can you tell me you'll walk me home? hold my hand like it's the first time and forget I live just three houses past the big light pole?
Can we keep talking and maybe kiss at the end of this stroll?
"Can you tell me something about you?" I ask because knowing you deeper is a different type of beauty to behold
I smile as you tell me "I always loved when my aunt would make her thanksgiving broccoli and cheddar casserole"
Can you tell me how with you nothing feels like sin
even when your lips trace over every inch of my skin?
Can you tell me how you know to always lift my chin
to look you in the eyes even when the woes wear on me from where I've been?
Can you tell me how you felt about me when you watched me order a cocktail with my favorite gin?
but now Can I tell you how long I've I loved you? it's actually long before I even knew our time together would begin

I love you
I will always love you
I will love you until I die
And if there is life after that
I will love you still.

I knew a girl once...
Who is she? You'll see
I knew a girl once,
She was just like you or me
She never knew what was going on,
Didn't know how to act or to be.
I knew a girl once,
She was always really scared, unsure
Even though she tried her hardest
She was so insecure.
I knew a girl once,
She hated her appearance
She questioned every little thing
And wondered if people would care about her disappearance
I knew a girl once,
She was in a bad place
But then she got closer to you, and whenever you talked
It put a smile on her face
I knew a girl once,
Who waited by the phone
She texted you until three am
And suddenly she didnt feel so alone
I knew a girl once,
You helped her so much, you'll never know
Your kindness, your humour
As a person, it helped her grow
I knew a girl once,
Who came out of her shell
Now she can smile without trouble
And all is finally well
I knew a girl once...
Now shes Happy and Free
I knew a girl once,
And that girl is me.

You're my energy,
with which I let myself be happy.
You're my sleep,
with which I can let myself be at ease.
Your presence makes me feel glossy,
Your absence finds me gloomy.
With you,
My ugliest version is perfect.
But
Without you,
My perfection is imperfect.
It is just that,
With all the time,
I have been with you,
You've entered all my senses,
Giving all your happiness to me,
You've made me know,
We can weep and smile together.
You mean still more to me. ❤️

Your an anomaly
A walking contradiction
Your words are Venus and your actions are Mars
You say you wanna be my ***** but then get back with you ex *****
***** what the ****
You ignore my texts all day but I don't sweat it, but then you go and say" we need to spend some time together I really really miss you I might tear up when I see you"
***** what the ****
You say we never link, but then when I plan some you say " I might "
***** what the ****
I'm tryna see who you got fooled me or the other *****
She thinks shes getting a promise ring, but
You say "she's just something to do when there's nothing to do" only promises you got are broken one, lies.
***** what the ****
Update: No longer bestfriends just complicated as ****

I don’t know when this all happened
I didn’t know I wasn’t truly being me
Apparently it’s been going on for awhile
Or maybe I always knew subconsciously
I don’t know why after all this time
I still get butterflies when I look at you
At first glance that sounds cute and charming
But it’s preventing me from doing what I want to do
I often compare myself to other girls
who would never possess a piteous trait
Constantly beating myself up inside
Knowing I’m the reason we can’t date
What I long for isn’t a relationship
It’s knowing that our souls are entwined
You know me like the back of your hand
And I know you like the back of mine

Ever wondered what it's like,
To be the silver lining to my cloud,
Amidst the cold winter's howls,
To lock eyes with your sweet brown eyes,
Feel their warmth
As they wrap around you like a blanket,
Engulfing you in their safety.
To be the only elixir of love,
That mimics the joy of the sun.
Good morning my sunshine;
The love of my life.

Born into a world,
A place where the nothing was my everything.
Dreaming away a dead life,
Doomed to the broken design.
Goes by a little stretch of eternity;
More than meets the eye,
the soul catches a glimpse of another,
Looks once more to find it's its other.
Resurrected at the sound of a halo,
The bits of familiarity in the universe of peculiarity,
Resonates across the hollow.
Once more allowed to a spark of happiness,
Sweeter than any childhood dream,
Euphoria is no longer a distant memory.
A halo full of fire,
The nothing expires,
Burns to the deepest ground
Scared of the fall,
Dreading I shall crawl,
I touch the ground,
And I lay in awe.
All I feel,
Is the highest of peaks.
Endlessly hungered for this love,
Bitten by rust,
Floating in the clusters of mistrust.
Now nothing obstructs,
The mixing of two frigid souls like mist,
The flows of the river of pure bliss,
Fueling the fire of every kiss.
Now I press my head against my pillow in rest,
Knowing mornings shall be the inhales of
Musk and spices off your chest,
In our little mosaic of truest love.
Seeps into my bones,
All the silver and gold,
Lingers For as long as time can hold.
Flaunting this treasury,
The you in me.

It's been 1 year, 3 months & 1 day
And our paths have finally crossed again
I'm speechless without knowing what to say
But I know I don't want this feeling to end
One day we laid together in your bed
And that's when you closed your eyes
In that moment no words were said
Yet I had to hold in all of my overdue cries
I smiled as I looked at your face
And I felt so relieved and complete
That I finally had to no longer chase
The boy I was so desperate to remeet
Rather than crying I chose to lay
Next to my favorite person ever
I held him close, eager to relish this day
I swear nothing has ever felt better

All my life I have wanted to be him
the one who was there
the one who can go fast
so fast
it was him
only him

Hello
you don't know me
but I'm the girl on the other end of his phone.
The one nervously waiting for him to text me that he's back home
saying that he had a good time but was glad to be in bed.
I'm the one who holds him when he has a bad day
the one who reassures him that I'll always love him
the one who fell head over heels for him
for his weird quirky dorky nerdy self.
That's me.
Please don't take him away from me,
please.
Signed,
Me

Your bright blue eyes,
Shined bright in the midnight sky.
I could feel your heart beat as I lay on your chest,
Not knowing what would happen next.
You sit up, run your fingers through my hair,
And gave me a sensational kiss, and said you loved me
I knew then that you really did care.
I forgot about all my previous scars,
As we continued to look at the stars.
I thought I knew what love was before,
But now I realize,
There was something else in store.

His name burns when I write it, and feels heavy when I speak it.
Yet, he conducts my heart to beat the loudest.
I'll go to my grave thinking he deserves firework eyes over dinner tables and hands that hold, rather than shake.
I love him too much to let him think for one solitary second that I could ever live without him.
I fell in love with the way his hands fell around my neck,
forever leaving my breath staggering.
I will forever think of him when the sea is still
and the only light is the moon,
because with him, everything in the world stood still,
and even in my darkest moments
he was my light.

I love you.
And I don't mean I love you like I love
my favorite music.
And I don't mean I love you like I love
long car rides.
And I don't mean I love you like I love
breakfast food.
And I don't mean I love you like I love
sleeping in.
And I don't mean I love you like I love
brown eyes.
And I don't mean I love you like I love
my pets.
And I don't mean I love you like I love
coffee.
I am deeply and hopelessly in love with you.
I love you with a love that consumes me and controls my entire life.
I love you.

I loved him
because I couldn't love myself,
I loved him
because he was showing me how to love me,
I loved him,
because he knew the me no one else could see,
I loved him
because he saw me, for me, and no one else's reflection
I loved him
because he pulled me out into the sunshine I was missing out on,
I loved him
because he watches me recover and helps me get though,
I loved him
because he remembered my eyes were brown and not blue,
I loved him
because his hair was the long hair I didn't have,
I loved him
because I played with the hair while I sobbed on his shoulders,
I loved him
because I cried and he comforted me, when I upset him and me,
I loved him
because he never got angry with me
I loved him
because he never threatened me for ****** needs,
I loved him
because he took things at my pace,
I loved him,
because he never raised his open or closed hand,
I love him,
because I feel safe.

I like your skin.
The temperature is different
Than mine.
Warm
In you
I see
An extension
Of myself
A part of my being
In another form
Standing
Opposite me
I adore you
Every inch
And curve
Every thought
We are different
And the same
Equals
Shared spirits

I called you last night, told you my struggles
You were so kind, I wish you were there to cuddle
What am I saying my heart has already be taken by another
But I love I just don't know if it's like a brother
I can count on you day and night
I see you all the time, but I'm not sick of your sight
I know you have feelings for a girl
But she's not your girl, I'll be your girl

Sometimes I lay on my bed and stare out my window.
I wonder what you're doing
I wonder if you ever think of me...
Of us.
You are so good at pretending...
But me; not so much.
Whenever I see you.
Or say your name
My heart jumps and my stomach flutters.
Whenever I think of you
I relive all the times we've talked,
Touched...
Kissed.
I hate to admit it but I miss it.
I miss sneaking out with you and running away to the park.
I miss laying in your arms as we stared into the stars.
I miss...February. And March. And July. And August.
That's the truth.
I miss when we had something...
Even if that something was hardly anything to you...
It was everything to me.
April, May and June...
When we became nothing...
When that something we had was just a dream for you
And a bitter sweet reality for me...
When we became strangers...
Life hurt.
My eyes grew tired
And my face began to wash away the smile I had painted on.
You were once the reason I stopped cutting...
And why I was happy.
Then you became just another reason for me to hack away at my skin again.
I don't think you realize how much you broke me.
But then again maybe you didn't...
Maybe you just helped me...
Sometimes...I lay on my bed and think of you.
Sometimes...I let the sunlight that shines through my window dance along my forearm.
Sometimes...I can still make out the scars.
And that's when it comes to my mind.
And I wonder...
Does he even think about me...about what we used to be?
Does it ever come to his mind, like it sometimes comes to mine?
