#lovebirds
I was glad when
they said to me
"let us go
to the house
of the Lord."
That's the only time
I can look in Anike's eyes
without cowering,
and say "I love you"
when the priest says
to tell our neighbor so.

On an autumn walk at the ides of day
I saw birds of a feather fly together away.
As they flew over flames
In an ides-of-day way
They got caught in the weather
And so forever became
The tall twisted tale
That we hear of so much:
Two birds with one hailstone,
Death from maelstrom above.

Kiss me with the colours of your breath
And serenade me with the strings of the lyre
Let the music play my favourite note
And plunge me near the blaze of love
Where passions burn into gentle flames
Like showers of winning confetti
Your words engrave the sweetest graffiti
Upon my eager earlobe
When you smile fresh waters spill
And wild birds stand agaze
And when you touch my wanting lips
Passions revive anew
Your imperfections perfectly fit my puzzle
There is no room for a scuffle
My mind is coloured with thoughts of you
And my heart picks up the residue
Come oh come my sweet dove
Let's commit the legal crime of love
I will sit under the autumn maple tree
Where butterflies engage the hummingbirds
I'll surely wait till you appear
To fill my warm embrace
We shall gaze into utter space
And fill it with our maze

Real lovers are like
A train and a track
One can't walk or run
Other's useless without first
Real lovers are like
Sadness and happiness
Both are known
Because both exist
Real lovers are like
Plants root and shoot
Both keep each other alive
Unaware of each other's face

Who says oceans are deep
It's your exquisite eyes
Who says sugar is sweet
It's your soft soothing voice
Who says nature is nurturing
It's your electrifying touch
Who says flowers are beautiful
It's your scarless smile
Who says rainbows are colorful
It's your exotic expressions
Who says nobody is perfect
For me It's flawless you
Who says dreams can't come true
'Cause mine is in front of me for sure

Two lovebirds snuggle
in the shade of a weeping willow,
oblivious to chastising honks
of Canadian geese.
Blushing buds begin to bloom,
swollen with anticipation
as the solstice draws near
and blood boils beneath the skin.
Weathered voyeurs train watchful eyes
on the short-lived marriage of the flesh,
scoffing at the consummation of seasons,
knowing the fickle nature of the sun.
When the geese fly south, so will he.

I love to watch
lovebirds
It reminds me
Of the warm
I always search for
but somehow
always
fly away

Love is not for birds.
Its for beetles,
slowly slaving over
pushing their piles of ****
backwards up a hill in unison.

Lovebirds
An old man sat with patience
On the bench he waited for her
He smiled sweetly on her appearance
Hand in hand they walked together.
In the garden full of greens
The lovebirds chatted with laughter
As if they were in movie scenes
The way they looked at each other.
He stroke her hair gently
Her hair clip he'd bought years ago
Still intact she placed it neatly
That is the little pink flamingo.
Pleasant breeze they enjoyed
As they continued walking
Her fragile nature shivered
In her thin floral dress clothing.
He took off his outer layer shirt
Naturally putting it on her shoulders
She joked about wearing a skirt
He thought she was full of wonders.
He recalled her bravery
She reminisced his sacrifices
They've come far in life's journey
Counting their little happiness.
As I watched from a distance
I felt a pinch of sweet jealousy
Witnessing true love's existence
Yet wishing them to stay as lovely.

At last, we meet again.
So deeply devoted to one another,
Our hearts beat to the same rhythm.
"Boom. Boom."
That charming gaze, delightful smile.
I let you carry me away.
And off we go.
Flying through the cotton clouds,
Eyes filled with happy tears,
Never wanting it to end.
"Destiny awaits us!"
So utterly consumed in each other.
Two love birds unable to let go.
The softness of your palm against my cheek,
Leaning in too close,
Laughing at our little jokes.
Everything is finally falling into the proper place.
But at last,
I wake up.
And you are gone once more.

We are the perfect pair
Two lovebirds sharing a nest
I make your heart sing, you make my heart fly
Your voice puts my heart at rest.

But the lovebirds turned into ravens and heart warmth into heartbreak. The pain felt inexplicable as I crumbled to the floor, face scrunching up to let out a gasp through the heart-wrenching sobs. It was as though someone ripped my heart out of my chest and bore a hole in my mind and soul with no hopes of repair.The future we painted was tinted and washed with the tears that scraped my cheek, that once used to blush. Our love didn’t have a Disney proof happy ending or of the star-crossed lovers that fought by one another’s side.
Visiting areas where we spent time dragged me through memories, attacking my nerves and ravaging upon what was left of my being. The home we built and leveled with intimacy, trust and love reduced to ruins, crumbling and collapsing. It’s like my heart is dying a slow death, shedding hope like leaves every day until there is none. Our love sailed for some time but only to end up shipwrecked. Fragile like the glass that awaited to broken until the shards fit no more.
Defeaned by the repetition of the melancholiac rhythms that soothe my spasming and scorched heart as the beat resonates with my heart and lyrics echoes in my skull. The wound that was cut bleeds deep for there was no scab to heal; endless anguish and agony. The pain felt like a constant ache, a constant stain on the floor and the pillow. But then it came in waves, crashing and enveloping me in its depths, stealing appetite and sleep. Drifting away from the shore where the people lie, I find myself drowning in isolation. Inhaling the heaviness that made me one with the sea.
The echoes of your words in my skull send pulsating self-doubt questions that make me question my worth. “Was he not the one?”. The world seems like it’s going to end and that I will never find love. But instead live with a heart yearning your name and the broken, hollow vessel that I have become.
You changed the way I thought of myself and now I don’t know who I am without you. The world seems to ripped from my arms for I didn’t have you to turn to. No one to catch me; to caress and to soothe. Your face is engraved in my memory, without you, everything seems meaningless. Saturating myself further in dreaded apathy. In a shattered state, I am further tortured in dreams if I were to find sleep in the darkness that consumes the night.
Plastered on a smile and laugh occasionally, when deep down I am longing, drowning and gasping to breathe with your name on my tongue.I mourn the unspoken words while my head hangs heavy in the thought of you, every fiber and cell missing you.

To the milestones on the side
So far, I have walked alone
Waiting for a travel companion
To carry my weight with her
Laughing at silly jokes we share
I intend to keep her forever
And you have shown me things
Every traveler will see in his life
Then, passing time
We’ll share our heart
With some off springs
Blossomed out of her beauty
Her smile will be painted
As a perfect picture
On their little shining faces
Together, we will journey more
Till the end of the road
And depart away with her
Leaving wisdom and provision
To the ones we cared the most
I’ll carry her through the heavens
To an eternal garden of harmony

*But we aren’t love birds
I’ll get lonely if you leave
But I wouldn’t die*

They are trapped
In their own volition and time
Their face: a clock with only 12 reactions
Full of romance
They are trapped in a box
Too small for windows and doors
To see the moors of sodden floors
Trapped in a chair
Two tons too lazy
And another half empty

*Snuggled together
In a nest full of feathers
Four wings and a nap
Little hearts they are beating
As these lovebirds lie sleeping*

The church bells chime,
Suddenly the door flew open,
There came my gorgeous bride,
In an embroided white dress,
A veil on her face,
Red lipstick on,
She walks down the aisle,
Her father gives me her hand and leaves,
The reverand speaks a few verses,
But when we share our vows,
I was so stocked and there was so much I could've said,
But I had to stop myself.
I thank God that you came in my life,
You are my angel,
That sparkled my life.

Dear Facebook lovebirds,
I get it. You like each other.
But seriously, just stop.
If you want to tell someone
you love them,
that you're nothing without them,
that you'd die for them,
send them a message,
or better yet, actually tell them
face to face and savor the embrace of the moment
because if I see another post
about your immortal love
I'll remind you of its mortality.
Sincerely,
Someone who's heard it before

two little love birds
sitting on a cloud
one said
"Kiss me!"
right out loud!
they flew down
upon a log
they preened each other
and they
snogged!
soulsurvivor
and they snogged

~Lovebirds,
They fly when they are in love.
Me,
I haven't even grown my wings yet.~
