HIM
He was imperfect
He was young
She loved him
She was crazy
She wasn’t so pretty
He loved her

He had doubts
He had challenges
She loved him
She was naïve
She was carefree
He loved her

He was smart
He was cute
She loved him
She got brains
She had talent
He loved her

He lied
He cheated
She loved him
He became rude
He was difficult
She loved him

He was scared
He was reckless
She cared
He was arrogant
He was insensitive
She was hurt

He ignored her
He hurt her more
She became different
He cheated more
He cheated carelessly
She ignored him

He became scarce
He cut off ties
She survived
He was addicted
He was pitiful
She had empathy

He fell
She brought him up
He got sick
She nursed him to health
She slipped
He didn’t catch her
He got into trouble
She turned her back on him

He wanted her back
She didn’t
It was too late
She felt nothing for him

She was,
A diamond he got
She was,
A diamond he lost
Love and be loved
If you don't know how to love
I still have a space in my heart.
Love you all.

The hardest part of living
Having to face the past each day
No matter where I look here it's there
Impossible to get away

This town teems with memories
Of our favorite places
Plagued by overflowing mental holograms
Ghosts we left as traces

I cannot forget the laughter
Nights stayed up too late
Who knew all was wasted?
Happiness was not our fate

These roads we have walked a thousand times
Striding arm-in-arm or hand-in-hand
Traveling them alone is a concept I hate
Grown to understand

It was yesterday it seems
Hand was free from chains
Regret imprisons my body and mind
Eternally haunted by what remains

Lost the comfort of a monotonous routine
Contradictory emotions I thinly hide
Was naive to believe all the walls I put up
Shut out but not shut me inside

The war between fear and hope
A battle I fight every day
Out of shape
Out of breath from sparring
Pretend I am okay

But know my "Fine" is only a facade
I will cry when I'm alone
Convincing myself pain will one day end
How can it end if I'm doing it on my own?

And if I did ask for help
Choose to send an SOS
There is no guarantee for an easier life
I would just be bringing somebody more stress

So bear the explosions as best as I can
My frozen soul I long to surrender
With an army of regrets I strive to forget
Must be losing-because I still remember
This is sad but true
Your heart is my  temple of love
I worship it alone.
I wish I were a temple
And your heart is my idol.

INTRO
She said you could
Write me a love song baby
But that doesn't mean
You're getting anything

From me.

CHORUS
It always seems to be
Complications, Situations
It ain't easy
When you're in love
But when you hit that feeling
It rises you up
You'll be so high
That no one can touch
Or bring you down
You are invincible now

V1
(Hey) I've been there
Don't take ****
But this girl,
She is fine
Just wish I could make her mine
You know what I'm saying
She doesn't come easy
Got a work hard (Yeah)
She expects commitment
Trust and stuff
But I don't care
I'd do it for her
She's the only girl I want
In my arms, Gunna hold her tight
Kiss her and tell her she is my life
(Yeah) Can't seem to get her
out of my head
Got my pen on the paper
The thoughts come out
And I'm writing something
New every single night
It's all about you
I can't stand this girl

CHORUS
It always seems to be
Complications, Situations
It ain't easy
When you're in love
But when you hit that feeling
It rises you up
You'll be so high
That no one can touch
Or bring you down
You are invincible now

V2
I've had a fist full of regrets
Seen a million sunsets
But for some **** reason
I can't seem to forget
Trying to put you
In an outlet
But your still there in my head
(Hey) Do you feel me
Do you understand
What's being said
(Yeah) Got love songs on repeat
No wonder I can never
get to sleep
To busy thinking about you
And all of the things that we could do
Oh baby

CHORUS
It always seems to be
Complications, Situations
It ain't easy
When you're in love
But when you hit that feeling
It rises you up
You'll be so high
That no one can touch
Or bring you down
You are invincible now

V3
(Hey)
Hey, Is there anybody out there
(Hey)
Hey, Do you hear what I'm saying
(Yeah)
Can you understand me
Do you get what I'm feeling
The memories keep flying
Soon I'm gonna be busting
Through the ceiling
Do you know
What you do to me
I just wanna feel you'
And kiss you into the evening
There are four words
I gotta say to you
and that is
(Baby I Love You)

CHORUS
It always seems to be
Complications, Situations
It ain't easy
When you're in love
But when you hit that feeling
It rises you up
You'll be so high
That no one can touch
Or bring you down
You are invincible now

Who am i??

I know, that i am broken.
I know yhu can't fix me, just as the way hello poetry wouldn't fix their server lags.
Maybe I'm not really broken...
But the way yhu look at me.
That shatters me!!
When someone makes yhu feel stupid, and like a worthless person, but they still keep yhu around, cause they want a reference point.
Rain,
This silver  melody
That kisses my eyes
And my memory.
Tuned in a way
That only my heart could play
Love each  drop of  this rain
Touching my lips
Is that summer rain?

You Are

On the edge of sleep you are the moon
suspended in a midnight sky
shining among all the stars in heaven
A ’twinkling in your eyes

You are my Sunday morning
sharing skin between the sheets
And lazy afternoons
That leave me full, complete

You are a life long journey
A path that leads me home
A fire to stir my passion
The only one I’ve known

You’re whispers in my coffee
Sweet echoes are my cream
You‘re the rage of lustful yearnings
In my silent movie screams

Just like a speckled puppy
You bring me youthful joy
Like a candy coated confection
That leaves me wanting more

You burn with fire and flame
That robs me of my sight
You’re everything I long for
An ageless guiding light

You are a timeless vessel, dear
The maker of my sighs
A keeper of my secrets
The flame I can’t deny

You are that haunting melody
Rewinding in my head
A bold and tasty morsel
That keeps my hunger fed

In dreams…you are the moon, love
Sweet whispers in the night
You settle on my pillowslip
To make all my wrongs seem right

~~~
