I am proud of myself because
I do not have to say "I will be"
but I have the power to say
**"I am"
What are you proud of?
Phone calls, lonely sheets.
Warm bodies, and cold feet.
Soft touch, hard kisses.
Imposed beliefs, and forgotten wishes.
Dancing silly, writing serious.
Long distance love is thought to be delirious.
Maybe they were right, since it's done now.
Though your contour still wrinkles in my sheets somehow.
Thinking of you I can feel happy, or I can feel numb.
You left behind far too many love crumbs.
I would travel around the universe
just to see you smile.
I would walk through hell
just to hear you laugh.
I would swim all of the oceans on this Earth
just to wipe away your tears.
Because all of my pain suddenly disappears
when you smile.
Can't wait to see you smile again...

Before I could realise
How dangerous it can be to love a monster
The damage was done
The blood was drawn
And now there is no turning back
I wish to never worry about tomorrow
Never worry about the someday
Take the joy with the sorrow
And just live for today.

Poems aren't written,
they're found,
Somewhere in your head the words are waiting,
They're sprawled across the floor,
You just need to pick them up,
Make a path with them,
Let your path guide observers,
And if you can't write,
Walk down somebody's else's path first,
First poem I've written, to anybody who reads this is hope you enjoyed it and it made you day a little better

You are the moon
Dark and lonely
and looking for a friend
And I am the star
sitting right behind you
Praying for you to turn around
Please just turn around

I'm living in the present.
My mind is on the past.
Not knowing what I'll lose.
Not knowing what will last.
