If love was a fruit
It would be grape
Nice in the start
But bitter with protraction
Onerous to tell by looks
But easily told by taste
How strange you make one feel
Happy and sad at the same time
One rides in vain
Despite the exceeding pain
You leave one gasping for air
Every time they steal a glance at you
Like a lion on the hunt
Desperately searching for a meal
You hide and only come out when ones ready
Your treasure is hidden at the core
That only you can access
Talk about consistency
You get bored
Talk about craziness
You get jolly
Smile for nothing
You get a reason to grin
Whisper amazing words
You jump for joy
Amazing love
Refined as wine
Sweet as Brachetto d’Acqui
Bitter as Cabernet Sauvignon
The world isn't pleasant without you
An ocean would never laugh if the clouds weren't there to kiss her with tears
You comfort one in difficult times
Smile when sadness intrudes
How beautiful you are

As the wind blows & waves rise higher than our boat, I'm terrified & can't see a way out
I can only think of how perfect life has been before I came aboard
My mind's filled with thoughts of how this deep ocean will swallow me whole
Adrift by a tide & I'm scared the more
With my heart not in my chest I slip into insomnia
Trapped inside my own body
I can only imagine how to be a ghost & peep through the windows of the righteous
Learn how they live to find direction
Wake up with a new identity & willing to walk in the light of truth
Pour oil to the flames of love that give this world a glow brighter than a thousand stars

Eager to grab a meal
It rushes for its ****
Fast as lightening strikes the ground
It grabs onto its neck
With all strength endowed
It tears it's flesh
And as the prey lies helpless
It starts to feed
With the African Cheetah, hesitation means a lost meal ushering in hunger which dooms survival in the wild

Tears of the sky
The heavens cry out loud
She's been sad for a while
And now let's it all out
Falling gracefully at a pace
The flowers set to embrace

Alleviate the cold in one
Refurbish blood in the vein

A change in the weather
A mirror with an unfamiliar reflection
A winter without snow
A sad song that plays on
It isn't the life I wanted
Clearly not how I imagined
Rallies for joy replaced by hurt and sorrow
How else could I see you
Only time will tell
My mind creates stories
Beautiful memories I'd want to hold
My eyes adore your every move
Sadly that's all I can have
Well you're you, am simply me
Could I be infatuated
I can't be this weak
I fell in love with an imagination
A vision I'd want to keep
If wishes were true, I'd have you through thorns and ash
Pick up the pieces
Create all for mine
I do want you
But I know I can't have you
Guess good things have you messed up
And all you left with is wishing you could have it all back
That's how scary it is when I think about falling for you.

Her: It beats my understanding why you'd want to meet this version of me, like this.

I want to meet her because I want a life with her
Talking to her keeps me warm
She says loving makes her weak but that doesn't make her helpless
She's a strong and easy person to love
Every bit a man wants in a woman
I've fallen for her even though she's afraid to try
Wants to be close but fears she'll lose me the moment she lets herself fall much deeper
Sometimes I hate her for it but she's only human
An innocent soul with an equally fragile heart
"I'll let you meet her when I don't feel like I need a return ticket" is what she says
I could tell she's ready but still in denial
Even when she tries to push me away,
I give her more reasons not to
To say it more plainly, I'm in love with her
That's why.
If there were a child to come
She'd learn to love like her mum
And patience
She's worth the wait.

Just seen the girl I liked & wished I could see right through her
Wished I could be her skin
Wished I could be her voice
How lovely it is to have a special person in life
For all evil seems to die out when she comes along.

I've drawn an image of her in my head and all i think of is wanting her so bad despite all limits
In my mind am weak
Unable to resist her
Each time her lips flash before me
All i want to do is place mine against hers
Can't verbally say it out but I've always wanted a share of her
Feel her in and out and hear her cry
It could be hard and wrong but she makes me feel its right

One last smile
As I hold your chin
One last time
Reminisce and laugh together
For it ain't forever
A new door has opened
A story that won't have you in it even when I want you
Selfish is not what I want to be
On this bed as I say bye
I will forever have your memory
Even in the after life.

One of a few things I'm sure of is
With all the craziness around
You truly are the love of my life

Her heart's vulnerable to his lies
No truth comes from his lips
Sorry is what he says & sweet memories of him roam through her mind
Happy to fall for him once more
She drowns in his soul

He was a shadow and she was his light
That much he knew
That much he still knows
She's not just any girl!
She's thee girl!
She's her own woman
Beautiful, kind sweet & ****!
He prays for her everyday
He hopes everyday she's out safe
He's hurt her before
He's sorry for the hurt he brought
He loves her dearly
She showed him real love
A kind he never thought even he was capable of
He holds onto that for forever
She's his girl
He's hers.

A shadow to the light
Dark as coal in the mine
Unseen to these naked eyes
For its never pure before anyone
Only he who knows will understand
The path it seeks to redefine
Replace the once dark with light, once bronze with gold, once cold with warm or maybe fill the air with spice
Compassion it could be, but Forgiveness it is
For it takes bravery and courage
Like a lion with its ****

You pretend to be happy even when your sad inside and I fall for it
Act like you don't need my company & yet you do
Blame me even when nothing is wrong & I say sorry
I believe whatever you say even when I know it isn't true
It's like you cast a spell that addled me when with you
Maybe I'm desperate
Maybe I'm sheepishly falling for you even when your flaws are more sinister than the devil's own
Unconditional love orchestrated by all means your irresistible
Give me reasons to believe this is genuine love and not an infatuation.

When I'm drowning with fear, I feel strengthened
When I'm lost, I find my way
When I'm at the bottom, I'm pulled up
I hear his encouraging voice all the time
He hasn't given up on me & I doubt he will for his love exists abundantly
His heart's filled with joy and I praise him everyday for no goodness comes except through him

The absence of your smile made me cry for the first time
More of a sign you and i are no more
The walls have been shattered
You're up there & I'm down on the floor
Always thought I would take it all in but seeing you happy makes me sad
Not that i envy your happiness but because I'm not the one with jokes anymore
Nice things do come to an end  though i wish that wasn't our door
Yeah it hurts to say bye but at least i had become a chord to your guitar and soul.

As peaceful as a manatee
Tender as a dove
Innocent as a baby
I lie on my bed awaiting next days trials

No words can air out this grief
Hurting like flesh is under a furnace
Wanting to go back but its impossible
Since everything seems destroyed beyond repair

Fore told is fore warned
For the texts showed something that she didn't realise
Not wanting to doubt him
His skeletons stayed in the dark
Until when a physical encounter witnessed by her
As her husband slept on with another girl

I choose you
Not for the beauty but your character
Not for the pictures but me
I choose you above all claims that you as a choice isn't right but in these eyes you're just fine
I choose to cherish every moment like I choose to take this life journey with you
I choose you
More than the stars in the sky
More than the colours in the rainbow
More than the eyes that choose to watch us in silence
Even after a time, I choose you
Always

Ash could turn back to paper,metal be liquidated
thorn be molded to something smooth as one paves their way out of the hole of wishes that never come true with urge to love and be loved there won't be a river from the eyes but joy with smiles.

Happy as always, i could sense that in her tone
Always free about anything for restricted isn't one of her choice
Delighted with a sense of humour & urge to know more
She seeks answers even a heart break  becomes inevitable
Not knowing what to do next, she lies helpless in a bed of roses
Awaiting a guardian angel to finally come by and free her from the misery that prevails after betrayal

Still can't tell where love lies
If it's inside & the heart is the source
Or out & the looks & gestures say it all

Whirling as the wind
Soothing as the breeze
Cold as ice
Tense all the time
Chills all over her skin
A little warmth is what she needs
Another drop from the sky
And blankets are all over her skin

Is it ok if i push further
Further so i could get a place in your heart
Faster so you could let me into your life
Act weaker so you could see how vulnerable i am when around you
Or stronger so you could notice the brave in me as i say , "i love you."

Wash us free of inequity
Destroy the savage
And cleanse our souls
Blood that heals many
Be our forever guide
None is like you
For you rise with glory all the time

Let the sun shine as always
Let the moon reflect light from the sun
Let the sky be blue for a time
Let it pour like never before
Let friendship be built
Let it all be tested

I keep wondering when all this will stop
Look outside the window & just see how peaceful everything is
With none in pain
When happiness is what drives us all
Committed to one another with trust being prior
And not to have fear
For love would have brought us all together
I'll keep waiting on that day but until then
I'm lost in my own head

Maybe the darkness could become light one day
Maybe the pain could be healed and we are all free from sorrow
Maybe the furthest of stars could finally shine with brighter light
Maybe be our efforts will eventually payoff
Maybe, maybe not someday
The puzzle of uncertainty still takes over
If only someone could tell the future

In the mirror there's a reflection
An image of your physique that can be seen even from a far
With a crack, the view is divided
All that shows is phases of you
In my brown eyes there's you
Only when closer can you see you

People change just like seasons
Once familiar face now turned stranger
Unrecognisable
But why the sudden character change

Just one day will do
A second or two
So i see this through
I want to relive all moments
Smile at the beautiful
Cry over the ugly
Can you feel my hurt too?
I just need to know the truth
You stole my heart
Yet i had no clue

Is it weird that i want this
Is it silly that I'm crying all over again
You of all people were an Angel
Why the sudden change
Its crazy on this new path
Can't seem to find my way
Like strangers in outer space

Could we hit the reset button
I want to start out fresh
Listen to what my heart says
Its tone's sharper than a new blade

Countless as stars
Like soil is on the ground
Unnoticed when done & with time becomes our pride
Reluctant we are, always not wanting to admit the wrong we've done
**** even when we try, mistakes still follow us
Guess it's a tough journey that ends when the soil claims ownership over us once more
With the wind being our mode of transportation to our next course or universe

Broken glasses on the floor
Arguments never leave our room
Passionate we were
Now all I see is broken souls
With trust gone, secluded we've become
How I wish the amazing days would come back to life
I know we hurt each other
But it's us to heal our sores
So the least I could ask is stay & help me fight once more

I wrote your name on the ocean sand
5 meters offshore so it wouldn't be washed away
The shallow waves came but couldn't get closer to our line of fame
Watched the sun set that was pretty
Finally got to know what orange light looks like with someone
Said bye to the sun as it went back to sleep
Played in the water, rolled our bodies & enjoyed the last bits of the ocean's breeze
Made a vow to love & never be broken & sealed it with our lips
That's the joy we had in our ocean streets

By the river we had a seat, above the ground in the trees
Sat on our favorite branch & watched the leaves fall diligently
Listened to the birds chirp & wished we could fly like them
Stared so much though made no promises
From across we could see right through each others eyes

On Thursday's we stayed out late
Wandering along the streets till we found ourselves on my rooftop
Sat there, gazed at the stars
Made secret wishes that we later tricked each other to tell

Sunday evening was our calm not so quiet day
Time for sharing & hoped the new week went well
Had a sip of flavored coffee from the café just around the corner to warm our hearts and awaken the once "have to work personalities"
Embraced each other as we said bye before we lost track of time the more.

Don't want to wait another day
Just to show you how much i love you
It's either now or never
Only if you let me
Let you know

How beautiful the light emitted by the sun as it sets is
I remember we used to watch it together
Say the obvious word "Awww" all the time
Everyday felt really worth having
Those memories kinda make me ask what went wrong

It was nice looking at the stars in the sky
The streets felt safer with you in my arms
Like new lovers, we made a promise to love one another
On cold nights, we kept each other warm
What went wrong with us
Wish we could go back to where it all started so I wouldn't have to lose you now.
