Roses are red,
I want you in my bed,
Violets are blue,.
I want you in my arms too.
Marry me,
My dearie,
In you I have found my forever,
Let's live happily together.
My Love say 'yes",
You and me become us.

Oftentimes,
A poet doesn't lift their pen daily,
It's better to write nothing,
Than force something out.

As well for the fact,
Some things are best left unsaid,
This world is a rocky streambed.
Sometimes you just gotta put the pen down and try again tomorrow.

Springtime has truly begun
And sweet scented flowers
Fill the air and the little
Birds all sing a happy
Soothing song a
Chorus to the fresh display and
Springtime is fresh and bright
And the flowers will smile
In the morning sunlight and
Spring's gentle kiss the world renews
With colourful flowers beautful and bright
And all the land rejoices in the springtime.
Flowers 💐 🌹 🌸 🏵 🌼 💐

Something told me that I need you
Unknowing if it was my heart, pride, or conscious
And so I fought
To my surprise I won
Then that shady culprit backed away
Desire gone
You're here
Yet they left me completely alone
The idea of chasing someone, just to succeed, then feeling emptier than when you started. Wondering what it was that caused the shift. (Shady Culprit being the unknown push behind the attraction. Heart, pride, conscious)

Words in Bloom
Tell me you’re only mine
Even if you’re lying
Look me in the eyes
Tell me you love me
And that im the only one for you
I don’t care if im delusional
As long as I feel happy again

Soulless
I know there are many here who pray,  
So if my words aren't yours today,  
Please turn away, for this is mine—  
A truth I carry, yours not to define.  

When they speak of God, their voices pure,  
I can't take it in, can't feel secure.  
For God was not there when I called,  
In moments dark, when I had fallen.  

I search for answers in the silence, deep,  
Wondering why I was left to weep.  
So when they speak of faith and grace,  
I question if it's just a trace.  

I don’t deny their right to believe,  
But in my heart, there's a different weave.  
For God was absent when I needed light,  
Leaving me alone in the longest night.

Lost Indeed
I feel like I can see colors now,
As my world finds its missing piece.
From the depths of my soul, I vow
To cherish you with every heartbeat.

You are engraved in my heart,
Written deep within my soul,
Marked upon my very being—
In my life, you are the goal.
