You asked me why I like you
But I didn’t want to tell
Some of my reasons are cheesy...
But here is why I fell

I love the way your lips curve
When I make you smile
It makes me want to pull you close
And kiss you for awhile

I love the way your eyes twinkle
When you talk about things you love
I truely believe
You are a gift from above

I love that you are compassionate
You have such a big heart
That was the first thing I noticed
Right from the start

I love the way it feels
When you hold me tight
I finally feel safe
Like I could sleep through the night

I love that you don’t judge me
For my less than perfect self
That is more attractive
Than any amount of wealth

There are so many more reasons
But I’ll start with just this few
Maybe someday
I’ll give this poem to you

:)

"you're so strong" they said
"you're an inspiration" they said
"you're perfect" they said
"i'll never leave you" he said
"you're the love of my life" she said
"you'll get over it" they said

"i feel so weak" i whispered
"i want to go home" i said
"i can't get out of bed" i whined
"i want to die" i cried
"can anybody hear me?" i screamed

but nobody heard because they were only focused
on themselves
so much so, that they were hurting
the one person who might have just cared the most

"i'm just tired" i lied
as i crawled back to my bed
the only safe place left
that i had

"i'm sorry" i said
"there's nothing to be done" i said
"i tried my best" i said
"i've made mistakes i know, far greater than
you can imagine
but now it's all caught up
and i can't escape myself" i said

right now, you're looking for an answer
right now, you're craving a touch
right now, you're looking back on your past mistakes
because someone decided to take advantage of your soft heart.
you felt for everyone, you were everyone's go-to for advice.
but right now, you're hurting.
right now, you're crying and it's late
because you can't get out of your own head.
you've put yourself through so much ****

now you're finally able to be free

her.
her eyes, you could get lost in them
with just a glance.
her hair, dark as night but her smile
shines like the stars
which complements her so perfectly.
she is beautiful, and I want to tell her every day.
her mind makes her doubt herself but just as so her creativity
helps her escape all the negativity.
her lips always know how to form
the words I want to hear
and I would kiss them all day if you lived near.
her laugh makes me smile
even on my worst day.
they say laughter is the best medicine, but it’s my only medicine.
she is the definition
of an imperfect perfection.
her.
she is all I need.
I think
I might love
her.
