the yearning
is burning
my poor heart.
doomed to be
a hopeless
endeavor
from the start.
Veronica Nov 2023
Would you rather experience true love and die young,
or would you rather live a good life and die old, never having loved?
I think, I would prefer the first
Because I cannot wait to be in love, and I cannot wait to die.
Yes! I cannot wait!
I cannot wait anymore!
With the threat of death close,
Life would mean so much more
If I had someone
to live for

Perhaps it was a fluke
And I never felt this way
after all
my emotions were fake
it must be true
for my sanity's sake

That's what I'll remind myself
every single time
I think of you

When I'm alone
I keep catching myself
Smiling
Imagining you
next to me
Veronica Nov 2023
I smile as I feel
the sun shine on my skin
and we frolic amongst flowers
in the garden

you don't know how long
I have waited to feel
held and touched
by a love that was real

and as you pull me in close,
your hands melt into mine
I realize it's you
I have waited for
all this time

let's bask in this feeling
here, among the tulips
our two lips
can find meaning
