It's hard for me to express myself
I want to tell you how I feel
Let the words
Sprout through my mouth like flowers

But if I don't water them enough
How can you see them?
a conversation that will never occur,
a message that no one will ever send,
a date nobody will ever plan,

*for something that will never happen
Today the sun wore shades and batted its eyes
and blocked me from out of its sight
polygraphed my senses searching for truth in silver linings
only to find that beneath me lied the sky

I'm Forgotten..
why do I feel so forgotten?..

The people I had touched but the felt is intangible
and price tag my life retail worth is invaluable
and those cold shoulders felt like blizzards
with cuts that drowned me deep in clouds of scissors

I'm Forgotten..
why do I feel so forgotten?..

I'm the past lives  burnt in bonfires
they  threw matches and poured ashes, deceiving subtract liars
I am as lonesome as a single leaf  dwelling  rain forests
mislead in ways to guidance  like new city tourists

I'm Forgotten..
why do I feel so forgotten?..

Like unseen 'time that wrinkles in hour glass
with the flesh skin of elderly like hours never passed
I brought fortune to future than any number in dollar signs
but they bounced  away like a checks that declined

I'm Forgotten..
why do I feel so forgotten?..

We began as two lost souls floating in the air,
unwarily aware waiting to be united,
who could or would ever stop to think,
that I’d be the one to spend your entire life with,

A beautiful piece of flesh, heaven scented
God graced with a beauty that sparked,
strings on her eyelashes reciting melodies
to which became the song to our hearts,

She polishes my skin with her cottoned touch,
Drenched in delicacy ,softened with lost love,
Our lips bonded together like street riots,
echoing strong yet calm enough to seal my lips quiet,

Our eyes gaze ever last without once becoming sore,
I am not the man of your dreams wishing woman,
Yet you’re everything I dream t for,

And you know that I know that you know,
that I know that we both know this is true,
by the looks of you I fear your expectations
I lie down asking myself what I can offer you,

What would someone with so much soul and prestige
be doing loving and spending her whole life with me,
In all honestly, my life with you I visualized it,
God sent you here for me, the feeling I can't describe it,

Waves splash of matched personalities,
we dived and drowned in the ocean of chemistry,
your clutched hands rubber band my destiny,
cliche it seems, yet I truly believe that you were meant for me,

I daydream about you while typing Z's in my speech bubble,
wondrous, anxious, joyful, for we fit in place like a perfect puzzle,
imperfect I lie, yet perfect through your eyes to see,
eager to share with you my love that's deeper than eternity,

Deaf to knowing inside your heart is where our future lied,
a God gifted life from the skies who was made to be my wife ,
my burning heart lit with love for that only yearns for she,
eternally knowing that her loves shared with no one but me.

Like the Great Wall of China,
I built these walls to protect myself.
But the then you came along and went through them anyway

All that time spent
For nothing.

You invaded my heart,
And once you were in
I couldn't get you out.

I can't get you out.
You came and destroyed me.
**But I still miss you.
If
I could keep writing you poems you'll never read

Or I could put my pen down and bandage my own heart

Either way, I would still lose because I wouldn't have you
Passenger seat, go on take me away
Racing a Porsche on the highway
Open the windows let the wild wind blow
Sends my dress flying, I'm Marilyn Monroe
