I have never been satisfied, Always reaching for the sky. That was until I got lost In those dreamy, starry eyes.
Our dreams and our hearts never rest— “Avec toi, chaque jour est une aventure,” Your lips, always soft and tender.
I’ll meet you under the Eiffel’s light, Shining brighter than anything, anyone tonight. Whispers of sweet nothings float in the breeze— If it wasn’t for you, I’d still be chasing my dreams.
Your hand in mine, love unfolding along the Seine. “A poet is only as good as their definition of poetry,” So there will you find me, in a cozy Parisian café, Sipping my coffee, dreaming of you.
My thoughts turn into words, Becoming love notes scribbled on postcards— Every moment, I’ll be thinking of you.
Our hearts and our love will always be timeless, Never at rest until, “Notre amour est un poème écrit sur chaque rue pavée.”
Paris awaits you— My art, my passion, Your love, your ambition. I’ll wait for you, To create new pages in our endless love story.
Remember, “Tu es mon chez-moi, peu importe où nous sommes.”
A poet is only as good As their definition of poetry much like a story could only be judged by its context it's interesting how an art effects those who prow those who look for that one specific painting one specific book people are waning much like the moon but unlike it they come and go and never come again it's easy to quit so they look when A poet defines poetry much like a person defines life short and empty like them so they can feel something before the end.
Poetry is an art, a form of expression. We reach deep down and give a confession. We find the beauty in our deep, dark pain. Constantly searching for things in our brain. We use visions and metaphors to reveal our truths. Diving all the way down into our innate roots. There is no rule book, so be yourself. But I recommend you scan a bookshelf. We are being liberated from our suppression. I promise you this will become your obsession. If you’re a deep individual, with a vast inner domain. Come write a poem, and release all your pain.
Yet is it better if their definition deems sultry? The kind that burns and leaves you trying The kind that makes you want to dream, but for a lost cause Because what is poetry without those little flaws? Yet if a poem seems to give the effect of dying The effect that burns the soul thoroughly The effect that crashes your heart severely But with the passion it makes your sorrow Turn into beauty of the warmth of burrows Then maybe poetry is cruelly free And a poet, is known for nothing but expressing their heart truly.
A poet is only as good as their definition of poetry
Does poetry make me a poet or is it the thoughts of others
If i dont like my work am I truly a poet?
A singer is only as good as their definition of music
For i could sing all day but break others ears
Does singing make you a singer of course not
A mother is only as good as their definition of love
I could carry you in my womb but that makes me a mom not a mother
I could love you forever I would be your mother
A teacher is only as good as their definition of learning
I could lecture you all day and you could learn nothing
I could nurture your mind and teach you everything
You are only as good as your definition of it
You could be kind but be brutal
You could be a fighter But still be a lover
fault is such a fickle little word, it can mean anything.
was it my fault?
who’s was it?
how is the blame so easy to pin, yet so difficult to accept?
was it my fault?
my mind says yes, but my heart says no. both are each wrong in their individual ways.
i want an answer.
but i fear the reply.
and so, these questions, they stay in my heart.
they wait to be sung out,
a beautiful phrase, a chord,
to be absorbed into someone’s open ear.
it’s difficult to think of such things.
and yet i do.
A poet is only as good as their definition of poetry obsession, Crows love the melancholy of the Night Poets are obsessed with poetry Something one can never lessen
Love is not something you rewrite, There is no definition
Poets write the life they never got In their madness In the grief of the night Poetry is a poet's prison
A prison they love
