you…

you you you you

you you you you you you

you you you you you you you you

you you you you you you you you you

you you you you you you you you

you you you you you you you

you you you you you you

you you you you you

you you you you

you you you

...

I’ll look at pictures of you and your bright blue eyes until they burn into mine through the late hours of the night

I’ll listen to your favorite songs until I hear your voice in the ringing of my ears

And swim in a river of tears from the memories that are etched into my mind

For the slight chance

That it will tattoo into my brain deep enough for me to dream

Of you

And only you...

Am I rushing too soon?

Or is it the perfect time?

Oh, how I long for a partner,

One who will support me,

No matter what,

Through the happy times,

And the dark.

They say,

“You’re too young for that”

Ironic, coming from those whose relationships have fallen.

I believe love happens when one’s ready,

No matter the age.

I will continue longing for a partner,

Until I have met him.

We shall deal ...

I've written enough poems about my inability to express/recieve love.

It's not that I don't want it, moreso I don't know how to find it.

I _want_ to look at someone and feel butterflies in my stomach.

I want someone's arms around me, body molding against mine like puzzle pieces.

I want the type of love that doesn't need words; the type of love that you can just sense when you look into their e...

**_Act 1_**

My heart pounds

Beating with every breath you take

With every blink of your eyes

You’re here now

Alive from my womb

Grasping at me with your small hands

Your frail body

It’s in my hands, safe and trusting

As you look at me with your big eyes

He’s gone, though

But you’re here, here with me

And I’ll take care of you with my Ma

Oh! Don’t cry

Mommy’s here with your food

Good girl, ea...

Blue soothes the mind, washing over our troubles with the ocean waves.

Green like the folliage in a quiet forest, or like the emeralds that are adorned on crowns.

Black mysterious like obsidian, sought after like the mineral.

Hazel, an orchestra of colors that confuse sight, pulling you closer to inspect each color.

But brown crouches down, looking down at the floor and mumbling,

“Who wou...

We’re tangled up on purpose,

letting loose-ends unravel.

I can only hope they continue

_to _

_ flare_

_ out._

I’m all caught up, but leave me be.

**I am an ****addict**

These days without you leave me strung out.

My ha...

his eyes remind me of the stars

i love to gaze at in the sky

each night

eyes overflowing with all the poetry i could paint,

forever holding him in my arms

eyes that make everything else in the world

worthless

so entrancing, i am mesmerized constellations drawn in his irises

i live my life mesmerized by him, having memorized everything about him,

so much so that i hear the whispers of

his smooth v...

You hold my hand

“Just in case you get scared”

In the middle of horror movie

But you’re the one terrified

You giggle at my jokes

“Because you’re funny”

But really, she does it for me

And I just can’t lie when I say

I think I found love

In the most wonderful place

It’s the girl that is there for me

Even when I don’t need it

I think I found love

In the girl who just wants me

For who I am

And I ...

In tangled webs of yearning hearts we find,

The tender ache of moments, bittersweet.

Two souls adrift in seas of shared desires,

Where raging passion burns without restraint.

Yet love, a shadowed path of joy and pain,

Where each glance can destroy or melt the heart.

Each touch can hold more power than the sun,

And one harsh word can rip clouds from the sky.

Through nights of whispered dreams and...
