Don’t ask me what I want
Tree branches snap in storms
We didn’t know were coming
And towns flood and flow
From a storm
We didn’t know was coming
And the lighting struck my house
From a storm
I didn't see coming

The fires ember
Forced hurricanes and lightning
Sparks lost won't return.
a simple haiku

I love my bed and my blankets
Because I know they will never leave my side.
Even so, I lay on my floor.

I'll close my door
or maybe slam
to scare away
you and your
friends.

I'll watch my door
and hear your
voice echoing still
in my wandering
halls.

But it isn't locked
it hasn't been
because maybe you'd
want to come
in.
No matter how much i tell myself i wont let you come back, I guess it never works. So ill close my door for you, but i wont lock it.

Her hands were soft and delicate, a carnivore's feast.
The burning ember captivated her gaze, too numb to notice.
Kyoto is a fragile porcelain bowl, cradling centuries of memories.
“Please, let’s go to Kyoto.”
Her eyes meet mine, too lost to be here.
“That’s not my name?”
You never quite listen to me no matter how much I speak. maybe our mouths would be better sewn shut then to let any meaning escape our lips.

The only thing I want is you.

In a world full of rules,
you are the only exception.
You defy all logic
with your love and affection.

Through crowded halls,
and makeup dolls,
I catch your glance
for once, maybe ill have
a chance.

Im hypnotized by loves affair
and let you label me ***** air.
My dreams came true
were stuck by glue
until my eyes are opened by you.

Ive waited and wasted
my time is through
the only thing I don't want.
is you.
a poem for people who love so hard just to be bitten by the world's harsh reality.

To the end
I longed for you
Since the day we met
looking but not caring
Until you left.

You stained my heart
With sharp needles
Im haunted, but I think
I got what I wanted.

Each time I stay awake
The only thing on my mind
Is you and how you
Could be Thinking about me too.

And you will always be shadows
Memories left to be forgotten.
But I think
I got what I wanted,
From the start.
