ADS - Hello Poetry

Playing in the the summertime air
Placed our minds at ease
While our imaginations made a scene
Swinging in the breezy
Smiling and laughing so gleefully
Oh the silly games we use to play
Hide and seek until we couldn't see
Scrapped knees and bee stings
Made me sing mom please help me

Sitting outside in the summertime air
Makes me my mind uneasy
While my imagination screams please
Let me see my computer screen
Anxious to see my apps dance so playfully
I hold back my tears so painfully
I can't see why my parents hate me
They don't buy me anything
No matter how much I scream help me

The other day I was at the doctors and I saw this child who couldn't be five years old crying because his iPad couldn't connect to the internet. Made me think about how great my childhood was compared to what most kids have nowadays.

Traveling Alone (Hiaku)

keep swimming silly
enjoy the lonely silence
just keep being you

First Hiaku. Just trying to expand the types of poetry I write.

What I Want

I want it to be difficult to leave our bed
I want to tell you how beautiful you are everyday
I want to stare in your eyes and fall for you all over again
I want to be able to tell something is bothering you without even asking
I want to surprise you with love notes even in our old age
I want to watch the sun rise and fall with you
I want to travel and see the world with you
I want to feel like we are always at home no matter where we go

I want to have kids
I want to show them what true love is
I want them to feel loved every single day
I want them to wake us up on Christmas morning
I want to see their eyes light up when they open their gifts
I want to surprise them with surprise birthday parties
I want to spoil them
I want them to feel like they can talk to us about anything
I want to see them smile and laugh everyday
I want to be there for them on their bad days
I want motivate them to be great

I want us to communicate our problems
I want us to conquer our demons together
I want us to conquer every obstacle we face together
I want to hold you when you are crying
I want to build one another up during difficult times
I want you to feel perfect no matter your imperfections

Just random thoughts about what I want when it comes to life, marriage, having kids. Until then I am going to keep working as hard as possible so I can have this.

Feeling Alive

Give me your hand
Ill show you the world through my eyes
Its such a beautiful place in disguise

I feel like so many people forget to live. I feel like so many people get so wrapped up in the once I have it then I will be happy mentality. But they fail to see all the great things around them.

Note to Myself

The fire is finally back in your eyes
You really did set yourself on fire
Don't hate yourself for what you did to yourself
It was worth it because sometimes you got to burn yourself
In order to rebuild yourself

Killing The Old Me

Time to dig myself out of this shallow grave
That I have dug for myself
I am tired of telling myself I am...wasn't
Good enough for anyone or myself
Because I cant bring the past back to life
The past is dead and so my old life

In the past I would focus more on others happiness over my own and I became a shell of myself. I have promised myself that I have to focus on myself and everything else will fall into place.

lei

in this case

i don't need you
to tell me
you love me, too.

i just need you
to know
that someone,
in this case, i,
love you so much more
than you ever
could believe was possible.

in the situation i am in,
i know people will tell me
that this is wrong and stupid.

but i don't believe them.

they don't know of the stories
i've written for you.
they don't know of the love
i continue to speak out for you.

and i will continue to speak,
and scream,
and whisper.
because you will never know,
maybe one day,
you'll actually hear me.
