You played piano almost as well as you played with my heartstrings.
You live with excitement nobody can echo with a voice
stronger than yours. I was following my heart, as you had
directed me to do. I found myself at your doorstep. You always claimed I'd be the last
person you'd turn away. I can be strong for the both of us and go, but I know
someday I'll find myself wandering back to the light at the end of your drive. I hope
you won't let me in. You were never one to invite strangers inside.
If we meet again, will I have the chance to introduce myself as
someone other than your killer? Murdering you
in my own attempt to destroy myself was never my intention. Speaking to
your back was the only easy way to say "I love you".
I hope you always turn around when you're headed my direction. I hope
you always stay the same. I hope you never forgive me.

Thinking there was nowhere left to go
With tears streaming down her sickly pale cheeks
The torn threads she will not sew
While much needed help she refuses to seek

She plucked each pedal with frigid fingers
Ingested the sweet scent with a nose much too pink
Yet the smell of unforgiving acetone still lingers
Further into loneliness she begins sink

As if she were being lured by an anchor
Down to the bottom for eternity
Now numb, the heavens will take her
And return her endangered sanity

"Oh love... it's funny how such a small word can have a variety of feelings all felt in that one word.
Feelings of ecstasy of wanting you to conquer the entire universe.
Feelings of joy and contentment that allow you to exist and resonate your entire being.
Making you do things you never thought possible.
It can change your world in an instant in the most amazing ways and wreck it all at the same time.
It can be quite hilarious
making you brighten up with a smile that could lighten up an entire city :)
Love can make you feel pangs of jealousy
That sink you into an ocean of sorrow.
It can make you feel low at times , but when you truly know the meaning of love you learn that those feelings are not what matter
with something as powerful as love is , those feelings are consumed by all the positiveness it has to offer.
Love oh how peculiar you can be
Seen through the eyes of those around you
at the same time be so invisible but felt in the soul
Love can be heard in the words  spoken by those we cherish
through the kindness of a stranger
Its experienced through a hug that can lift you higher than anything else
It can be smelled through the essence of another
Tasted through the lips of our significant other
hmmm... it's funny how such a small word like LOVE has a remarkable way of being bigger than anything we could ever imagine."

Your flaws are like stars to me
because I see them in your darkest moments,
I see them when the sun has set
and the night starts to whisper the truths
that you refuse to hear,
and I see them when the sky is clear
from thundering rain clouds.
But you hate the stars at night
and the only star that you learned to love is the sun,
as if its rays are going to love you
for the whole day,
when only it can meet you halfway.
Believe me when I say that,
like luminous bodies in space,
your flaws look beautiful to me.
And I don't want them to go away
because then the sky would be dark,
empty,
honestly boring,
and I wouldn't be able to write this love poem,
trying to appreciate the perfect manner
of your imperfections
by comparing them to something
that is literally out-worldly.

I love the stars
and I love you.
If love is what we're here for,then please dear god give me some more,it's rather nice,I've been there twice but I don't want no more than this,
the kiss that wakes me, as she in beauty takes me and I forsake all of the rest.
The test is always time
I know and she does too ,that what's mine is hers and hers is mine and one more time we kiss before I think we'll kiss some more and then some more again and when the time is due,we'll wander through each others view as if it were our own,build a home,a family,live happily,
I wait to see,
if love is what we're here for.
Do not stand at my grave and weep..
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awake in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star-shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry..
I am not there. I did not die.

I loved
You loved
We loved
But you lost your love
Then found it again
And this pattern went on
For months
You told me everytime
That I was the best thing that ever happened
To you
But I cannot believe those words any longer
Because if I was,
Then why do you leave me everytime
Making me feel like I am the biggest disappointment
That has ever happened to you
