I smelled your shirt tonight
        Remember the one you took off before you left and tossed at me?
Said I could keep it for a memory.
                 It was an accident,
         I didn't want to smell it,
        To
           smell
               you.
     It reminded me of the night before you left,
        We stayed up talking half the night about you leaving,
       being sad but anxious and happy too
         I just
               held
                      you
Watched you sleep, wondered about your dreams
             I didn't sleep that night
        Stayed up all night and cried
               I knew I was gonna miss you
                  And it was gonna hurt so bad
                        To watch you go
But when I just smelled your shirt
            It didn't make me sad
                   Not
                         even
                                mad

It was just another memory
Of the mistakes I've made and learned from
             I've
                   let
                      it all
                            go

I guess I just wanted you to know
      That even if you don't want it,
                 I've
                      forgiven
                              you.

    Tomorrow?
I'm gonna wash that shirt
And *stop thinking about you.

I am told to believe in myself
look past the flaws
imperfections,
because all those things
define the uniqueness
within my body,
my soul
but what I see
when I take that
prolonged, aching glance
into a mirror
as cloudless as a
summer evening
is everything
I am told doesn’t matter
but
how do I ignore veins
crawling up my legs like
the spiders they're named after
or
fat under my skin
that seems to expand so widely
it is impossible for my
eyes not to trip upon it
and
wide hips
unfocused gaze
gaping pores
unshaped lips
rippling marks
etched on my skin
as a form of punishment
for being myself
sloping thighs
feet like
the twin towers
giant
tall
wide
deep
is that what I am?
uncertain
unknown
unloved
but in the end just
“unique”?
human
we’re all just human
but then
why
do I feel
so
mis
understood?
If love means
wanting you to be near me everytime
then i love you
If love means
being jealous but understanding it then i love you
If love means
waiting for you to talk to me
then i love you

If love means
being happy with the little things then i love you
If love means
putting you first before me
then i love you so much.

I do not know anyway else to tell you this
But
If love means
accepting your flaws,
your imperfections,
your mistakes
then i am very much
in love with you.

I love you
Your past
Your present
Your future
I love you
The whole you.
I love you.
Dedicated to someone who has a very special place in my heart..

Hi.
I love you♥

Not so poetic:(
I'm sorry
You know my name
Let me rebrand it
I then, am Joshua.

You are Jericho --
A Jericho in my hands
For God gave you to me
The task is mine now.

I was born to conquer
I was born for this
To utter words of triumph
And exalt and laud
The name above all names.

You are not alone
But I am to *defeat
you
Including your kings
And mighty men of valor
That the proud heart may lose control
Be angry then, yet not sin.

I, Joshua
The one who'll march around the city
And for six days,
That'll be my routine
A discipline for myself
An act of obedience
Of not letting words slip in
From my mouth that once cursed
Yet now, I'm redeemed.

The trumpets we'll blow
And the Lord was with us
The fame now is of the land
Oh victory! Yes, my victory!

At first,
Words were literal.
Hearts were broken,
I mean literal.

You were a brother,
Never meant to get mixed up.
Between a million lies,
We got mixed up.

They see you as a child,
Yet I see more.
I wanted to see the rage
You had stored.

Like a tornado,
Things got out of control.
Like a crescendo,
The damage took it's toll.

See,

I want to show you worlds,
Universes,
Where imagination is real.
Hours are but golden candles,
On a cherrywood wheel.

But we lost our faces,
And fingers were pointed.
Caught in mazes,
We were the unholy anointed.

My apology.
I write it in blood.
My reasoning?
Was a broken love.

A bond,
Shattered by blind hate
Until even holy water became taint.

What happened between us and Her,
That's old.
A hatchet lost forever,
Shattered in the cold.

We were labeled,
Yet I don't see you as a child.
With skills like yours,
It was fun to be wild.

You called out names,
Of course we obliged.
Naturally with these games,
We piled the fire high.

But,

Perspective was lost.
Or was it?
I don't care.
Bury the hatchet, Arcassin.
Lets clear the air.
Let's end this...
