When the world was green and bright we kidnapped our love in glass bottles and named them fireflies.

When the world was happy we followed the moon and the stars; always knowing they would guide us home.

When the stars seemed less shiny and the fireflies somehow got away...I still loved you.

The memories we shared.
The flowers in my hair.
The smile on your face.
The way my heart raced.

When the world was full of compassion and life, we planted our dreams in trees.

When the world showed us the ocean and her mystery, we buried our smiles in the sand.

And when the world started to fall Apart from pollution and creation... I still loved you.

The life in your eyes.
The endless surprise.
The kisses we fought for.
The way our love soared.

So even when the world ends and we aren't sure if we have a next life to begin.... I'll still love you.

Kylie
She was an iceberg
And I, the Titanic
If
I could keep writing you poems you'll never read

Or I could put my pen down and bandage my own heart

Either way, I would still lose because I wouldn't have you
the black and white striped bike made you seem so edgy
that zoomed past when I dare not look
no! I could not ever dare
to the x that stained your hand personally
personality
that changed who you were
(but did it ever)
and the dramatic babble that seeped through
(that was truly just pathetic nonsense)
you spurred about
your sad sad frown
(that grazed my own)
and to your lost eyes
misanthropy,
(from which I’m not sure who dares go)
nor touch nor see
anymore
not
anymore
about an ex. this is for myself. and no one else
She beckons me,
with fickle hand,
in silken gloves,
to her demand.

Her crown above,
Her veiled face
Her body poised,
with noxious grace.

awaiting now,
Her harsh decree,
i kneel down,
beneath Her feet.

Her hands swing down,
Her gloves grow red,
reopens wounds,
already bled.

She sends me off,
i must comply,
such is my lot,
until i die.

i can't prepare,
i simply wait,
for greedy hands,
i know as Fate.
She comes for us all in the dark
