I hate that I need you like thirsty crops need water.
She's obviously happy
Obviously joyful
Obviously peppy
Obviously she's had a happy life
Right?
What isn't obvious is her tears,
the ones she lets flood out after shutting her bedroom door at night.
Her scars she's hidden after the incident.
The "friends" she left behind.
No one knows
She's dying inside
No one knows
How much she wants to jump
How much she wants to pull the trigger
How much is weighing down on her shoulders.
She acts happy
She acts joyful
She acts peppy
She is woeful.
Blood and death fill her thoughts.
Cheer and hope fill her spoken words.

Sometimes my mind wanders
Into vast landscapes of a broken world,
Crushing my brain into tiny pieces,
Or maybe I was in search of a girl,
Wandering in my brain cells,
I know that when my eyes fell it would see a ground zero,
A dark disturbing place,
When the lights go out,
And I fall in love,
These are rough tuesdays,
Sometimes you gotta take off the gloves.

Without writing something I can't leave the website;
Every time I write something new I am enthralled...
When this is so, how can I stop writing at all ever....?

New ideas flourish as and when I develop on some
Matter of some significance that transforms itself
Into something wonderful, when I finish writing it!

I don't know what I am going to write before I write;
But as I proceed on a lot of new and interesting things
Come up in my mind that turn into words in my verse!

The calm looking high Sky and deep sea are eternal
Spring of many wonders we go on brooding anytime
To have something creative in the mill of mind to grind!

The finished product is the birth of a poem everyday we
All can enjoy, appreciate and muse over forever and ever!
The scarf that you took off with a graceful flourish,
From your warm throat, and covered my head
On one beautiful, wintry afternoon long ago;
That memory intensifies and weighs me down,
Like photographs that develop in the darkroom
But are never shown the broad daylight.

My head now stays uncovered with snow;
I wear your scarf on my shoulders.
Betokening my will to carry
The burden of the emptiness,
You left behind with your departure.

I
Would like
To know
The passion of you,
The fire in you,
The freedom to burn freely,
Several things that I would do to get close to you,

(The thing you haven't known by now,
Is that I'm ready to go,
The flower blooms so quick somehow,
Under a blanket of snow,
And if I could take back the things I said,
I swear you gotta know,
Haven't you got a clue my love,
That I love you so)

I
Would like,
To know,
The things that you lack,
That makes you sad,
The signs are so complicated,
Ill never make you feel bad,
I love to make you laugh,

(The thing you haven't known by now,
Is that I'm ready to go,
The flower blooms so quick somehow,
Under a blanket of snow,
And if I could take back the things I said,
I swear you gotta know,
Haven't you got a clue my love,
That I love you so).

The truth hurts when you have to tell a friend,
Sleeping at the bottom of the barrel,
The truth hurts when it's too late to pretend,
Like the people walking around singing Christmas carols,
Sunny days will long for you to arrive,
Even you can't take the heat from the sun,
What will you do when your love is on the run,
No this is not the same or for fun,
This never will come true,
They drift heavily in the eves of the summer,
Sitting there,
I just stare and think,
Taking place in blooming of the flowers,
More than I can say for the others,
This never will come true.

it makes me want to be reckless.
driving my car too fast,
drinking too much,
I’m throwing it all out the window.
I know this has a hold on you.
what I wouldn’t give to hold on to you.
my hands ache like you’re already gone,
like “please let me touch you just one more time”,
like “it’s gonna be too quiet without you here”.
you’re the only thing I care to listen to lately,
and now that I know what you taste like,
now that I know what your skin feels like,
I don't want to feel anything else.
I hate that I fit so easily with you,
I don’t want to trust it
and it scares the **** out of me.
there’s so much of you
and I want all of it.
I want all of you.
