Love isn't what we want
Its never like we imagin
Its not dancing the night away
Or loving till you think you'll brake
Its taking the pieces
Of me
Of you
And putting them together
In a new
More perfect way
Each person leaving you with a piece
Each collecting good and bad
And in this way
Love is a puzzle
Melanie Jackson Feb 2021
Just like a fire
I will light your world
When darkness pulls you under
And sadness holds you
And you grow cold
I will be your fire
Warming you
Holding you tighter then any sadness could ever
And i will be your light
Like a sun
Burning the night sky away
I will be there
When no one else wants to
When pain and brokenness
Leaves its call in your mind
I will leave my call
Screaming louder then the pain could ever
Melanie Jackson Feb 2021
When people are in love
They often say
That they have simply fallen
Perhaps they tripped over there own feet
Falling into there beloveds arms
I however did more
I didn't simply fall into your love
For me you are an ocean
One that is deep and vast
I dived in
Head first
And stayed in your waters
Letting myself drown
Into the waters of your love
Melanie Jackson Feb 2021
And my tommy                 so deserves love,
It makes me happy              to see it glowing all
Around him, glowing      inside him, filling him
Up with a beautiful light. Such brilliant
Light must come from heaven
If such place exists. He
Does believe it
so do
i

But
He is real
A complete gentle
-man a true lover that
Could have only dropped
From the sky when it was blue
And each time i see him my smile
Is ethereal. It makes    me shiver as all up
And down my arms,        a colony of goose
Bumps lifts. And                 suddenly a jab
Of pure happines
Deep in my gut
Melanie Jackson Feb 2021
You and me can make it
We will get to the other side
Like lovers do
I will reach my hands
Into your darkness
Wait for yours to interlock
I will stay with you
Because i know our love is true
I'm not giving up
So i wont let you
Even when were on our last breath
Even if were told theres nothing left
So please don't give up on me
Melanie Jackson Feb 2021
I will fight for you
I will always
Even if my heart turns black and blue
And i will stay with you
Through the dark
Through the light
Through the times it hurts to decide
When you cant see the clear path
I will fight
And i will stay
For you
Melanie Jackson Jan 2021
sometimes while im outside
thinking about you
and the love you give me
as i dance past the trees
                                                                        walking
through the trees
through the woods
remembering the way you hold me
lifting me quick into the air
as i keep holding
                                                                           on
tightly, keeping me safe
while the whole world
buzzes around me
filling all the
                                                                           air
