Lavender perfumes the air
And chamomile clouds
Drift amid
The midnight sky
And sweet dreams
Grace her repose
So easy
It seems
To stay lost
In sweet dreams…
No matter how
Wondrous those
Dreams may be
It’s time to wake up
Sleeping Beauty
And make your
Dreams come true.

Jumped into lava
Still not as warm
As your touch

I am not afraid of the darkness
but the shadows that hide within it.
I am not afraid of silence,
but the sounds that eventually break it.

i wrote a lot of great poetry when i was in love
i wrote even better poetry when i was in pain
i wrote the best poetry when i realized that the two emotions were actually the same.

I take you as you are,
Because you were;
Stranger here before me,
Never will I let my eyes
Be seduced by your
Broken road,
Once I was broken too,
And I cannot forget
The past is a glory,
Faithful, haunting,
As it was you were there,
As you are, friend,
I am here!
