it's an ambrosia
a heavenly drink.
one is going to die
in the depthless
river of sadness
poetry is the
canoe
which will come
floating towards
and save
poetry is  the
only solution
for one who is
overflowed with
happiness
due to the
magical creations
of mother nature
may be due to the
wordless love
take a sip of poetry
you'll feel you're alive
poets live magically
though others live non-
its a boon
and it is a blessing
one who has powers
to heal the hearts of others
is the poet
who let the readers
to take a sip of true poetry
People say you fall in love
I like to think I flew.
The only fall I've ever felt
Is getting over you.

|b.g.|
Late nights, short poems, and working through the same feelings in different memories.
i have not heard your variation
in quite a while nor have i seen
a laugh in your smile.

She sighed into the cold air
Watching her breath

She hoped someday
Somehow she wouldn't feel
Like this
So in love with love

She hoped when she whispered
"I love you" into the night
That one day
It wouldn't be unanswered

She was so tired
Of loving so much
To be used and left
She was tired of lies
And of being alone

She felt like he had to be out there or maybe she had already met him and he was one of the people who left her

She wasn't quite sure
She wasn't sure of anything
She was lost
But she was still full of love
Even if she had no one

She sighed and whispered
"Someday"
Because no matter how the world breaks her she will always find love and she will always find hope.
hand sewing everything with thread tied in knots
putting patterns in places they don't belong
binding them together in desperation
but it seems the thread of life was unable
to keep my patchwork from tearing apart at the seams
in a club at school we have to creatively express ourselves by writing a poem, drawing, singing, or acting out an emotion. I wanted this to be for sadness but I'd need to add more and I felt it was good like this. maybe this could be stressed out cuz they're trying so hard to put their life back together but nothing seems to work...
